Travel to Europe: The safest winter destinations after the pandemic

The coronavirus has drastically changed many areas of our lives, including our ability to travel. Hoping for a gradual improvement in the near future, here is a list of a trip to Europe: the ten safest winter destinations after the pandemic. We hope this list inspires you for a wonderful winter trip this year!

Helsinki (Finland)

Helsinki, the capital of Finland, is a vibrant seaside town with beautiful islands and lovely neighbourhoods. It has a beautiful and unique rhythm with dynamic food, design, architecture, and many saunas! It is the largest city in Finland, and the metropolitan area is home to 1.4 million people. Its pace is relaxed, and the city is easily accessible. The capital is built on a junction with other towns and exciting attractions. These include the neighbouring cities of Espoo and Vantaa, the historic town of Porvoo, the Järvenpää-Tuusula area – famous for its artistic heritage – as well as the villages west of Helsinki known for their ironwork.

Edinburgh (Scotland)

The capital of Scotland is one of the most picturesque and memorable cities in Europe. Edinburgh has a rare charm with narrow and cobbled streets. The city is also known for its majestic buildings, castles and gardens, its countless fascinating museums and, in particular, its polite and open locals. Tourists can also visit a whiskey distillery and learn how Scotland’s national drink is made or discover how the Scots lived during the Middle Ages.

Krakow (Poland)

The former royal capital of Poland effortlessly combines medieval glory and spectacle with modern student entertainment into a harmonious ensemble. Krakow accumulates all the tremendous European architectural styles – Romanesque, Gothic, Renaissance, Baroque and Art Nouveau – which will surely impress architecture lovers and more.

Zagreb (Croatia)

Although it is the capital of Croatia, Zagreb is sometimes overlooked as a destination by visitors to the country, which is a shame because it has a lot to offer! Sure, it does not have the Adriatic Sea or the beaches, but it has many excellent attractions, many restaurants, cafes and bars, many entertainment and regular events, a vast selection of accommodation and it is very easily accessible from elsewhere in Europe. Zagreb is also called the city of museums, as their number per square meter is more significant than any other city in the world.

Reykjavik (Iceland)

The northernmost capital of the world combines colourful buildings, impressive design, and exceptional nightlife. Reykjavik is impressively cosmopolitan in size. Compared to London or Paris, it is just a city with international standards, but it is full of exquisite art, rich gastronomic options, and cool cafes and bars. Cafés are converted daily into restaurants and bars in the evening. Tours and services abound, and it is definitely worth enjoying the nature that surrounds it! Even if you come to Reykjavik for a short visit, be sure to take a trip to the countryside.

Alpe d’Huez (France)

The last destination is the most special because the Alpe d’Huez is a winter resort in France that guarantees endless moments of fun and safety. The total 249 km of ski slopes guarantee your ultimate enjoyment with your favourite sport in the company of those close to you. With a rich network of elevators, you can be transported throughout its vast area, while you can discover the unique beauty of its six main villages. There is also the most significant ski slope in Europe, with a total length of 16 km, while the most experienced skiers can enjoy a substantial off-piste skiing area. You can choose to stay in the central resort of the site, trusting the company Erna Low, which will plan and organize for you all the necessary actions to enjoy this unique destination without significant and unnecessary expenses that you will bear.
