New Journal Entry

So we are just over a month from leaving to Paris and Italy .  I for one can't wait.  My girlfriend and I have all our necessary travel documents, booked the flights, hotels, bought some museum passes.  For Paris , we got the three day Paris Visite Pass.  It includes admission to a number of museums and sites as well as a time for the Louvre admission. It also included a metro card and a trip down the Seine .  We will still have to pay for the Eiffel Tower and a few other sites, but nothing big. Our Hotel looks very nice and is in a great location within walking distance of the tower.  Venice should be a little more relaxing of a tour as we seem to have way too much to see in Paris than we can possibly accomplish in 3 days.  We are planned to stay in Venice for 2 days after an overnight train from Paris .  We then take another train to Florence for two days.  I am really looking forward to Florence .  Renaissance art and architecture is one of my favorite periods.  We then travel down to Rome for two more days before our departure back to Las Vegas .

Hey Eric,
My boyfriend and I were thinking about a trip exactly like this! Do you mind if I ask...how much did this cost you? We're trying to plan for it around September of next year. Also, do you know if that is a good time to travel there? I've never been overseas, so this is all new to me!

Hi,
Do you know how long it takes to get from the Cannaregio area to Murano Island and then to Burano Island?

Hello! I'm based here in the Middle East and we are planning to visit Paris-Milan-Venice-Rome in September. Our entry point will be in Paris and our exit point is in Rome, for a Schengen visa is it allowed to have different entry and exit point? Please advice me. Thanks!

Well i think i was in about $4,500 with flight from vegas and back, rails between cities in europe, hotels, and some of the city passes and museum passes. This doesn't include food and some added museum entraces here and there....The flights seem to be less than half of the trip for me.

I like this trip but can't determine the price.

I used Google....a lot! before we made our trip. I planned out per day where we'd go. It did not always work out but with a map that we recieved with the Paris and Rome passes, we were able to locate all the destinations. I also had my iphone on me with a out of country plan. Careful though you can eat up data quick. 10 days isn't too much time as I found out. We did a really fast trip and did not get a chance to really appriciate a lot in the time we spent. 5 days in both paris and rome would be good enough to see a lot. we would have liked to go see Versailles, other museums in both rome and Paris and maybe small trips out of the city. We just wanted to see too much in our short time so that is what we did. I honestly do not think I could spend more than 3 or 4 days in Venice as someone else posted here. It was a very beautiful city, the rain did damper our visit there, but it is a small place and you really can see a lot in 3 days. I really would like to spend some more time in all the cities we visited especially paris and florence. i think our next trip to italy we definatly will hit up the Amalfi coast...it looks too beautiful to miss. I never heard of easy jet. Is it really 80 bucks from rome to paris? That would have made things so much easier. The trips from venice to florence and florence to rome really were not that bad and fairly quick.

One more thing what website did you use to map out how to get from your hotel to attractions around paris and rome?
