June marks the start of summer in the Northern Hemisphere, offering ideal weather for various types of holidays, from sun-drenched island escapes to vibrant city breaks and cultural experiences. This time of year boasts long daylight hours and pleasant temperatures across many European destinations, making it perfect for exploring.

 

Ionian Island Hopping

For a classic Greek island experience, the Ionian islands of Lefkas and Meganissi offer a perfect blend of stunning beaches, lush green landscapes, and authentic Greek charm. Our 7 night twin-centre Ionian holiday offers an ideal mix of adventure and tranquillity, allowing you to experience the best of both islands in one trip.

Lefkas is connected to the mainland by a causeway, making it easily accessible. It is famous for its spectacular western coastline, home to some of Greece's most photographed beaches. The island offers excellent windsurfing and kitesurfing opportunities, particularly in Vassiliki and Nidri. The main town, Lefkas Town, provides a pleasant atmosphere with charming pedestrian streets and a marina. Just a short ferry ride from Lefkas, Meganissi is smaller, quieter, and offers a more tranquil escape. Its name means "big island," though it is relatively small. The island features picturesque harbours like Vathy and Spartochori, known for their traditional tavernas and relaxed pace of life. It’s an ideal spot for sailing, exploring hidden coves, and enjoying unspoiled nature.

Sweden

June 6th is Sweden's National Day, a vibrant celebration across the country, with Stockholm hosting major events. Visiting during early June allows you to experience the festive atmosphere, long "midsummer light" days, and the beauty of the capital.

The celebrations often feature parades, music, and free admission to sites like Skansen, the open-air museum. Stockholm, built across 14 islands, is a beautiful city to explore, offering: the historic Gamla Stan (Old Town), the Vasa Museum, home to a salvaged 17th-century warship and pleasant ferry trips between the islands. Our 7 night Stockholm and her archipelago holiday offers 3 nights in Sweden's capital and 4 nights on the island of Uto.

Girona by train

For an adventurous and sustainable journey, consider travelling from London to Girona, Spain, entirely by train. Our 7 night Girona by train holiday allows you to enjoy the changing European landscape while avoiding airport hassle.

The journey typically involves taking the Eurostar from London St Pancras to Paris, followed by a high-speed TGV train from Paris to Girona. Girona, the capital of its province in Catalonia, offers a rich history, medieval architecture, and a buzzing culinary scene. It is often less crowded than Barcelona but provides similar Catalan charm, including its impressive cathedral and the colourful houses lining the Onyar River.

Verona

For a dose of high culture, Verona in Italy hosts the annual Arena di Verona Opera Festival, which typically starts in June. The festival takes place in the magnificent Roman amphitheatre, the Arena di Verona, providing an unparalleled, atmospheric setting for world-class opera performances.

Our 3 night Verona and the opera itinerary includes tickets for the event as well as providing plenty of free time for independent sightseeing. Do not miss Piazza dell’ Erbe, the Lamberti Tower and Castelvecchio, not to mention, of course, Juliet’s balcony.

Dubrovnik and the island of Korcula

Croatia offers a spectacular coastline and historic cities. Our twin-centre holiday combining the iconic city of Dubrovnik with the laid-back island of Korčula is ideal for a June break.

Known as the "Pearl of the Adriatic," Dubrovnik's ancient city walls, marble streets, and Baroque buildings are breathtaking. June offers pleasant weather for walking the city walls and exploring the historic Old Town, a UNESCO World Heritage site. A short ferry ride away, the island of Korčula offers a slower pace. Korčula Town is a beautiful medieval walled town often nicknamed "Little Dubrovnik." The island is known for its dense forests, vineyards producing excellent local wines (such as Grk and Pošip), and pristine swimming spots. It provides a perfect contrast to the bustling city life of Dubrovnik.
