In just a few hours by plane (or a few days behind the wheel) you can go from the Norwegian fjords to the beaches of Greece, from Alpine peaks to Portugal&#8217;s stretch of the Atlantic. And the best part? <strong>You can visit most countries without a visa, using euros or a card, and with no long-haul flights<\/strong>, so even a long weekend fits in nicely.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">On this page we&#8217;ll help you <strong>choose a country<\/strong>. Below the text you&#8217;ll find a grid of specific countries with our guides, tour offers and stories from the road. We&#8217;ve travelled a good chunk of Europe, from Iceland to Albania, and here we sum up the practical bits: <strong>when to go, how to pick by the type of holiday you want, and where you can save<\/strong>.

id=\"kdy-jet\">When to visit Europe<\/h2>\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>The best season in Europe depends on whether you&#8217;re heading south or north.<\/strong> The Mediterranean (Italy, Spain, Greece, Croatia, Portugal, Montenegro, Albania) has the most pleasant weather in <strong>May, June and September<\/strong>. The sea is already (or still) holding its warmth, but without the peak crowds or the searing heat of July and August. If you&#8217;re purely after swimming and the crowds don&#8217;t bother you, high summer works too \u2014 just expect higher prices and temperatures above 35 \u00b0C.<\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>The north and the mountains have a shorter window.<\/strong> Norway, Iceland, Finland or the Swiss and Austrian Alps are best for hiking and trekking from <strong>June to September<\/strong>, when the roads and trails are clear of snow. The Nordic countries come with a summer bonus of long days, and in autumn and winter the chance of seeing the northern lights. Cities (France, Germany, Poland, the Netherlands, Hungary) are great year-round \u2014 <strong>spring and early autumn offer sensible temperatures and prices<\/strong>, while Advent brings the atmosphere of the Christmas markets.<\/p>\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"jak-vybrat\">How to choose a country<\/h2>\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Before you start pinning down specific places, we recommend getting clear on <strong>what you mainly want from your holiday<\/strong>. With that in mind, choosing a country gets much easier:<\/p>\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li><strong>Sea and beaches:<\/strong> Croatia and Montenegro by car, Greece for laid-back island life, Albania as a cheaper tip, and Portugal or Spain for the Atlantic option.<\/li><li><strong>Mountains and trekking:<\/strong> Switzerland and Austria for the classic Alps, Slovenia as a smaller and more affordable alternative, Norway and Iceland for wild nature, and Georgia and Slovakia for mountains at a reasonable price.<\/li><li><strong>Cities and culture:<\/strong> France, Italy and the Netherlands for the classics, Poland, Hungary and Romania for less money, Germany and Denmark for easy long weekends.<\/li><li><strong>Nature and quiet:<\/strong> Finland and Iceland for silence and space, Ireland for green coastlines.<\/li><\/ul>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Budget makes a big difference.<\/strong> The priciest are Norway, Iceland, Switzerland and the Nordic countries. On the other hand, <strong>you get the most for your money in Albania, Romania, Poland, Hungary or Georgia<\/strong>. If you&#8217;re not sure, click on a specific country in the grid below \u2014 for each one we have a practical guide with prices and tips from the road.<\/p>\n\n\n<!-- LK_DEST_ARTICLES start -->\n<div class=\"lk-dest\" id=\"clanky\"><div class=\"lk-dest-h\">Guides and tips: Europe<\/div><div class=\"lk-dest-arts\">\n<a class=\"lk-dest-acard\" href=\"https:\/\/loudavymkrokem.cz\/en\/budapest-thermal-baths\/\"><div class=\"lk-dest-aphoto\"><img src=\"https:\/\/loudavymkrokem.cz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/05\/Szecheney_pool-768x1024.jpg\" alt=\"Budapest Thermal Baths: 8 Best Spas + Practical Guide for 2026\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" title=\"\"><\/div><div class=\"lk-dest-abody\"><div class=\"lk-dest-atitle\">Budapest Thermal Baths: 8 Best Spas + Practical Guide for 2026<\/div><div class=\"lk-dest-aex\">Discover the best thermal baths in Budapest with us, from Ottoman hammams to rooftop hot tubs, including current pric\u2026<\/div><span class=\"lk-dest-ago\">Read \u2192<\/span><\/div><\/a>\n<a class=\"lk-dest-acard\" href=\"https:\/\/loudavymkrokem.cz\/en\/where-stay-albufeira-portugal\/\"><div class=\"lk-dest-aphoto\"><img src=\"https:\/\/loudavymkrokem.cz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/pine-cliffs-a-luxury-collection-resort-768x414.jpg\" alt=\"Where to Stay in Albufeira, Portugal: 13 Best Hotels for 2026\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" title=\"\"><\/div><div class=\"lk-dest-abody\"><div class=\"lk-dest-atitle\">Where to Stay in Albufeira, Portugal: 13 Best Hotels for 2026<\/div><div class=\"lk-dest-aex\">Planning a holiday in Albufeira, Portugal?
