A tease from ITV reads: "A new trend has emerged: the extreme day trip. By taking advantage of shorter flights and off-peak deals, holidaymakers are flying to European cities for breakfast, lunch and dinner before being back in their own beds in the early hours for the same cost as a daytrip in the UK. 

These international day trips are packed with activities and come at a surprisingly affordable price. The trend has skyrocketed in popularity, with over a third of Brits heading abroad for a budget-friendly day out.

With a focus on aspirational yet affordable options, Extreme Daytrippers will resonate with an ITV audience looking to explore on a budget, packed with practical money-saving tips and showcasing destinations that offer incredible experiences without breaking the bank."

More details will be announced in due course.
