Question : Travel Sights in England, Netherlands, Germany, Austria, Vatican City, Italy, Switzerland and France?
I'm planning on a 16-day-trip to Europe, the countires include England, (Belgium in transit), Netherlands, Germany, Austria, Vatican City, Italy, Switzerland and France. Are there "must-see" sights? Any reconmmendations? Or any cool, but not so well-known sights/things that you think I must go or do? Please Please answer my question. This is my first time going to Europe by the way.

Eight countries in 16 days...that's 2 days in each country.Now, logically what can you see. Unless you take a guided tour package.But all these in two weeks, you will be very disappointed.Sorry.

Hmm a lot of places in so little time.I haven't been to Germany, Austria or Switzerland, but would recommend the main cities eg London, Paris and Rome (at least 2 days each and that would be rapid viewing of the main sights and you will be exhausted). I would recommend those tours buses in cities where you can get an overall fell of the place, some info and you can get off at those major sights (tickets last 24 hrs usually)Places in London: London Eye, Parliment buildings/big ben and Westminster abbey (all close ot each other), tower of London.Paris....hmm lots here, matro is great to get around too. Eiffel tower, arc de triumph, notre dame, the louvre, maybe versailles (out of Paris), alexander III bridgeRome: colloseum, roman forum, trevi fountain, pantheon, vatican and sistine chapel.I didn't think that much of the Netherlands (I thought 3 days was WAYYYY too long,) but loved Belgium (The Brussels town square is stunning and Bruges is lovely (and great chocolate) for an afternoon.You could spend all your time in Italy and France...so many places...maybe you could try some variety eg Venice...well thats different to all other cities, Siena is lovely (medieval style), Florence (is busy but beautiful) and renaissance.I went to central France around the Lot area to see a place called Rocamadour which is quite stunning and the whole area is filled with little medieval viallges and just lovely.Learn about some of the history of some things as they make you appreciate thigs more and I missed out on that a bit at some places!!Have a great trip.

think twice about what you plan to dono way you can see all these countries in 16days! even if you have already been there,there is no time to see anythingunless you want just to say you've been in Europeeven if you have a guide with you,no way...sorrysample: only for Rome and Vatican you need at least 3days,and where is the rest of Italy?only for Paris you need 2days plus 1day for Louvre,andwhere is the rest of France?with travel time (assume you are flying) in-out airports>>>>that is already a week for two countries, you have 5more.......no way
