The little villages and towns of the picturesque W

The little villages and towns of the picturesque Wachau Valley in Austria.

Flanking the River Danube, the Valley is covered in terraced vineyards, abbeys sitting on hilltops and historic towns and villages.

We loved the region and are excited to be returning to see more of the Wachau Valley at a more leisurely pace in a few months time.

Follow us here to join us as we explore more of the Wachau and Austria.

Morning mist accompanied us into the mountains to the Montserrat Monastery outside of Barcelona.

The 11th century Benedictine Abbey is perched high in the mountains surrounded by a National Park The Abbey is famous for its Black Madonna statue.

It's known to get busy with daytrippers and bus tours from mid-morning onwards so we made a point of arriving early in the morning to enjoy a visit inside the Abbey, around its beautiful grounds and walk a trail in the path.

We enjoyed the serenity and peacefulness away from bustling Barcelona for a few hours.

The brilliant tiled roof of St Mark's Church in Za

The brilliant tiled roof of St Mark's Church in Zagreb, Croatia.

The surrounding streets were busy so we were surprised to find that we had St Mark Square almost to ourselves when we arrived.

Built in the 13th century, the church boasts the medieval coat of arms of Croatia, Dalmatia and Slavonia on one side and Zagreb's emblen on the other. It's one Zagreb's iconic landmarks.

Split between the Upper and Lower towns, we found plenty of things to see and do in Zagreb. Take a look at our blog for our recommendations and include a stay on your Croatian itinerary. You'll find the link in the comments section below.

Those of you who have visited Cesky Krumlov will agree that it's the quintessential fairytale town.

We saw the castle and its tower from the garden viewpoint in the town centre and made our way to the top of the tower later in the day for the panoramic views across the town.

We think it's worthy of more than just a quick visit on a tour. We staye in the old town centre for a couple of nights and found it even more fairytale-like after the daytrippers had left.

A wonderful experience that we highly recommend if you're planning a trip to the Czech Republic.

Basel Town Hall in the centre of the city's historic old town.

Scroll through to see some of what you'll find inside. It's even more spectacular in reality.

Take a look at our blog post for more things to see and do in one of Switzerland's underrated city's. The link is in the comments section below.

Maratea's seafront village.

Maratea is the perfect combination of a town which spans between a hilltop and the sea on Italy's coastline.

We stayed a beautiful accommodation overlooking the sea halfway between both the old town and seafront.

The area was recently affected by destructive storms and we hear they are now busy returning it to its pristine condition. If you're wanting a holiday in a less crowded part of Italy, Calabria is a wonderful destination and they would dearly love the support.

A flashback to visiting the pretty French hilltop

A flashback to visiting the pretty French hilltop village of Vezelay.

The UNESCO World Heritage listed village is popular Christian pilgrims and not overrun by tourists.

The village's main attraction is the Basilica which sits at the top of the main road. We were fortunate to visit inside while a service was in progress.

A reminder that it's okay to take yourself away from the major tourist magnets. You'll find more amazing spots like Vezelay wherever travel!

The evening view from the patio of our cottage in

The evening view from the patio of our cottage in Ramberg on the Lofoten Islands was absolutely magic.

The clouds were drifting low across the water and it looked like a miserable afternoon.

However, we arrive by the time we returned from across the island after hiking to the top of Reinebringen the clouds had disappeared revealing this beautiful scenery.

The Capella della Maddalena di Vitaleta in the hil

The Capella della Maddalena di Vitaleta in the hills of Tuscany's Val d'Orcia.

We took a day trip from our base of Pienza stopping in small towns and villages along with this little chapel tucked away off the main country road.

A walk of about 500 metres from the parking area to the chapel takes you along a path with vuews over the surrounding countryside before you reach the church.

We arrived just before a group of Italian tourists who were enjoying a look around the Val d'Orcia on their colourful Vespas.

The water clock in Rome's Borghese Gardens.

We try to visit the Gardens whenever we're in Rome. The leafy paths of the Gardens, just minutes from the Spanish Steps are a sanctuary in the heart of the city.

It's easy to spend hours wandering through the Gardens seeking out the monuments scattered around and visiting inside the Villa Borghese Gallery.

If you're intending to visit inside the Gallery (we highly recommend it) then book your visit time prior. To give visitors a premium experience, the number of visitors at any one time are limited.

The colourful buildings and waterways of Norrkopin

The colourful buildings and waterways of Norrkoping in Sweden.

With tourists seeking out Stockholm as their "go to" destination when planning a trip to Sweden, cities like Norrkoping get overlooked.

Just 160km south of Stockholm, we spent a delightful few hours wandering through the old textile capital of Sweden.

The historic and architectural gems of old industrial buildings have been preserved and some turned into museums related to their past. The whole precinct is worth meandering around.

Morning glory!

Watching the buildings glow at sun rise in and around Dresden's Neumarkt Square.

Just another reason why we love being up and out early on our travels.
