I’m contemplating making my very first trip to Europe or the Mediterranean area in February, March or early April and I’m looking for suggestions. I’m aware that replies could be quite varied, but to perhaps narrow it down a bit, here are some of my “ideal” criteria. . .
Warm(er), mild weather (60’s or higher) – I’ll be escaping the drab of a northeast Ohio winter.
Enough to see/do in a week around the resort area and within a 1-2 hour drive radius (or available day tours to places worth visiting that might be a little further away). Looking for somewhere to “get the most bang for my buck” in terms of time and since the timeshare resort would be my only base to venture from.
Although I love beautiful beaches for short visits, I’m not one to lay around on a beach all day or go to night clubs in the evening. I’m more adventurous and like to explore places I’ve never been to – I’m very interested in historical, cultural and scenic diversity. Someplace where English is widely spoken (or at least understood) is a big plus!
The island of Malta has me intrigued and is under consideration, but I’m open to other suggestions for locations in mainland Europe or the Mediterranean area where it’s on the warmer side that time of year.
Thanks in advance for any tips and suggestions. I'm also considering a South America destination so will start a similar thread in the International forum section.
