Small budget, small window of time, big list of Must Dos? The European Encounter should do the trick. Make your way through 8 countries, catching some rays on the Italian Riviera, downing pizza in Rome & exploring castles in Prague. If you know a better way to spend just under two and a half weeks, we need to hear about it!
Great tour of Switzerland. I probably wouldn't recommend doing it in the summer though. It was super hot in July but the scenery was just so beautiful.
I especially loved the Swiss food and beer.
