I am planning a trip in October to see Paris, Nice, Switzerland and Milan, and would appreciate advise:

1. First, a few perimeters: arrive in Paris sometime in Oct. (exact date open) and leaving Milan around Nov. 1 for transportation convenience, so that is my tentative arrival and departure cities;

2. How many days minimum in Paris? I am thinking 5 full days in Paris. What are the "must see"?

3. Is it better if I go to Nice or Switzerland first? I am flexible.

4. How many days in Nice? What are day trips from Nice?

5. How many days in Switzerland? Specific advise would be much appreciated.

6. How many days in Milan? What are the day trips we should consider? We have been to Venice and Rome before.

Many thanks for your time and insights. Cheers.

Nice place for tour in Paris. Paris is a beautiful city, known as 'City of Lights' and of course, city of romance.

I've always dreamed of going to Paris. I just don't know when and insufficient funds for a vacation is holding me back.
