Portugal
Algarve
Reliable sun from spring to autumn, short transfers from Faro airport and beaches for every mood, from busy to almost empty.
Portugal
Lisbon
One of the easiest European capitals for a short trip: compact, affordable by Western European standards and pleasant even in winter.
Portugal
Porto
A two or three night trip works perfectly here. Everything worth seeing sits within a 30 minute walk of the river.
Spain
Barcelona
If you cannot decide between a city break and the coast, this settles the argument without a second flight.
Spain
Mallorca
Everything is within an hour's drive, which makes it unusually efficient for a one week trip with mixed interests.
Greece

Featured destinations
Places we keep coming back to
Full guides with what to do, where to stay, how to get around and what it realistically costs.
Portugal
Algarve
Portugal's southern coast: sandstone cliffs, hidden coves and small towns that stay pleasant well outside July and August.
Portugal
Lisbon
A capital that feels smaller than it is. Tiled facades, viewpoints on every hill and a food scene that rewards wandering.
Portugal
Porto
Steep, granite and unpretentious. Porto is smaller than Lisbon, cheaper, and arguably better for a first weekend in Portugal.
Spain
Barcelona
Architecture, sea and late dinners. Barcelona is one of the few major cities where a beach day and a museum day fit into the same trip.
Spain
Mallorca
Package resorts on one coast, mountain villages and empty coves on the other. Mallorca is far more varied than its reputation.
Greece
Crete
Greece's largest island: Venetian harbours, mountain villages, gorges and some of the best beaches in the Mediterranean.
Travel problems
When something goes wrong
Clear next steps for the situations that cost people the most time and money.
Change your trip
What to check before you pay a change fee, and when rebooking is the cheaper route.
Change travel dates
Shifting a whole trip means flights, accommodation and any prepaid extras, in that order.
Cancel your reservation
Cancellation outcomes depend on the supplier's terms, not on how the trip feels.
Find another flight
When a flight disappears, speed matters more than finding the perfect option.
Check airline policies
Policies vary widely between airlines, fare types and regions. Always verify your own ticket.
Find accommodation
Late accommodation searches go better when you fix the area first and the price second.
Plan a new trip
Sometimes the fix is not repairing the old plan but building a simpler one.
Reviews
What travellers say
I had four days off and no idea what to do with them. I described the kind of break I wanted and got three options back the same day. Porto was the right call, and the notes about which side of the river to stay on saved us a lot of walking.
Marta KaczmarekWeekend trip to PortoTravelling with a five year old changes everything. The advice was practical, not glossy: short transfer, a quiet beach, and a place with a kitchen. We actually rested for once.
Daniel ReyesFamily beach week, AlgarveUseful and honest. They told me one of the destinations I was considering would be too quiet for what I wanted, which I appreciated. Ended up in Lisbon and I have already booked to go back.
Aisha BelloSolo city breakOur outbound flight got moved by nine hours and I did not know where to start. I got a clear explanation of the options and which one to take. No drama, no waiting on hold for hours.
Tomas NovakFlight change assistanceThe guide was better than the guidebook I bought. Small things, like eating away from the main square and going out early, made the trip feel like ours rather than a queue.
Elena FischerAnniversary trip to VeniceI wanted somewhere easy for a first trip back. Got a straight answer and a short checklist. Only thing I would change is that I should have stayed two nights longer.
