Sirmione. What was once an idyllic Italian village on Lake Garda has become a real tourist trap. The village is ruined by its own success if you ask me. However, because the castle Rocca Scaligera is an impressive sight, I think you shouldn’t skip the village. So go in town, and get out asap.
In theory, the Italian city of Lucca (in Tuscany) is small enough for a day trip. However, in reality, a day is much too short. Because yes, in a day I get a reasonable idea of the city, but I now I want to come back one more time to really get to know this orange and red-colored town. So, if you only have a few hours too, these are Lucca’s highlights.
It is almost a shame to only stay in the city during a visit to Trento. Almost, because it is a fantastic city to explore. If you do want to discover the area, try one of these 5 day trips.
Alcúdia is a favorite holiday destination for sun-sea-beach lovers. No wonder: there are no less than 10 kilometers of sandy beach. A day trip is a good idea if you stay at a different island place. Combine the beach with visiting the old town and the colorful sculpture garden.
The Formentor peninsula on Mallorca guarantees an outing full of ohs and ahs because it is beautiful. The raging sea of waves hits the enormous cliffs, and the sharp turns challenge drivers and cyclists. You’ll be amazed by the spectacle, so definitely put Formentor on your Mallorca bucket list!
