The publication highlights the most compelling destinations on the continent for this summer, from oh-so-cool cities to ravishing beaches and places tailor-made for family fun as selected by Lonely Planet’s team of European experts.

For the last 40 years, travel experts at Lonely Planet have trodden every cobbled street and admired every view on the continent. They have compared bucket lists to bring you their insider tips on the must-see places for this summer.

Lonely Planet Editorial Director, Tom Hall, said: “The destinations have been chosen by our team of European experts. Some may be surprising, some are definitely under the radar, but all of them are great places to visit right now. Whatever the travel experience you are looking for this summer, Lonely Planet’s Best in Europe will have something for you.”

To help travellers experience the very best of these destinations, Lonely Planet is giving away a free PDF chapter for the top place in each category. Each chapter is packed full of tips on where to eat, drink, sleep and explore. They are available at www.lonelyplanet.com/best-in-europe

Sandwood Bay was placed seventh in the Top Ten beaches with first place going to Jaz Beach, Montenegro, in the other categories, Akureyri, Iceland, was voted top of the “Best Places”, while, perhaps surprisingly, Kent was number one in the ten “Best Places for Family Holidays”.
