I needed some input on our itinerary

Its our first time to europe but we are going with a couple friends who have been there more than a few times..we are flying into London heathrow and staying in Bishop stortford which is not to far from cambridge..my brother in law is stationed at lakenheath airforce base so we are gonna spend a couple of days with him, we are flying in on June 28th and departing on july 4th to go to rome for two nights..we are leaving rome on july 6th and going to barcelona for three nights, departing barcelona on july 9th and going to paris for three nights, departing paris and going to london on july 12th staying the night in london and flying back home on the 13th of July..I was wondering if this sounds ok..we are taking ryan air and trying to book our last flight from paris to rome through edreams..I know with ryan air they dont fly directly to the cities and it seems pretty easy to get from the rome ciampino airport to rome city centre..but i am curious about getting from girona to barcelona and from beauvais to paris
Thank you for all your help

Not a reasonable itinerary.. too much time flying & too little time at destinations. Ryan Air doesn't show having flights available from Rome to Barcelona and Barcelona to Paris during that time. Cut Barcelona out to give you 4 nights in both Rome and Paris. In case you didn't know, Bishops Stortford is just a couple minutes from Stansted Airport and you can take a Nat'l Express bus from Heathrow to Stansted. Last flight from Paris....you mean to London? Take the train.

I second the advice to cut out Barcelona, even though it's my favorite city in the world. If Girona is where the flight really goes, I think you're looking at an hour or more to get to Barcelona. Add those days to the other cities, one each. You're also doing a lot of zigzagging. Why not do Bishop Stortford to Paris to Rome?

We were wanting to do paris last because our anniversary is on the 10th and we wanted to be there for our anniversary...I did look into ryan air and they are flying out of rome to girona and from girona to paris in july...I looked into transfers from each of the airports and I think from ciampino airport to rome is less than an hour and from girona to spain is an hour and 15 min and from beauvais to italy is a little over an hour..which to us isnt to bad..I looked at a map and i figured we could do a full circle and I know paris is close to england so I thought it would be easy to end there..thanks for the info on barcelona I will talk to my husband and see what he wants to do :)
