Default Hello, I'm Jayla

Hello,
I'm Jayla from Canada. I'm planning a trip for next spring (about four months) to Europe then Thailand then Kenya and it's going to be a party trip. I'm going with a friend and we want to hit all the party cities in western europe before going to Thailand then I'm going to meet up with family in Kenya. If anyone has any tips for where to go in Europe that would be fun to party in let me know. So far I have London, Barcelona, Ibiza, Rome, Naples, Capri, Nice, Paris, Athens, and Mykonos. I also want it to be as cheap as possible.

Thanks everyone. I don't know if Naples is a huge party city. I'm going because I love the old Sophia Loren movie It Happened in Naples and I want to see the gorgeous city with my own two eyes. I hope it's fun and beautiful though.

Hey Jayla, welcome to the boards. From my experience, Naples is not a good place to party. It can be a rough town at night...and during the day for that matter. It is a good launching spot for Capri and Pompeii though. Neither of which is much of a party spot but cool in its own right and worth a visit.

I can vouch for the Greek Islands, especially Ios. Get your fill there and party till dawn. Canadian Bacon will be along to back me on that.

How about Germany? Not the cheapest but worth a look. I throw Berlin and Munich into the ring.

Welcome! If its a party you want you have totally picked some A1 cities to go to. I would also like to reccomend Berlin as that place has a vibrent night scene but cheaper especially in the east. Ask anyone working at your hostel and I am sure they can point you in the right direction.

Welcome, Jayla! I think Sorrento is a nice town to stay in, near Naples. And then you can dash in and get your fill of Sophia Loren movie stops whenever you want. Seriously, I've heard it's a rough town, too. However, the area is drop dead gorgeous. Definitely see the Amalfi Coast, Pompeii, Herculanaem -- lots to see and do in the area.

Hey and welcome to the boards. I agree about Napoli. Can be a bit rough, just keep your senses. I personally love the crazy hussle bussle going on there. I have a lot of info on that part of Italy if ya need some. Also the greek isles (and I've been to Ios too) If you want to party stay at the Far Out Beach Club. It will be the best party of your trip!!!!!!
