This is part of our global guide to the best places to go in 2024. Check out more travel inspiration here.
As we consider the best places to go in Europe in 2024, we ask our expert contributors whether it’s a flurry of hotel openings, perhaps the whispers of a Michelin arrival, a shiny new museum, or perhaps a collaborative one. We asked you to nominate destinations that are on the rise for a reason. Conservation activities are taking root. Across the continent, news has arrived that for the first time a sporting event will be held in Italy. Amazing Scandinavian nature and new glamping sites. And France’s unexpected surf scene is becoming a hot topic. There’s also a classic Greek escape that’s more easily accessible than ever, and a Hungarian city that evolves significantly to coincide with major anniversaries.
Below is a compilation of countries, regions, cities and neighborhoods in Europe that are worth your time and attention in 2024. All of these have been carefully selected by Condé Nast Traveler UK and Spain editors. This is just a small taste of what Europe can achieve in the year ahead, but we feel it’s a great starting point. A happy journey.
