Germany/Switzerland…Austria?
Our take
Cities:
Berlin 3 nights
Rothenburg ob der Tauber 1 night
Nuremberg 1 night
Munich 2 nights
Salzburg 1-2 nights
Fussen - Neuschwanstein Castle 1 night
Lucerne 3 nights
Interlaken 1 night
Should I skip Salzburg entirely?
Should I just do 3 nights in Lucerne and skip Interlaken?
I am definitely going to trim a few days/stops. This is the planning phase. Looking for advice. Non negotiables are Berlin(seeing friends), Munich, and Lucerne OR Interlaken. We’re a well traveled couple in our late 30s that have done 7-8 cities in this time frame without feeling rushed. We like to party but also like to enjoy hiking, architecture etc….We move fast but know how to slow down when needed.

- First time Europe trip Itinerary (early draft)Making my first trip overseas. I’m an experienced road tripper on the lower 48 but this will be a new experience. I have done some research but wanted the perspective of real people who have been there before Heading out in Early September. Fly into Milan. Planning on spending 3 days in Northern Italy. After that head up to the Jungfrau area of Switzerland to spend 3 days there. Then off to Germany for a couple days. Be visiting my Aunt and Uncle near Ansbach for a couple days. Thinking about stopping at the castle of Mad King Ludwig on the way up. After that head down to Austria to spend a day. Then it will be off to Slovenia to spend 4 full days. Then end the trip with a trip to Plitvance Lakes National Park before flying home out of Zagreb. Thoughts? I am having trouble narrowing down Italy. Sounds like the Dolomites will be difficult to fit in with going to Switzerland after. For my interests of Nature, history, and local culture Verona sounds like a must. Then either Lake Como or Venice. I have heard mixed reports on Venice. Some say it has one of the best preserved history you can find. Others says it’s overrated, overcrowded, and the canals stink. I’m also unsure what to do in Austria. Any suggestions to compliment the other stops? submitted by /u/80GradeScrewball [link] [comments]
- Eurowinter itinerary helpSo to preface, I'm very aware this is not the ideal time of year for a trip to many of these places but it's unfortunately the only time I have free to go... I'm still very much in the planning stage so would love to hear any of the unmissable things you would recommend in different places, restaurants, day trips, museums, activities, etc. I would also love to hear people's thoughts on the order of the trip (the Spain/Portugal part can't change but would there be any point ending in Switzerland and starting in Vienna in terms of Jan vs Feb weather or not really?). Also love to know any places people think need more/less time. I'll be leaving late December after Christmas and coming back mid February. I will also be travelling with a friend living in Madrid for the Portugal stint of the trip. Lisbon (4 nights) - Sintra day trip Porto (2 nights) Madrid (5 nights) - Segovia and Avila day trip - Toledo day trip Barcelona (3 nights) **Flight to Geneva Bern (1 night) Interlaken (4 nights) - Grindelwald and Lauterbrunnen day trip Lucerne (3 nights) Zurich (1 night) Innsbruck (2 nights) Munich (3 nights) Salzburg (3 nights) Graz (2 nights) Budapest (4 nights) Vienna (5 nights) - Bratislava day trip submitted by /u/Substantial_Can_6254 [link] [comments]

- Need help choosing nature spots in Central Europe!Hi all, I am currently planning a solo trip to Central Europe for May (I am located in the US). Earlier this week, I posted an itinerary that got some traction, and I made some revisions based on the feedback, shown below. Prague (3 nights) -> Munich (2 nights) -> ??? + Salzburg? (5 nights) -> Vienna/Bratislava day trip (4 nights) I am debating where to go for an alpine retreat/sightseeing for 5 nights in the middle of my trip, whether that is in southern Germany or in Tyrol. I am assuming I would need to spend at least a night in Salzburg to get to Vienna the next day. Based on some of the suggestions from the last post, I was thinking 2 nights in Berchtesgaden, 2 nights in Zell am See, and 1 night in Salzburg, but I am very open to any suggestions. Also, any info on where to eat, what to do, where to stay, or any other small tips for the other cities is greatly appreciated. I have traveled a bunch before with friends and family, but this is my first time alone. I have already booked all the hostels for the other cities. For my interests (if pertinent): I love trying new/unique food Not big on museums/art I like to hike/am faster paced at traveling in general Prefer to use public transportation rather than renting a car I don't drink at all Thanks! submitted by /u/TheCheesyTaco [link] [comments]
