Hi, I am looking for some input, if anyone has any. I am looking to take my 15 year old brother on vacation for a week over his spring break while my parents go on a cruise. I have found decently priced airfare from Florida to both London and Dublin w/ direct flights- $720 and $640 round trip per person.
He likes history, will go to museums and cathedrals, etc. We would be going for 6 nights. Do you think one destination would be better over the other?
Also, what about cost once there- is one more reasonable than the other, as far as food, attractions, etc.? I will be supplementing the airfare cost of what my parents are willing to pay ($500) and paying for the hotel in full for both of us, sharing a room. I probably will have to pay for all of his food too.
I thought about staying in the US and taking him to DC b/c of the history and museums, but the hotel costs outweigh any savings we'd have w/ international travel. Hotel and flight packages were coming up starting at $900 a person for DC!
Thanks!
