It is a great itinerary. A lot is packed into 6 days but the things we saw were wonderful!
I would recommend adding an extra day and stopping somewhere between Lucerne and Paris. That was way too long a day of bus riding.

This was a great 'taster' tour - our first. We enjoyed it all and realised how much time we waste working things out ourselves. So we now want to experience some of Trafalgar's regional tours and have every confidence the tour directors will have taken care of all the details. This includes my gf meals! Never thought I would say this but a little longer free time will be nice, on a less compact tour, to visit some places that have been recommended by friends.
