  • Christmas tree on Dam Square in Amsterdam, Netherlands, illuminated with vibrant holiday lights

    Dam Square

    Dam Square is where Amsterdam began — literally. The 13th-century dam on the Amstel gave the city its name, and the square still anchors everything.

  • Rüdesheim am Rhein Aerial

    Rüdesheim Am Rhein

    Drosselgasse is touristy and worth it anyway — but the cable car over the Riesling terraces is what actually earns the detour.

  • Romantic Road

    Romantic Road

    The Romantic Road takes 3–5 days to drive properly. Rothenburg ob der Tauber gets the crowds; Dinkelsbühl, just 45km south, gives you the same medieval walls without them.

  • Tourist Taking a Selfie at Marienplatz in Munich, Germany

    Marienplatz

    The Glockenspiel performs at 11am and noon — skip the crowd, stay for the Mariensäule and the beer hall two blocks west.

  • Tourists and locals in front of Moulin Rouge in Amsterdam's Red Light District

    Moulin Rouge

    The can-can has been performed here since 1889. Dinner, champagne, sequins, feathers — the Moulin Rouge is unapologetically theatrical.

  • The Leaning Tower of the Oude Kerk in Delft

    Oude Kerk Delft

    Vermeer is buried here, under plain stone slabs. The leaning tower outside and the Baroque pulpit inside make this worth an hour of anyone’s time.

  • Sketch London gourmet dining experience with seafood entree and white wine in a chic Mayfair restaurant ambiance.

    Sketch

    The egg-shaped bathroom pods at Sketch are famous for a reason — but the Michelin-starred dining room is what actually earns the trip to Mayfair.
