You are absolutely right (we also went to Tenerife). But my thinking is, won't last minute deals be the most popular destinations ie mass market?

I don't have an objection to those places I just don't want to stay at one for a quiet relaxing holiday

With real last minute holidays, is there much variety?

Of course, holidays don't have to come from the pages of package holiday brochures.

Use the "Anywhere" tool on Skyscanner and you will find flights in the next few days all across Europe for under £30 return:

How much variety do you want?

We'd like to be able to drink. But I can't remember being anywhere with a drunken rowdy crowd who weren't English.

My point anyway was that the sort of package holiday deals available in England are going to mean you'd end up in English favoured destinations, and a lot of those are geared around drinking and partying which is not our scene regardless of nationality.

You have never been to Arenal/Playa de Palma in Majorca then:rotfl:
Germany,s equivalent of Magaluf but with bells on:eek:

At least the German bars tend to have better beer than the British ones. I was in Gran Canaria last year and ended up drinking in the German bars for that reason.

We stayed in CaSavio on the Venetian Coast. Was surrounded by drunk Dutch and Danish behaving badly.
