help with time and location!

[fliprose]

hey guys i'm wondering if you guys could help me out with i'm planning a trip in 2008 with a friend of mine but he can only stay for 3 weeks but i'm planning on staying an extra 2 weeks. we plan on arriving in london first and i was wondering if this plan is do-able any suggestion would be great.

first 3 weeks we really want to go to...

london, amsterdam, paris, rome, venice, florence


do you guys know how i should break this up? should we see other cities on the way through other countries? i think the more cities the better for me i want to see it all.

my remaining 2 weeks i'd love to see maybe germany, belgium, scotland and ireland. what should i do with the remaining 2 weeks i have there!

my main problem is how should i divide the time between these locations. i don't know how long it takes from each places by train if anyone has a map that shows how long each ride from city to city it would be great.

if anyone can help me get started it would be greatly appreciated!!!

It is possible to complete the first leg of your journey in 3 weeks. If you are taking a train, I would do London, Paris, Amsterdam, Venice, Florence, and Rome. I would spend no more than 3-4 days in each city. You are going to have to add in travel time, with the trip from Paris to Venice being the longest.

For the other 2 weeks, I think it will be difficult to see all of the places. I would either see Germany and Belgium or Scotland and Ireland. You should consider seeing Belgium on the first 3 weeks since you have to pass through it to go from Paris to Amsterdam.

Look at the locations in Google Maps. It will give you a good idea where everything is. I would also look at train timetables to get and idea of how long it will take to travel from place to place. You may as want to think about using a budget airline like easyjet or ryanair for your long distance trips like Italy to Ireland.
