The first months of the year are usually the most complicated, because we leave behind a period of intense vacations to face the longest stage before returning to enjoy days of rest. For this reason, many people are starting to prepare well in advance for the Easter vacations, which this year will be celebrated during the first week of April. In this article, we tell you the best destinations in Europe to travel to at Easter.
5 ideal destinations for Easter travel
Easter is one of the holiday periods where more people travel outside their home country. All those who add two or three additional days of vacation to the two days of official vacation can take advantage of the 9 days and get together to visit attractive European destinations. Here are 5 ideas for Easter travel this year:
Italy
Whether to visit Rome in depth or to take an unforgettable drive through northern Italy, this country is one of the best options for travel at Easter. An idea to take advantage of this week is to take a trip starting in Milan, renting a car in this Italian city and driving down to Florence, ending in Pisa. Another option, of course, is to take a drive through Tuscany starting in Pisa, one of the most beautiful regions of Europe.
Germany
Our second suggestion is one of the most romantic: the Fairy Tale Route in Germany. Starting in Frankfurt and ending in Hamburg you can visit the regions where many of the fairy tales of the Brothers Grimm are set.
The land of Little Red Riding Hood, Rapunzel's tower, the famous city of the Pied Piper of Hamelin or the imposing Bremen and its musicians are some of the mandatory stops on this beautiful route. And, best of all, you can rent a car in Frankfurt on the day of your arrival and leave it in our store in Hamburg when you need to leave.
Croatia
Seeing the entire coast of Croatia from Zagreb to Dubrovnik is a dream trip that can be done in 10 days renting your own vehicle. Starting with the Croatian capital, popularly known as "little Vienna", we recommend spending a couple of days in Zagreb and then start heading down. The Plitvice Lakes, the city of Zadar and Split are three of the most recommended stops.
In fact, Split is one of the best-known regions in Croatia for its gastronomy, and a good city to try oysters. Finally,the route ends in Dubrovnik, an almost paradisiacal place that has become famous all over the world for being the location for King's Landing in the Game of Thrones TV series.
Choose OK Mobility to rent your car in Dubrovnik, Split or Zagreb.
Portugal, a great destination to travel to at Easter
As Spain’s neighbor, this country has many tourist attractions that are worth visiting, and exploring it in 9-10 days is a good idea to get to know the Portuguese culture in depth. So, you can start your route in Porto, one of the most cosmopolitan cities in Portugal, and go down to Coimbra. On this route, it is highly recommended to stop in Aveiro, a small coastal town that is known for its traditional colorful houses.
From Coimbra, a city with great culture, you can travel along the coast to Nazaré, Sintra, Cascais and, finally, Lisbon. In the Portuguese capital you can spend a couple of days to get to know it well and finish your tour in style.
Greece
The final destination we propose is Greece, a country that combines history, culture and multiple traditions, and is ideal to visit within 10 days. In fact, there are two great travel alternatives to enjoy this country.
One of them is to tour the entire northern area, landing in Thessalonikiand not forgetting to visit Vergina. You can also choose to arrive in Athens, visit the Greek capital, rent a car and tour the Peloponnese area in the south of the country. In this case, it is advisable to choose one of the two routes in order to make the most of the time available.
In any case, there are many interesting options to travel during Easter. And, in all of them, it is possible to reduce costs and organize the trip your way if you decide to rent a car at your destination. This way, you will have more mobility to stop wherever you want, and you can travel more economically.
