Subject: Where to Travel in Europe This Summer: A Month-by-Month Guide!

Hi Friend,

Did you know that the perfect summer trip isn’t just about where you go, but when you go?

Some cities are magical in early June before the crowds arrive, while others reach their peak in July or August, when the atmosphere is electric and the long summer days are filled with adventure.

Some are best explored when the streets are still quiet, while coastal gems truly shine when the beaches and towns are buzzing with life. The trick is knowing which destination belongs to which month—and that’s where we come in.

We don’t just plan trips; we craft experiences that feel effortless and unforgettable. Whether you’re looking for the perfect seaside escape, a cultural city break, or a little bit of both, we’ll design an itinerary that ensures you experience each place at its absolute best.

Let’s make this summer one to remember—where will your journey take you?

JUNE

Hallstatt, Austria

June marks the start of summer in Austria, and it's the ideal time to visit Hallstatt. The weather is mild and the daylight hours are long, making it ideal for outdoor activities like hiking, swimming, and boating. With fewer tourists than the peak months of July and August, you can explore this UNESCO World Heritage site without the typical summer crowds, allowing for a more relaxed and intimate experience.

The surrounding mountains offer a variety of hiking trails with breathtaking views of the village and Lake Hallstatt. For those looking to cool off, a swim in the lake is an excellent way to enjoy the refreshing alpine waters. You can also take a boat ride across the lake for stunning views of the picturesque town nestled between the peaks.

For a more adventurous side of Hallstatt, explore the Salzwelten salt mines or visit the Dachstein Giant Ice Cave, where you can admire incredible ice formations. Whether you’re interested in outdoor exploration, cultural history, or simply soaking up the serene atmosphere, June is the perfect month to discover all that Hallstatt has to offer.

JULY

MYKONOS, GREECE

July is the perfect time to visit Mykonos, Greece, when the island comes alive with sun-drenched days, warm Aegean breezes, and vibrant nightlife. Whether you’re exploring the charming streets of Matogianni, where world-renowned fashion boutiques await, or taking in the island’s rich history at Manto Square, Mykonos in July offers the ideal blend of culture, adventure, and relaxation. With clear blue skies and long summer days, it’s the perfect season to discover the iconic windmills, stroll through Little Venice, and soak in the beauty of the whitewashed Cycladic architecture.

For those seeking adventure, a Jeep safari unveils the island’s hidden gems, from the remote beaches of Agios Sostis to the historic ruins of Paleokastro. Or, set sail on a traditional Greek Kaiki boat and cruise the crystalline waters of the Aegean, stopping at secluded beaches like Frangias for a swim and a seaside picnic with Greek delicacies. If conditions allow, cross over to the mesmerizing island of Dragonissi, where mineral-rich caves create an ethereal glow in the water.

And for the ultimate relaxation, unwind at the elegant Scorpios Beach Club, where bohemian luxury meets laid-back island vibes. Enjoy a refreshing dip, sip on craft cocktails, and take in the breathtaking sunset views in a serene atmosphere. Whether you're in search of tranquility or adventure, July in Mykonos is simply unforgettable.

August is the perfect time to visit Marseille, when the city buzzes with energy, and the Mediterranean waters are at their most inviting. As France’s oldest city, Marseille offers the perfect blend of vibrant urban life and stunning coastal beauty.
