My husband and I are planning our first trip to Europe together this September. We have known that Paris is the top of our travel wish list, and as we have studied maps and spent countless hours on this site and forums, we have decided that we would like to include Switzerland in our itinerary. We have a 12 day trip planned (net 11 nights after travel time) and are considering flying into Zurich and out of Paris or vice versa. As of right now the only additional "musts" we have are the Glacier Express and the Champagne region of France. So our plan is Zurich-Champagne-Paris. Now - I have two questions. My husband is a Porsche enthusiast and has a desire to visit Stuttgart. Is it pushing it to add a day in Stuttgart to this itinerary?
Another question - a friend has asked us to meet them in Munich during our trip. I am concerned this might also be too much for the time we have allotted. What are your thoughts on that?
Thank you for your input! This forum has been an invaluable resource that has saved my sanity in planning this trip!
EDIT: Oh, and if this helps, we were thinking maybe 6 nights in Switzerland, 2 in Champagne, 3 in Paris.
