Who it's for

Fans of optimization puzzles and armchair travel planning who enjoy quietly building the best possible itinerary turn by turn.

Not for you if…

If you want direct player interaction or conflict rather than a mostly parallel, planner-style puzzle, this stays too polite and solitaire-feeling for your taste.

🦊

Vibe's take

Calm and puzzly β€” there's satisfaction in watching a messy week of tiles snap into a tidy, high-scoring itinerary, with just enough competition over popular city tiles to keep you paying attention to the table.

About this game

Happy Holiday hands you a blank three-week calendar and seven of Europe's best-loved cities to fill it with. You draft tiles covering sights, shopping, culture, and local food, then slot them into your weekly planner to decide exactly when and how long you'll stay in each destination. Longer stays score more, but only if you've lined up the transportation to actually get there smoothly β€” the tightest itinerary wins.
