' City Breaks Travel Weekend and Short Breaks '<<>> Cheap city breaks are not always the best but I believe value for money is, so that is what I seek out. I like to get the most value for my money. Cheap conveys shoddy or below par and there are plenty of those around in all price ranges. I’m sure that for your short or weekend breaks you will prefer true value for money travel. A bargain.
I have paid small and I have paid big but the most satisfaction has come from getting great value for the money I've paid out. Value is everything ... Scroll down for city list.
Also, you can find cheap city breaks near to where you live or you can travel further afield. Short or weekend city breaks enables you to get a flavour of the city you have chosen to visit; therefore if it isn't to your taste you haven't wasted too much time. However, if you love it and don't have time to see everything you can re-visit for another short break or a longer time. The first thing to decide is what are you particularly interested in. If you don't have a particular interest then the world is your oyster. You can choose many value for moneybreaks.If you love to shop then London and New York have to be at the top of the list, of course there is more to these cities than shops so you can take a break from shopping. For the romantic break the obvious choices are Paris or Venice. For the more culturally inclined how could you beat Rome or Florence? For something exotic there is Cairo, Marrakech, or, further afield Kuala Lumpur ... yes! For those who love music there are lots of different festivals but possibly the best known is Verona. On a personal note I have enjoyed all the above cities I have visited. If I have to pick just one, not easy, it would be Rome.
This city has history, art (indoors & out), good food, mostly good weather and the atmosphere is great because the people are generally very friendly and welcoming, although it can be expensive-be careful where you sit down to eat. I will write more in depth about my bargain city breaks and give you as much information as you need to make a choice to suit you and also a few tips that may help with choosing hotels etc and getting the best value from your city breaks or your weekend breaks. One very important tip is to be organised, make a timetable of things you want to see and do in order of priority and reserve tickets if needed before you go. This may sound very obvious but it is surprising how much time can be wasted deciding what to do once you are there. You need to be organised on your short breaks. When we were last in Rome we reserved tickets for entrance to the Villa Borghesi as we had read that only a certain number was allowed in at one session that lasted for a stated time. Some people were just turning up and many did not get in Also do some research, we find this to be as enjoyable as the break itself as when you start to look at what there is to do in your chosen city it’s as though the break has already begun. You often come across unexpected little things that add so much to the break. For instance, when we were going to Venice we read about the Ghetto island where Jewish people were made to live when they escaped various countries that were expelling in the 13 century i.e. England for one, this is the backdrop to 'The Merchant of Venice' They were locked in at sundown and this is where the general term ghetto came from. We had an interesting and moving time on our visit thanks to a little research. We all love to travel and take great city breaks, anywhere. We also, love to take city breaks in our own Country. Wherever you live do not think that the best places to visit must always be in another Country. We all have wonderful and rich places to visit on our doorstep, which we neglect simply for that reason. Of course, it is so interesting to visit other Countries, to see how they live, eat, relax and what their particular culture is like.
It is so easy to book airline tickets, hotels, entrance tickets, even taxis, from the comfort of your own living room.
What could be better than having a comfortable seat, a glass of wine and some background music while you make a short list from the many city breaks on offer. Well, I'm convinced so let me see, which of the many worthwhile city breaks shall we do next ... ...Go on take your pick!
