Paris, Barcelona and Marrakech in January

Any negatives about traveling for 10 days to Barcelona, Marrakech and Paris in the beginning of Jan?

In principle, no - they're all excellent places to visit - but with only 10 days you'll be flying through each of them, and each deserves a lot more time.

Barcelona and Paris will be very COLD. Marrakech will be delightfully warm. Myself, I'd head south.

With 10 days I would pick 2 places and buoy them.

Short days (will be dark by 4 pm), cold and possibly snow/sleet/ice.

Definitely too many places in too little time - unless you have been to these places before and seen the major sights.

(I would think 2 days in Paris for a first trip is a waste of time.)

I agree - 10 days is barely enough for just 2 of these locations and it will be a blur to try to do all 3.

I would devide my time between Paris and Barcelona or Barcelona and Marrakeck, but not all three. Three destinations in only ten days would be all negatives!
