Dates for the weekend
A free morning or afternoon leaves room for a plan with a little detour.
Make the most of it.
You don't have to fill the whole weekend. Choose one main activity and leave the rest open: a market, a route or making something together feels better when your schedule isn't packed.
- Set a start time before the weekend is already half over.
- Check crowds and reservation requirements for popular places.
- Deliberately leave some breathing room between travel, the activity and eating.
