About this title

Synopsis

Would you love to travel more, immerse yourself in fascinating and diverse cultures and tick some destinations off your bucket list? But perhaps a lack of money and time make you feel travel is not an option right now.

Think again! A shortage of funds and time need not be a barrier from enjoying a trip abroad.

Thousands of people just like you have discovered the joy of 'Extreme Day Tripping'. This involves sampling the best of what the many and varied countries of Europe have to offer, often for less than the cost of a train fare between two British cities, in a single day (or at a push, just one night away).

Join thousands of other travellers who thrive on the challenge of spending a day travelling to and from a foreign destination. Should flight times or other reasons render a same-day return impossible, they may return the following day. The general idea though, is that an extreme day trip is a micro trip. A condensed holiday of sorts with the usual delicious sense of excitement and anticipation before exploring a new place and sampling the best it has to offer but without incurring the higher costs of pricey accommodation and committing the necessary extra days that longer trips require. Anyone living near an international airport or railway station anywhere in Europe is able to jump on board this popular new type of foreign travel.

Does all this sound fascinating, if a little daunting? Fear not. The information within this book is intended to serve as a supportive guide to day tripping abroad. Even if you’ve never travelled abroad before you will learn all you need to book a bargain-priced flight and be in possession of every scrap of know-how required to design and experience your first fantastic trip.

This book features three main parts:

Practical Matters - a step-by-step guide to finding and booking budget flights (or international trains or coaches where feasible) as well as help on lots of other practical matters, even for complete newbies to foreign travel.

Destination Guides - be inspired by guides to over 50 cities in Europe. Each features a selection of places of interest as well as an all-important summary of how to reach the city from the airport (or train/ coach terminal).

50 Bonus Travel Tips - to help gain the maximum value and enjoyment from your trip, check out these bonus tips in the final section. A mix of practical and money savers.

What are you waiting for? Join the thousands of individuals who are already enjoying exciting European day trips and discover what you have been missing out on!
