Airport transfer website Hoppa recently released its annual report ranking the price of a holiday in 84 destinations around the world, revealing the most expensive spots in Europe for a vacation.

Hoppa analysed the average cost of a one night stay per person to produce the ranking. The total per person includes the price of a hotel room, a meal for two with a shared bottle of wine, a shared 3-kilometre taxi journey, as well as a coffee, a cocktail, and a beer each.

Hoppa's report also looked at other features like the cost of a sightseeing bus and key attractions, although they are not included in this ranking.

From buzzing Dublin to Venetian canals, here are the 12 most expensive holiday destinations in Europe in 2017. They are ranked by the average all-in price per person per night, alongside a breakdown of how you'll spend your money in each place.
