We love Brussels – it’s full of history and amazing architecture, all set alongside a modern city packed with things to do (and, some excellent pubs with some great Belgian beers). Brussels is compact, walkable and split into a few very different pockets: the storybook lanes around Grand Place, elegant Sablon, boutique-heavy Avenue Louise and…
Malta is packed with centuries of history, mixing Baroque architecture, ancient temples, and a hint of North African charm. There are so many different areas to stay on the island and with so many options it can be hard to find the best hotels in Malta. Malta’s compact size also makes it easy to hop…
We went to Lisbon towards the end of our tour of Portugal, and we loved it – its packed with things to do and it was easily one of the highlights of our trip. It’s a modern and trendy city with plenty going on, but still packed with old-world charm and culture. It’s a maze…

Porto’s beauty is split across its hillsides: Ribeira along the Douro with views that never get old, lively Baixa with nightlife and shopping, arty Cedofeita, wine-soaked Gaia, and beachy Foz do Douro. Choosing the right area makes all the difference – Porto’s hills and cobbles mean a “10 minute walk” on the map can feel…
Nestled along the banks of the Douro River, Porto, Portugal’s second-largest city, offers a beautiful blend of historic charm, culture, and amazing food. From its narrow streets in the historic centre to the rich, world-famous port wine cellars in Vila Nova de Gaia, this coastal city is perfect for those looking to enjoy both tradition…
The South of France is a dream destination – from sun-soaked beaches to charming medieval villages and incredible food and wine. The hard part isn’t “should we go?”, it’s “how do we choose where to go?” When we first started planning our trip, we had about 30 tabs open and no clear plan: Which towns…
Monaco has a reputation for being wildly expensive – 30% of it’s popular are millionaires, and it’s whole economy is based on glamour and the super rich. But you can also see the Prince’s Palace, wander Le Rocher, and watch the superyachts without draining your savings. In this guide you’ll get: the best months for…
Monaco is one of those places everyone knows of, but far fewer people really know what to do with once they get there. Most people turn up expecting superyachts, sports cars and the Monte Carlo Casino, which is pretty much all we knew about Monaco. But it’s also a real country, with an old town…
