It sounds good. Just keep in mind that going from England to ireland you will have to take a ferry (they could take a while). Also, when you can, take a night train and crash on the train that will give you more time to see places insted of trains. :cheers: :cheers: :cheers: :cheers: :cheers: :cheers: :cheers: :cheers: :cheers: :cheers: :cheers: :thumbup: :thumbup: :thumbup: :thumbup:

You might consider going to Spain before Italy. Its a pretty long journey to get through the Alps and to do that twice would suck up a lot of your time.

There's supposed to be a real fun ferry that goes from Ireland to France. They usually have movie theators and casinos in them. You might want to check that out.

Yeah, going by rail from London to Ireland will take a while - probably more than one night, as you'll probably have 2-3 transfers... The ferry's probably the way to go, or a cheap-ass flight (see: ryanair, easyjet, bmi). Same thing with Ireland to Amsterdam. I believe it's a 2-day ferry ride, and NOT cheap - at least, not when I looked into it.

TimmyJames1976 02-01-2005 11:17 AM

yeah, i was checking that out last night...i think flying to and from ireland will save me $$$ and time....thanx for the input....and i like the idea about doing spain be4 italy...makes a lot of sense...thanx again all!!!!!!!

Recomendations: Fly to Ireland.

Train from London to Paris....then to Spain(Barcelona), then Italy, then to Amsterdam, via...anywhere you wantin Switzerland. then fly from amsterdam to London or take train....check eurostar and ryanair to see which is cheaper

lemme know if you need help

Yea, sounds like a bit af a "cramped" trip...I prefer to take my time in each place. Awesome though! :cheers:

TimmyJames1976 02-02-2005 11:25 AM

yeah, i may have to take out a country...but im not sure when ill get to go back, so i want to see as many palces as possible...hmmm...ill have to work on it...thanx for all the adive every1

TimmyJames1976 02-07-2005 05:29 PM

i hate doing this but i have removed italy for a few reasons. So, this should add an extra day to each country, allowing for a less hectic schedule, and also cut down on the travel costs. so...london, then cheap flight to ireland, cheap flight to amsterdam, a few days there and the rest of the netherlands, rail to france, rail to madrid, cheap flight back to london where i fly home....its about 4 days and nights in each place, 5 in some...thanx for all the help everyone...it has been very handy-didly-andy :cheers:

kingcrazylegs 02-07-2005 06:23 PM

Dude, I think that you are making a good choice taking a country out :thumbup: You'll be much more relaxed that way. :cheers:
