Paris
France · 1h35 nonstop from Dublin
Why Paris
Paris is one of the best weekend trips from Dublin — close, cheap when you book early, and endlessly rewarding. Skip the tourist traps, grab a coffee at a local café, walk along the Seine at dusk and you'll understand why people keep coming back. The city rewards slow exploration more than ticking off monuments.
Must see
🗼
Eiffel Tower
Go at night — the light show every hour is free
🎨
Le Marais
Best neighbourhood for food, art & vibes
🛶
Seine at dusk
Walk from Notre-Dame to Pont Neuf
🥐
Montmartre
Sacré-Coeur + best croissants in the city
🏛️
Musée d'Orsay
Better than the Louvre for a weekend visit
🍷
Canal Saint-Martin
Hip area, great for evening drinks
Practical tips
✈️
Airports: Ryanair flies to Beauvais (1h from city), Aer Lingus to CDG (45min). CDG is worth the extra cost for a short trip.
🚇
Transport: Metro is cheap and covers everything. Buy a carnet of 10 tickets — much cheaper than single tickets.
🏨
Stay in: République, Oberkampf or Le Marais — central, vibrant, better value than Saint-Germain.
💰
Budget tip: Picnic by the Seine with bread, cheese and wine from a supermarché. €10 and one of the best Paris experiences.
📅
Best time: April–June and September–October. Avoid August — half of Paris is on holiday.
Cologne is one of the most underrated weekend trips from Dublin. Consistently cheap flights, great beer culture, a stunning cathedral, and a lively old town. It's the kind of city where you wander, eat well, and leave feeling like you've found a secret.
Must see
⛪
Cologne Cathedral
UNESCO site — climb the tower for epic views
🍺
Früh am Dom
Best Kölsch beer right next to the cathedral
🌉
Hohenzollern Bridge
Love locks bridge — great Rhine views
🏛️
Altstadt
Old town, perfect for an evening stroll
Practical tips
🍺
Kölsch rule: local beer served in small 200ml glasses — they keep bringing them until you put your coaster on top.
🏨
Stay near: the Altstadt or close to the cathedral — everything is walkable from there.
💡
Bonus: Düsseldorf is only 30min by train — easy day trip if you want variety.
Berlin is unlike any other European city. Raw, creative, relentless. The nightlife is legendary, the history is heavy, the food scene is world-class. A weekend here barely scratches the surface — but you'll be hooked immediately.
Must see
🧱
East Side Gallery
1.3km of Berlin Wall covered in murals
🏛️
Brandenburg Gate
Iconic — beautiful at night
🎶
Kreuzberg
Best neighbourhood for bars, food & nightlife
🌿
Tiergarten
Huge central park — perfect for a morning walk
Practical tips
🚇
Transport: U-Bahn and S-Bahn cover everything. Get a 48h travel card — much better value.
🌙
Nightlife: Berghain is the famous club but queues are brutal. Tresor or Watergate are easier to get into.
💰
Budget tip: Berlin is cheap for a capital city. Street food at Markthalle Neun, €5 currywurst, €3 beers.
Bratislava is one of Europe's best kept secrets. Tiny, charming, and incredibly cheap. The old town is walkable in an hour, the castle views are stunning, and Vienna is just 1 hour away by train — making it a perfect two-city weekend.
Must see
🏰
Bratislava Castle
Panoramic views over the Danube
🏘️
Old Town
Cobblestone streets, great cafés & bars
🚂
Vienna day trip
1h by train — two capitals for one flight!
🍺
Čerešňový sad
Best craft beer bar in the city
Practical tips
💰
Very cheap: meals for €8-12, beers for €2. Your money goes a long way here.
🚂
Vienna hack: take the train to Vienna on Saturday, back Sunday morning. Effectively two cities for one flight price.
🏨
Stay in: the Old Town — everything is within walking distance and hotels are great value.
Malaga is the best value sun destination from Dublin. Consistently affordable flights, beautiful beaches, incredible food, and a surprisingly vibrant cultural scene — it's much more than just a beach resort.
Must see
🏖️
La Malagueta
Main city beach — 5 min walk from centre
🏰
Alcazaba
Moorish fortress with stunning views
🎨
Picasso Museum
Birthplace of Picasso — unmissable
🍷

Local neighbourhood, best seafood restaurants
Practical tips
☀️
Best months: May–June and September–October. July–August is very hot and crowded.
🚌
Airport: Bus line A takes you to city centre in 20 min for €3 — skip the taxis.
🍽️
Food tip: espetos — fresh sardines grilled on the beach. Uniquely Malaga and unmissable.
Amsterdam is endlessly charming — canals, bikes, world-class museums, and a buzzing food scene. It rewards slow exploration: rent a bike, get lost in the Jordaan neighbourhood, and watch the city life unfold from a canal-side terrace.
Must see
🎨
Rijksmuseum
World-class art — book tickets in advance
🚲
Jordaan
Best neighbourhood — canals, boutiques, cafés
🌷
Keukenhof
Tulip gardens (Apr–May only) — stunning
🍺

Fun brewery tour in the heart of the city
Practical tips
🚲
Rent a bike: it's the only way to truly experience Amsterdam. €12-15/day and you'll cover everything.
🏨
Book early: Amsterdam hotels fill up fast and prices spike — book at least 3-4 weeks ahead.
🚇
Airport: Schiphol is 15 min by direct train to Centraal Station — fast and easy.
