The 15 Best Places to Visit In Europe - Where To Go - Santorini Dave
Paris has it all, which is why it's as close to a must-see as there is in Europe. Food, history, art, culture, and beauty around every corner.
Grand Hotel Karel V
Amsterdam to Utrecht – This ride is a bit longer (about 2.5 to 3 hours, one way). If you put Amsterdam to Utrecht into Google Maps you’ll get two different bike routes (mostly on opposite sides of the canal but departing a bit more close to Amsterdam), take one route to Utrecht and the opposite route back as they feel very different (but both wonderful rides). Utrecht is a medium-sized college town with nightlife, local attractions, and lots of restaurants along the main canal. Stay at the <anchor>Grand Hotel Karel V</anchor> (center of town, plenty of bike parking) which is fabulous.
