Hey,
You’re visiting a lot of the same places as I am next summer Smile
Trying to decide between Bruges and Antwerp. Any reason why you picked Bruges?

Honestly, I picked Bruges because I saw it on an episode about it on the Travel Channel and it looked pretty cool. I’m still debating between the different places on the itinerary, and probably won’t get to all of them. When were you planning on doing your trip?

Hey, Fair enough. I’d love to do both Bruges and Antwerp, but probably won’t have enough time (or money) for all my destinations either. We’re leaving roughly the end of June or beginning of July. How about yourself?

We’re either going to go either June/July or September-ish, depending on prices. How many days were you planning on? The hardest part for us is finding the best way to get between the places. We’ve looked into either getting the Eurail pass, or maybe cutting back on the destinations and buying individual train tickets.

Basically how I picked the itinerary is that my wife and I both want to go to Amsterdam, I want to go to Prague and she wants to go somewhere ‘pretty’ in the Alps. So everywhere else is pretty much just destinations between those cities.
