My husband and I (late 20s) are excited to be planning our first trip to Europe together in Sept. 2010 - Any opinions or advice on this itinerary?
Day 1-2 Paris, Night train to Florence, Day 4-6 Florence, Day 7 Day trip to Siena?, AM Train to CT - Day 8-9 CT,AM Train to Rome, Day 10-12. Any suggestions would be welcome!!!
I strongly recommend more time in Paris for two reasons: 1. Much of day #1 will be spent getting from the airport to the city, checking into your hotel, getting acclimated, and dealing with jet lag. 2. Paris is wonderful and deserves as much time as you can give it.
If you cannot add more days to your total time in Europe, cut one day in Florence so you can add one day in Paris.
Happy planning!
I should of added that it is a 14 day trip - I've subtracted two days for airtravel - so we'll be in Paris for aprox. 2 1/2 days.
