Cordoba and all of southern Spain. There is a lot of gorgeous architecture there from when the Muslims had occupied Spain. Visit al-hambra (sp?) palace.
thankyou honey..but I also wanted the name of a travel agency or something
i wanna travel to europe too in the 3rd week of june i think..i wanna arrive in london...take the train to paris..and hopefully take another train to switzerland...these r the 3 places i really wanna see for now..i wanna travel by train and i dont really know how much its going to cost
Sheraz, travelling by train is the best option in Europe. Google on Eurorail pass. Also, make sure to travel a lot on train within Switzerland. Some of the views are better than what they show you in movies. Breathtaking.
^ thats what i wanted to find out about..
How long does that take and how much does it cost.
is it a good idea to book the hotels in london from here .. or wait til you get there.
Muniya, I am not sure how many days / weeks do you have?. Lemme know the length of vacation and money you are willing to dole out. And if I were you I wouldn't do London and the rest of the Europe in one shot.
Well I was thinking of going for 7 days.
As for money.. not really on a tight budget but dont wanna spend $10000.00 either..
So you think London One shot and then the rest of Europe?
Only 7 days? and you wanted to do Paris, London and SPain? Are you out of your mind?. Please don't be a desi and don't just touch and go your vacation. In seven days you can do one of the three.
If you have TWO weeks, you can do paris, Central Switzerland and Venice, Italy for about $4000 for TWO people. This includes everything.
For seven days, I would recommend flying into Paris - spending three days in and around Paris and taking a train to Lucerne, Switzerland. It is an 8 hr train journey. Very scenic once you enter Switzerland. Spend another 3 days there and take a flight back home from Zurich.
You will need a multiple destination ticket. It doesn't cost more than a round-trip.
Newark (or JFK) --- Paris
Zurich --- Newark
Try this itinerary on Travelocity and see what you get.
A simple RT between Newark and Paris costs $450 and my recommended itinerary costs $520. It's well worth paying the extra $70 as you won't have to travel back to Paris. You will save not only time but some money too.
Air fare = $1100
Hotel for 6 nights at $150 per night = $900
Train / Bus etc = $300
Food / Entertainment = $600
Total for a week = approx. $3000
hmm that sounds very tiring.. but thats what I wanted to do..
thanku honey ![]()
PS have you ever been?
tiring? have you ever travelled?. (round trips to Pak don't count)
It's a lot of fun. You are experiencing new stuff almost daily. But it isn't for people who like the comforts of known places. I think you will enjoy a trip down to Orlando more than you would do Europe.
Stick to your Mickey.

i would if I could… that damned Salman
What damned him - Mickey or Paris?
actually the whole story is that last two years Salman and I both forgot our wedding anniversary..
so this year he wants to make it up… its his idea to got ot Europe..
I personally dont like traveling like this..
I’d rather go to cancun and sit on my ars all day …and relax.
So you see … I know not the first thing about this adventurous type of traveling.
and there is nothig wrong with going back to see mickey or my round trips to Pakistan ![]()
Anywhoo.. I reallt appreciate all the information.
Will let you know what we decide.
Make this a honeymoon trip with your wifey. It will be fun and romantic. ![]()
thats the plan mehnaz ![]()
i m gonna get a 3 week vacation..gotta go to pak first and get married..it will take up to 2 weeks..so i might just skip the idea of checkin out switzerland at this time..we are gona stop in london..and will just go to paris and back to london
btw funguy..i thought the euro pass was for 300 each person
Sheraz, the pass comes in different flavors. The price varies with number of days/countries.
awwww …
… khair, in London, she will feel like she’s back in Karachi. Believe me! Tell me before you go and I will tell you where to visit in London … assuming you haven’t been before.
