Two friends and I are planning our September trip to Europe. We have 12 days to visit Prague, Vienna, Salzburg, and Lucerne.
After that we have 4 days in Munich for a conference and will fly home from there. Is it possible to visit the four cities in 12 days time? We are planning to use trains to travel between cities unless there is a better option. We have not purchased our air fare from U.S. yet so are opened to any suggestions on where to begin our trip. Thanks!
I think you're going to have to delete at least Lucerne from your wish list. We just spent 7 nights in Prague, 6 in Vienna and 5 in Salzburg and it was barely enough. Lucerne is lovely but it's too far away from the other spots.
It is faster and more comfortable to take the DB bus between Prague and Munich, rather than the train.
Thanks for the advice!
