The Best European Cities to Visit in August
A summertime Euro jaunt is sure to be sun-drenched and full of cultural discovery. Join one of these adventurous trips to tick off your European hit list in style.
Europe in August is glorious when the sun is shining: the days are long and the wine is flowing. The question is, which city should you visit as the summer season reaches its peak? The colourful chaos of Istanbul, the art-filled streets of Berlin, or the stone-walled hubs of Dubrovnik and Split? To inspire your summer getaway, here’s our roundup of the best European cities to visit in August, all bookable on a carefully curated adventure with Culture Trip.
Split and Dubrovnik, with pristine islands in between
August is one of the best times of the year to visit Croatia’s coastal cities, where you can cool off with a swim in the Adriatic Sea and dine al fresco late into the evenings. Join this eight-day tour and you’ll not only get to visit Split and Dubrovnik, but you’ll stop at the best spots along the Dalmatian Coast on the way. Explore the Roman ruins of Split before experiencing the vibrant nightlife on Hvar, then visit the islands of Vis and Korčula. Finish off the trip in Dubrovnik’s beautiful and ancient old town.
