TOULOUSE, AMSTERDAM, VENICE … FIRST DATE DREAMS OR VALENTINE'S DAY REALITY?

Skyscanner uncovers great European destinations you can visit in a day

Valentine's Day is around the corner and love is in the air … well for some lucky people. However, for those that are still trying to find their perfect match and are looking for ways to 'woo' that someone special on their first date, Skyscanner.net has trawled their site to find the ideal European destinations you can visit in a day to create the best first date ever.

Hayley Shearer, growth manager from Skyscanner comments “Whether you're looking for that ideal first date, or somewhere special to 'pop the question' there are a number of routes to European destinations that you can visit in a day. The key to making sure you get the most out of the trip is to plan ahead. Do your research, find out your most preferred method of transport from the airport to the city centre, decide on the key attractions or exhibits you wish to see, book tickets if necessary. If you can't find a destination to visit in a day from your nearest airport, try selecting the nearby airport tool, you might even find you can save money.”
