The sunny Catalonian capital is perfect for a best friend getaway. There are tons of fun activities to do, especially when the weather is nice and hot. Play beach volleyball, take in a cooking class (make your own paella and tapas) and enjoy a tour at Camp Nou, the iconic home of Spanish champions FC Barcelona. Definitely make time for a day trip to Port Aventura too. Spain’s biggest and best theme park is located just south of Barcelona. City Highs: Six Of Barcelona’s Best Rooftop Bars
If you and your best friend are adventure seekers, then head straight to Bergamo. Based in Italy’s northern Lombardy region, the stunning Alps on the border of Switzerland surround the city of Bergamo. The perfect way to kick off any trip to Bergamo is by taking the funicular up to the Città Alta where you can enjoy the ancient architecture, pretty churches and cobblestoned pavements of the older district.
