Utah, France and spain
 
Am from Egypt and am looking to travel on July for 6 to 9 days and am looking to visit Italy, France and Spain like a day dream to me. People told me not to use a travel agency cause it will be expensive. To travel with my own is the best but actually I dnt know from where to start and how to plan for it. This is my first trip out of the Arabian countries so I want to plan for everything. And am still 22 yrs old so I want to travel with good prices affordable:) if anyone can help that will be great.

I am still trying to figure out what word you meant instead of Utah.

Oh, I just realized that Utah = Italy.

Nine days isn't much time to see three countries. You'd better choose one city in each country. Maybe Barcelona, Paris, and Rome. You'd have to fly between them to save time. Maybe arrive in Paris, spend three nights, fly to Barcelona, spend two nights, and then fly to Rome and spend three nights. Fly home from Rome. This would be a very tiny glimpse of the three countries, but you're young, and you'll probably have other opportunities.

You could substitute different cities for the three I've mentioned. Maybe Madrid, Paris, and Venice. They would have to be cities that are large enough to have an international airport, otherwise you'd spend a lot of extra time on internal travel.

It would be impossible to visit these countries in six days.

Here is a good site for low-cost airlines:

You can specify just the country, rather than a city, so maybe you'll see other city combinations that would appeal to you.

It would help if you gave us a specific per night budget for places to stay. For a start I would look at hostels - try the the Let's Go sStudent guides and the Thorn Tree section of the Lonely Planet website for super budget travel info.

With the time you have available pick 2 countries maximum. It can eat up a whole day every time you move between cities and hotels.
