Whether you\u2019re chasing sunshine and vitamin sea, or prefer ancient city streets and mountaintops, here\u2019s our list of the best European places to visit.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Italy<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Why is Italy at the top of everyone\u2019s 2021 bucket list? Maybe it\u2019s the romance of Venice, the history or Rome, or the wines of Tuscany. Perhaps it\u2019s just the incredible gelato. After all, we just want a slice of \u201cla dolce vita\u201d. There are few things as dreamy as an Italian vacation filled with pizza, pasta and picturesque sights. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

There\u2019s a reason Portugal is on everyone\u2019s 2021 bucket list, and it\u2019s not just because of the pastel de nata custard tarts. From dramatic cliffs and unspoiled beaches, to hills peppered with grapevines, windmills and charming cities, Europe\u2019s wild west is waiting to be explored this year. And after one bite?
