City break in July

[tinkywinkyshandbag]

We're not having a family holiday this year but would like to do a city break, early July, not Amsterdam or Paris. Us and two DDs aged 20 and 17. Somewhere with plenty to do, restaurants, etc and not too hot! Looked at Copenhagen but flights very £££. Would love any other suggestions please.

What about Berlin?

Vienna is lovely.. Lots to do!

Palma? Fantastic city and you could still get a bit of beach time too if you wanted to?

Berlin or Budapest would be my choices - my late teens loved the baths in Budapest and eating out was cheap and cheerful.

Taormina in Sicily. Not sure about the heat but it's dramatically on the coast and has a lovely bustling late evening vibe. We stayed at a wonderful split level hotel with a restaurant and pool right by the ocean.

Lisbon or Prague

Thank you some great ideas going to look for flights first and then decide. First holiday since 2018 so looking forward to it!

Barcelona, Malaga, Rome

We did a week in Oslo. It was amazing. Shortish flight, great weather - swimming in the sea weather. Lots to do.

Munich, but it can get warm in the summer but plenty to do

Rome would be hot and I guess Budapest would have similar temperatures in July, they would have been my suggestions

I’d head for northern cities to try and stay out of the heat, but Oslo will not be any cheaper than Copenhagen

Belgium would be cooler so there touristy cities, but not so much to do. Brussels has some great sights and swimming complex

Munich. There’s lots to do. You can do a day trip to the mountains too.

Budapest is amazing. Loads to do and very cool and family friendly all at the same time.
Very hot in summer but lots of fountains/swimming pools/baths.

Munich, Oslo, Strasbourg, Rotterdam, Lisbon

hi @IdblowJonSnow do you have any tips for where to eat/ go for family friendly food please, we're off to Budapest in a few weeks with 10&12 year olds.Thanks

We've done Porto in July, lots to do, beach if you want and not too hot!

I really adored Athens. So much history and such an elegant city! Also excellent dining facilities.
