How to prioritize your next European city break

I visited 36 European capital cities. Here’s my ranking (and recommendation on where to go). · 25:26 · Video: Natasha Bergen · Watch at the source

In short: After visiting 36 European capital cities, Natasha Bergen shares a curated ranking to help travelers decide where their time is best spent. This guide moves beyond generic tourism to help you find destinations that truly resonate with your specific travel style.

The ranking is designed for travelers with limited time, such as a single weekend or a fixed vacation window. It aims to identify cities that offer a meaningful experience rather than just a checklist of sights. While the list covers 36 capitals, the author notes that some, like Vaduz, Liechtenstein, were less memorable during the filming process.

The evaluation focuses on what makes a 'good' city trip, prioritizing personal resonance. The list includes diverse locations such as Vilnius, Lithuania, which received a 'B' ranking, providing a framework for comparing different European hubs based on their unique atmospheres and offerings.
