My friends and I are planning a trip thru Europe from May 31st to June 22.  These are the countries and cities we’re planning to visit.  We plan to party, some sightseeing, good eating, and just overall a good time in Europe.  If anyone has any suggests or helpful hints please don’t be shy to reply.  We have been researching for this trip about a month now and it’s so overwhelming to plan this whole trip out.

Greece – Athens – Ios from June 1- June 5 or 6 depend
Italy (4 days) – France (2-3 days) -Spain (3-4 Days)
Spain (Barcelona) fly out to Germany
Germany to Amsterdam
Finally from Amsterdam to London

1st. Question: How do you fucking get to Ios?  I have been doing a tremendous amount of research on find this question but still no luck.  If anyone have or known someone who have travel to ios and back.  Can you please answer this question?

2nd Question:  Is it possible to rent a car in Italy and return it in Spain? By doing this, we would use the car to travel from lower Italy (Rome) – to Florence France (Nice) or any other lower France cities, and finally too Spain (Barcelona).

3rd Question:  What is the best place to party in these cities (Athens, Ios, Rome, Florence, Nice, and Barcelona, Germany (no sure what city yet), and Amsterdam)

4th Question:  Favorite places or MUST See Places in these Cities

5th Question:  If you can pick one city in Germany which one and why? We are thinking about Munchen, Frankfurt, or Dussseldorf

Our mission on this trip is really to have a good time (partying, sightseeing, eating, and some exciting stuff) Not just partying all this time

You ferry to Ios. There is no airport. If you are in a hurry, you can fly from Athens to Santorni (a very beautiful island) and take a one hour ferry from Santorini to Ios.

If you are old enough to rent a car (there are regulations about this) you can rent it in one place and return it in another, but the drop-off fees can be expensive. To discuss this further, please ask your question in the Transport Forum.

It’s best to ask the nightlife questions in the Nightlife forum. Sorry.

If I could pick ONE city in Germany, I think it would be Berlin. Berlin just feels very hip and young and there is also plenty of history there.  But out of your choices, I’d take Munich.

Do you have plane tickets? Do you know where you are flying in and out of yet? Your itinerary does not look impossible, but we need to know your starting and stopping point. Is it London?

for the german city i would choose frankfurt, why? because the ice hockey team are decent ( personal reason i know ) but it has a pretty big bar area in the city and also towards the east of the city theres a bigger bar area. also i love apple wine and there was a brewery there which i didnt leave for days of my trip
