Hey everyone! I just have some questions this is my first time in europe...and was wondering if some of you can give me some pointers/opinions about my tentative schedule for the end of July 16 through the first week of august 6 2007.

I have been invited to a wedding in Finland, so the first half of the trip is between that and sweden...

3 days in Stockholm, Sweden
3 days in Helsinki, Finland
3 days in Berlin, Germany
2 days in Prague, Czech Republic
4 days in Rome, Italy
5 days in Barcelona, Spain
a total of 20 days...not counting two additional days for traveling to and from the US.

I am most concerned about the hotels in Rome and Barcelona...

any suggestions?? thanks.Grazie!! Gracias!!

Hi J,

After you undertake this expedition, where will you go to rest?

How are you traveling between cities?

As Ira suggests, your itinerary sounds strenuous and overly ambitious. The time and stress of travelling between those cities might cut down on your enjoyment of the trip.
But I will top for suggestions on hotels.

With present day air travel regulations you will loose 5-6 days to sitting at airports. Drop two cities out.

thanks everyone...I will take all that into consideration....I was thinking about the "resting" part of vacation also...

any good suggestions on a hotel in rome or barcelona???

Hi, post again with suggestions as to what you hope to pay. Also if there are particular amenities you need.

Also the search engine can be very helpful. Enter "Rome Hotels" and many articles will come up to view.

By the way you are right on time in making these reservations. Perhaps some hotels you'll have to wait to book until after the first of the year.
