Are you, a friend, or a member of your family hitting a big age milestone this year? Or maybe you are just a big birthday fanatic! Going on a holiday or a short mini-break to celebrate a birthday is such a great way to make it a memorable one and have the best time with friends or family. But where should you travel to? Check out our short guide.
Before Travelling
It is important to make sure that you are travelling as safely as you possibly can, especially in these uncertain times, with the Covid-19 pandemic affecting so many people and areas. Do your research prior to travelling to make sure that you are as up to date as you could possibly be about your chosen destination. It is absolutely vital to get travel insurance, that way you are better covered in case there are medical emergencies or accidents. You may not be charged extra when including Covid-19 cover in your insurance, so stay as safe as you can by making sure you are covered before you leave.
New York
New York is the ultimate birthday destination. The Big Apple offers shopping, restaurants, famous landmarks we will all recognise, and just a fabulous vibrant atmosphere. Imagine walking around Times Square at night, looking at the view on the top of the Empire State Building and taking a morning stroll in Central Park with a coffee and a breakfast bagel. It will definitely be a birthday to remember.
Berlin
Berlin is a city that combines old with new in such an interesting alternative way. It is famous for great nights out and its brilliant architecture. It also won’t break the bank, which is a big bonus. Explore the coffee shops, bars, art galleries and all the amazing street art the city has to offer.
Rome
What more could you ask for than beautiful architecture, amazing pizza and pasta, and gorgeous cobbled streets? The home of great Italian cuisine and fantastic sightseeing, Rome is the perfect celebratory spot for the perfect birthday weekend. Visit the Colosseum, the Pantheon and the Trevi Fountain. Legend has it that if you throw three coins into the Trevi Fountain, the first will bring you back to Rome, the second will bring romance to your life, and the third will guarantee you marriage.
Marrakech
This photogenic city is perfect for snapping memories with loved ones. It boasts brilliant galleries, excellent cooking classes to make incredible food, and wonder through the charming Medina (the old town). It is a unique trip for a birthday and will definitely be one to remember.
Dublin
The city of Dublin is an exciting vibrant place with so much to offer. Whether it’s visiting the Guinness Storehouse, partying in The Temple Bar, or going back in time by visiting the Dublin Castle, you will never be out of things to do. Dublin isn’t the cheapest of spots – you may have to break the bank slightly – but we think it is totally worth it to spend your birthday in such a magical vivacious place.
Las Vegas
The city that never sleeps! How could we not mention the bright, exuberant, energetic city of Las Vegas. The neon city brings gourmet dining, 24-hour casinos, dazzling shows and amazing deserts surrounding the city. Treat yourself or your friends for a big birthday bash in the most sensational setting.
It is important before travelling to check the most recent Covid-19 updates in any of the regions you choose to travel to. Double-check on the day of travel too. You and your friends or family will have the best break away to celebrate the joyous occasion that is a birthday!
