Maximize your time off in 2025 with these 30 weekend getaways to European destinations, ideal for exploring cities without taking extended vacations.
With many people dreaming of seeing more of the world in 2025, people will seek to maximise their leave. Experts often advise using Bank Holiday weekends and aligning annual leave to maximise up to 55 days of annual leave. But that tactic often means more expensive travel plans, as well as limiting the number of countries a person can visit. Rather than tagging on annual leave to Bank Holidays, if you’re flying from Manchester or London you can visit these 30 locations.
Hadleigh Diamond, commercial director of Luxury Airport Transfer specialist SCS Chauffeurs said “Extreme day trips are becoming a popular way to see key cities without having to take time off work, or fit travel around other responsibilities. Beyond Extreme Day Trips, there are also several countries in Europe where you can pop over the border to see another nation, meaning ticking two countries in one . Whilst you’ll never fully see a country in a day, these trips can be a great taster for future travel plans. The key for weekend getaways is to ensure excellent airport transfers to maximise your time in the city you're visiting.” Here are the 30 trips you can take in 2025 using your annual leave: Some of the trips are just for one country, however, the benefit of travelling in Europe is that several countries are incredibly close to one another. For example, your third trip includes Bratislava in Slovakia and Vienna in Austria, while your fourth trip is for Monaco and Nice in France. One trip involves travelling to three countries which are located right beside each other, they are: Dubrovnik in Croatia, Kotor in Montenegro and Mostar in Bosni
