The 6 best places for an offshore vacation with friends

Book flights to Malta, a small island state in the heart of the Mediterranean. It will be an ideal vacation destination for people who appreciate sunshine, ancient monuments, and active recreation. If you want to combine relaxation on the beach with sightseeing, Malta is a great idea.

Start your vacation together in Malta's capital, Valletta, a UNESCO-listed city with majestic cathedrals and fortifications. If you're thinking of having fun together on the beach, head to the islands of Gozo and Comino, famous for their Blue Lagoon with turquoise water.

The fortified settlement of Mdina, known as the “Silent City,” and the underground temples of the Hypogeum Ħal Saflieni are also interesting places in Malta. Planning to spend some time actively? Head to the sea caves and the cliffs of Dingli and try pastizzi—salty pastries with ricotta—as part of your recreation. After all, eating together is just as important as sightseeing!

Book flights to Los Angeles full of sunshine, a laid-back atmosphere, and endless opportunities. It's a great idea for a successful vacation for a group of friends looking for dynamism, American exuberance, and immersion in pop culture. If you like celebrities, beautiful beaches, and loud metropolises, Los Angeles is the perfect place for you.

Where should you spend your time in Los Angeles? A great idea would be to visit the Santa Monica Pier with the Santa Monica Pier funfair, where you will feel the carefree California laid-backness. Then move to the world of cinema on the Hollywood Walk of Fame, visit Grauman's Chinese Theater, and visit the Universal Studios Hollywood theme park. Griffith Observatory, with the best view of the Hollywood sign, will also be an interesting place to visit.

When planning a vacation in Los Angeles, also think about renting a car and embarking on a road trip along the legendary Pacific Coast Highway (State Route 1) along the coast, and try surfing lessons at one of California's beaches. For evening activities together, we suggest going out to clubs on the Sunset Strip or bars in West Hollywood; if you like sports, watch an exciting NBA or MLB game.

Book flights to Nice; it is synonymous with elegance and exquisite cuisine, so it will be an interesting destination for a group, appreciating luxury or relaxation in stylish surroundings. If you dream of a vacation together full of sun, food, and artistic atmosphere, Nice will delight you.

Where should you spend your time in Nice? Start your shared activities with a stroll along the Promenade des Anglais, stretching along the coast. Then take a look at the Old Town (Vieux Nice) and enjoy the atmosphere of Provence, to later ascend the Castle Hill (Colline du Château), which offers a view of the city and the Bay of Angels.

Are there any art lovers among you? When planning together, include a visit to the Matisse Museum or the Marc Chagall Museum. And if day trips out of the city are the key to a successful vacation, visit Cannes, Monaco, or Saint-Tropez in the Nice area!

Book flights to Rome, which needs no advertising. It's a real open-air museum and the perfect place for a shared vacation with friends who appreciate art, good food, and cheerfulness. If you dream of a successful vacation, Italy is synonymous with it.

Heading to Rome with a larger group of friends? Visit the Colosseum, the Roman Forum, and toss a coin into the Trevi Fountain to ensure a return to the Eternal City and create memories together anew. When planning your vacation, also include a visit to the Pantheon, the Spanish Steps, and the Vatican.

For shared activities, choose lessons in making Italian pizza or pasta, or organize a trip together to Florence, where you can easily get there by train. During the vacations, in the evenings, Piazza Navona and Campo de' Fiori look the most beautiful and taste creamy carbonara. Yum!

Book flights to Tokyo; futuristic skyscrapers, glittering neon lights, and traditional temples create a remarkable mosaic here. A joint vacation to Japan is a good idea for friends open to new places and looking for an intense cultural experience.

What ideas do we have for spending time together in Tokyo? Feel the energy of Shibuya Intersection, go to Tokyo Tower or Tokyo Skytree (especially at dusk), and if you like shopping, visit the Ginza district. Spend your vacation relaxing in Ueno Park, develop spiritually at the oldest Sensō-ji temple in Asakusa, and in the evening, sink into Japanese pop culture in the Harajuku district.

For shared activities in Tokyo, we recommend a crazy karaoke session or a course in sushi or sake making. Evening strolls through the neon-lit Shinjuku or Shibuya districts and sampling delicacies from Japanese cuisine will also be a good idea. After all, you know, dining together is an important thing, and there are many interesting places in Tokyo for every budget.
