Europe – in brief
Europe offers the widest range of options for short trips: city breaks, mountains, coasts, islands, touring routes and long weekends. The key thing is matching the destination to the number of days, the season and the logistics, not just to how popular a place is.

Europe on OndaTravel.pl — where to start?
Poland and Switzerland
This section brings together places that work well as a clear trip goal: an alpine lake, Polish attractions and less obvious routes for a short walk or a weekend.
Southern Europe and warmer destinations
If you travel for light, the sea, food and a longer season, start with Cyprus, Greece, Spain, Croatia, Italy and Sicily.
European cities for a weekend
Below you will find selected cities that work best for a short 2–3 day trip. The full list of destinations is available in the City Break from Gdańsk section.
Northern Europe
Northern Europe remains a strong separate section, but it should be easy to reach from the Europe hub. It is a direction for travellers looking for fjords, waterfalls, cooler routes, the Northern Lights and dramatic landscapes.
How to use this page?
If you are looking for a short trip, start with city breaks. If you are planning nature, mountains or a road trip, go to Switzerland, Iceland, Norway or Poland. If sunshine matters most, check Cyprus and warmer destinations.
This page will grow with more guides to Europe, so it is best treated as a map leading to the most important sections and ready-made routes on OndaTravel.pl.
Hi, I’m Krystian “dziadzia przewodnik” from OndaTravel.pl!
The North is my greatest passion, but the world is far too beautiful to stay in just one climate. On my blog, I combine the raw landscapes of Iceland and Norway with the exotic energy of Thailand or Vietnam, showing you how to travel authentically — with passion and a camera in hand.
What will you find on OndaTravel.pl?
Visual storytelling: As a photographer and filmmaker, I don’t just describe places — I take you there with professional photos and video.
North expert: Ready-to-use road trip plans for Iceland and Norway, smart tips for budget travel, and my original Northern Lights Radar (locations and forecast).
Travel through the lens of cinema: I track down filming locations — from icy scenes in Interstellar to tropical frames from world cinema.
New direction: Exotic destinations: I love contrast, so the blog is featuring more and more practical knowledge about Vietnam and Thailand. I’ll show you how to find your way around Southeast Asia and come back with your best memories.
