We have been going to Europe for years at around a couple of times a year both by Transatlantic and going directly to place. The question is what did we like the best. I guess No.1 was the time we rented and spent time in a Villa in Tuscany. We rented a car in Paris and drove to Tuscany to a Villa we had rented. The driving is easy and it would be hard to beat the trip. No.2 would probably be spending time in Paris at Christmas. No.2.1 would be one of the many Transatlantic's to Med. For the ones that we were/are not high on: No.1 An 8 day bus tour through Ireland. (Mother/Father are from
Ireland). Boring time on bus, not a lot to see lots of sheep and grass. Again there are different tastes as to what is liked. No.2 Very hot days in Rome. No.3 A drive from Milan to Venice. Very crowded on road, in Venice. and
getting on ship for trip to US via Transatlantic. These are just some feedback. Can PM if you would like more details.
