advise on a trip to Europe as a treat for hid

Thirded ,

Madrid is my favourite city I've ever visited. Been there countless times and love it. Go to Mercado San Miguel for the best food experience on the planet

Seville is also gorgeous, we went at Easter and the nightly parades by hooded figures in their thousands is a sight to behold.

Seville's on my to do list, looking forward to it.

Go to Madrid regularly with work so I'm fortunate to enjoy it!

Go at Easter, whether religious or not - you'll love it.

I have 3 suggestions... Seville, Rome or Krakow.... Krakow is the wild card, but I took hid and she loved it!

Rome would get my vote - went for my honeymoon and it's a great place. Loads to see and do, iconic buildings round every corner and amazing food. Also, from what I remember, it's not as expensive for food and drink as a lot of European cities I've been to.

Krakow is a good shout as a wildcard though. Lovely place and dirt cheap when you're there. I went on a stag do but remember thinking it would be nice to go back with the missus.

Rome or Madrid would be my shout. The hop on hop off tour buses are a great way to get the overall picture of the city and then choose where you want to go back to for a second look.

Fly to Marseille and get the train or drive to Avignon

It was the first time that we met, how can I forget, the moment that you stepped into the room you took my breath away

I was a bit like that the first time I met JustOne

Bit like Liverpool then?

Nice is nice.

Bruges is probably the nicest city I've been in. I thought it was a great place.

Geneva is also nice with fantastic transport links.

After my visit last year I would plum for Florence or Seina.

Stunning and most interesting and food to die for.

I don't often agree with Dodger, but he's not wrong about either of these places.

Siena is a bit quieter, so if you want nightlife, head for Florence - Amazing City. Or Rome - the Roman history is awesome and there's plenty to do.

Brugges is the nicest "quiet" city I've ever been to and if you both like beer, it's a no brainer.

Take her to Monaco and Nice she will love it lots.
