If you favor strolling quaint towns or exploring a bustling city to soak up local flavor, these destinations offer a variety of experiences. The colorful capital of Iceland, Reykjavik, is home to 2/3rds of the population and is alive with design, art galleries, and museums. Kalfafell, on the other hand, is a small hamlet in the Southeast with a quaint atmosphere and incredible hiking opportunities. Of course, Ireland’s busiest city and its capital is Dublin- a historic city filled with lively music-filled pubs.

If the nightlife is not your speed, there are plenty of museums, historic buildings, and breweries to fill your day. Alternatively, County Cork’s Kinsale is a fishing village known for its excellent restaurants. Scotland’s capital city, Edinburgh, blends medieval charm with its imposing hilltop castle along with a sophisticated city vibe. For golf enthusiasts, a visit to the charming St. Andrews is a must. Not only famous for its courses, but also for Scotland’s oldest university, University of St. Andrews.
