London’s rooftop scene is one of the best in the world.
The skyline delivers, and the bars know it.

Here’s where to drink above the city 🍸

🍸 Sky Pod Bar, Sky Garden
➡️ free to book, 35 floors up, stunning views of the Shard and Tower Bridge – one of London’s most democratic rooftop experiences and one of its best.

🌅 12th Knot, Sea Containers
➡️ a South Bank rooftop with wide Thames views, St Paul’s in the distance, live music midweek, and cocktails that actually justify the price.

🍹 Aviary, Finsbury Square
➡️ 10th-floor rooftop with a retractable glass roof – one of London’s most reliable year-round spots for drinks above the city.

🌆 Madison, One New Change
➡️ a rooftop bar and restaurant with perhaps the finest direct views of St Paul’s Cathedral in the whole city – come for the views, the cocktails make it easier to leave.

🍸 Frank’s Café, Peckham
➡️ the original cult rooftop – a car park, a bar, a legendary London summer institution, and a testament to the city’s ability to find beauty in unexpected places. Open in summer only.

🌿 Aqua Shard, The Shard
➡️ 31 floors of glass above London Bridge – you’ve seen the Shard from every angle. Drinking inside it is a different experience entirely.

✨ Roof East, Stratford
➡️ a rooftop with a bowling alley, a cinema, and a crazy golf course, because London’s rooftops don’t need to choose between fun and views.

London from above.
Always a different city up there 🍸

Copenhagen is one of the world’s great food cities.

And beyond the famous names,
there’s a whole layer of brilliant,
under-the-radar restaurants that the city’s own food lovers return to again and again.

Here’s where to eat 🍽️

🍽️ Goldfinch
➡️ down a dark alley off Nyhavn that most people walk straight past – a tiny New Asian Wave restaurant serving some of the finest Chinese-inspired cooking in the city. If you like Hong Kong-style bistro energy in a Northern European setting, this is it.

🌿 Udtryk
➡️ one of the most talked-about openings of recent years among Copenhagen food insiders – a neighbourhood restaurant in the true sense, with a focused, seasonal menu and a room that feels more like someone’s home than a restaurant.

🍽️ Bæst
➡️ Christian Puglisi’s neighbourhood pizza and charcuterie restaurant in Nørrebro – organic, wood-fired, and exceptional. Not exactly unknown, but consistently overlooked in favour of the fine dining giants. The burrata and the pizza are among the finest in Europe.

🌿 Marv & Ben
➡️ a low-key, high-quality Danish brasserie in the city centre – no ceremony, no Instagram lighting, just excellent seasonal Danish cooking and wine in a warm, honest room.

🍽️ Alouette
➡️ a neighbourhood restaurant that punches far above its size – imaginative, produce-led cooking in a relaxed setting, with a natural wine list that draws serious drinkers from across the city.

🌿 Manon les Suites restaurant
➡️ a beautiful garden restaurant hidden inside a boutique hotel – seasonal, Nordic-French, and completely off the radar of most visitors.

✨ Broens Gadekøkken
➡️ the harbour street kitchen under the old bridge in Christianshavn – not one restaurant but a cluster of chef-run stalls where Copenhagen’s serious cooks run their most casual and creative operations. Eat outside, eat a lot, eat happily.

Copenhagen food beyond the obvious.
This is where to look 🍽️

Everyone knows hygge as a winter thing.

Candles.
Wool blankets.
Something warm in a ceramic mug.

But the Danes
have always known that hygge is not a season.

It is a pace.
A quality of presence.
A decision to be fully where you are.

And in summer,
it becomes something completely different.

🌸 What summer hygge actually looks like

➡️ it looks like a long lunch on a terrace
that was only supposed to be coffee.
A picnic that stretches into evening
because no one wants to be the first to suggest leaving.
A swim, then lying on warm rocks in the sun, then doing it again.
It is the art of not rushing.

🚲 The bicycle ride to nowhere in particular

➡️ in Copenhagen,
summer hygge begins on a bike.
No destination, no plan,
just the canals, the breeze,
the bakery you stop at because the smell made the decision for you.
The Danes do not commute by bicycle.
They live by them.

🔥 The bonfire by the water

➡️ Midsummer across Scandinavia means fire by the shore
with bonfires on beaches,
on island rocks,
on the edges of fjords.
The gathering around a fire at midnight, with the sky still light above you, is hygge at its most elemental and its most honest.

🌿 The summer cottage (hytte, stuga, mökki)

➡️ every Norwegian has a hytte.
Every Swede has a stuga.
Every Finn has a mökki.
A cabin in the forest or by the water,
with no particular agenda and no apology for it.
The radical act of going somewhere slow on purpose.

☕️ Fika, but outside

➡️ Sweden’s fika…
the mandatory pause for coffee and something sweet
moves outdoors in summer.
A wooden table in a garden.
A bench beside a lake.
The cinnamon bun tastes different outside.
Everything does.

🌊 The outdoor sauna ritual

➡️ in Finland and increasingly across the whole Nordic region,
the summer sauna is the purest form of hygge available,
heat until you can’t,
jump into cold water,
sit outside in the evening air, repeat.
No phones. No agenda.
Just the body and the sky….

While you can still climb Hallgrímskirkja for the view,
walk the sculpture-lined old harbour,
or spend an afternoon along Laugavegur,
we recommend saving this for your trip to Reykjavik!

☕️ Linger over coffee at a neighbourhood café
➡️ Reykjavik’s coffee culture is quietly world-class.
Find the corner spots where locals actually sit,
not where the guidebooks send you.

🎨 Wander the creative quarters
➡️ street art, independent galleries,
and design studios tucked into side streets most visitors walk straight past.

🐟 Eat where Reykjavik eats
➡️ the finest tables are rarely on the main drag
harbour-fresh seafood, new Nordic tasting menus,
and kitchens run by people who genuinely care.

🌊 Walk the old harbour at golden hour
➡️ fishing boats, mountain views across the bay,
and that extraordinary summer light that refuses to fade.

🏘 Get lost in the old neighbourhoods
➡️ corrugated-iron houses in faded colours, quiet garden paths,
and a city that reveals itself slowly to those who look.

♨️ End the day like a local
➡️ a neighbourhood geothermal pool,
where Reykjavik genuinely unwinds..
unhurried, unpretentious,
and unlike anything else.

Reykjavik does not give everything away at once.

Our private local guides know exactly where to find all of it.

There is a moment
somewhere around 11pm on a clear July evening in the north
when you realise the sky has no intention of going dark.

The light is gold.
Then pink.
Then a deep, impossible amber.
And then, slowly, it turns gold again.

No sunset.
No darkness.
Just hours of the most extraordinary light you have ever seen,
moving quietly along the horizon while the rest of the world sleeps.

This is the midnight sun.
And nothing quite prepares you for it.

☀️ What it actually feels like

➡️ the first night you experience it,
you won’t sleep.
Not because it’s too bright (though it is)
but because something in you refuses to waste it.
You sit by an open window,
or walk to the water,
or find a hilltop,
and you just watch.
For hours.
And it feels like being given extra time on this planet.

🌊 Where to feel it most

➡️ Iceland is the most dramatic…
in summer the sun circles the horizon without ever fully setting,
and the landscape catches colours that have no names.
Reykjavík harbour at midnight is
one of the most extraordinary urban experiences on earth.

🇳🇴 Oslo and the fjords

➡️ the midnight sun over the Oslofjord
turns the water into something liquid and golden.
Watch it from Ekeberg hillside
or from the deck of an island ferry
and understand why Norwegians spend summer entirely outdoors.

🇸🇪 Stockholm’s white nights

➡️ Stockholm doesn’t get true midnight sun
but the sky never fully darkens in June.
The city glows in a soft, continuous twilight
and everyone stays out until 2am
because the evening simply never ends.

🇫🇮 Helsinki and the Finnish islands

➡️ the midnight sun from a Midsummer bonfire on a Finnish island,
with the sea reflecting the sky
and a sauna waiting nearby.
There is no more Finnish experience on earth,
and no more beautiful one.

Some things in travel have to be felt to be understood.
The midnight sun is one of them ☀️

Tallinn is small
but Estonia
and the neighbouring Baltic countries offer extraordinary day trip possibilities.

Here’s where to go 🚗

🌿 Lahemaa National Park

➡️ 70km east lies
a UNESCO coastal landscape of manor houses,
fishing villages,
bog trails,
and a rugged Baltic coastline.
The Viru Bog boardwalk
and Käsmu peninsula are the finest stops.
The most essential Estonian day trip.

🏖️ Pärnu

➡️ 130km south lies
Estonia’s summer capital,
with a beautiful Art Nouveau spa quarter,
wide beaches,
and the most relaxed atmosphere in the Baltic states.

🎓 Tartu

➡️ 185km south lies
Estonia’s university city
and cultural capital,
with the oldest university in the Baltic states,
a lively café culture,
and a young intellectual energy
completely different from Tallinn.

🏰 Haapsalu

➡️ 100km southwest lies
a spa town with a ruined bishop’s castle,
a promenade boardwalk,
and a genuine end-of-the-world quiet
that makes it one of Estonia’s most charming towns.

🏙️ Riga, Latvia

➡️ 310km south with
a 3-4 hour drive or bus,
lies a UNESCO Art Nouveau district larger than anywhere else in Europe
and one of the finest cities in the Baltics.

⛴️ Helsinki, Finland

➡️ two-hour ferry across the Gulf of Finland brings you to
a completely different country,
a Nordic capital,
and back in Tallinn the same evening.

Water on nearly every side,
history layered into fourteen islands.

Stockholm rewards travellers who go beyond the postcard view and our guests keep proving that's exactly what they came for.

Helsinki’s outdoor dining culture is built around the sea,
the islands,
and the extraordinary summer light.

Here’s where to eat outside 🍽️

🧖 Löyly terrace

➡️ the design sauna’s waterfront terrace facing the sea
sauna, cold dip,
then dinner on the deck as the sun moves westward.
The most complete outdoor experience in Helsinki.

🏊 Allas Sea Pool terrace

➡️ floating pools
and a restaurant terrace right in the harbour.
Eat breakfast watching the market square wake up,
or dinner as the evening light falls across the water.

🎶 Café Kappeli, Esplanadi

➡️ a beautifully ornate pavilion café in the middle of the park. t
The terrace fills immediately in summer
and stays full until late,
with free concerts on the bandstand
making it the most musical outdoor dining in Helsinki.

🌊 Ravintola Nokka waterfront

➡️ a respected Finnish restaurant
with a summer terrace
on the old waterfront east of the market.
All seasonal Finnish ingredients,
sea views,
and an evening pace
that summer in Helsinki does best.

🏰 Suomenlinna island restaurants

➡️ take the ferry to the UNESCO island fortress
and eat on outdoor terraces with open sea views.
Combine with a morning exploring the fortress
and stay for lunch.

🌿 Kaivopuisto park café terraces

➡️ on warm afternoons the park’s café terraces
fill with locals who have nowhere to be
and the whole afternoon ahead of them.
It’s the most relaxed outdoor dining atmosphere in the city.
