Help with France-Germany Itinerary
 
My husband and I are flying into Paris on November 19 midday. We are taking Eurrail to Munich where we will stay there a few days and then head back to Paris where we will spend the remainder of our time there, leaving November 26. We were thinking staying someplace "in the middle" on the evening of Nov. 19. Here are the four potential spots we were thinking of:

Brussels (Belgium)
Cologne (Koln), Germany
Strasbourg, France
Luxembourg

Any recommendations? We won't stay too long... just the afternoon/evening of Nov. 19 and then we'll leave for Munich the next morning.

I'd go for Strasbourg or Brussels.

I'll second Strasbourg.

Stasbourg, yes
Brussels, no

Total agreement with all the above....Strasbourg is beautiful, especially the old section . Enjoy!

Hi daisy,

>..flying into Paris on November 19 midday. We are taking Eurrail to Munich where we will stay there a few days and then head back to Paris ...<

Are you doing this because you have to or because you want to?

I don't understand RT Paris if you are visiting Munich.

Why not fly into Munich and then either fly or train to Paris, and leave from there.

Also, don't by train tickets from EurRail. They are much cheaper through the national train lines:
