After checking out several tour suppliers, I have booked a 15 day "European Magic" tour with Trafalgar. A friend whose husband is unable to travel due to not being able to obtain health insurance, is going with me. She is very excited as she thought she'd never get there.

The tour starts in London and goes to France, Monaco, Switzerland and Italy. We will be visiting Paris, Nice, St. Paul de Vence, Monte Carlo, Geneva, Florence, Venice, Pisa and Rome. It looks like an excellent itinerary although I'm sure our days will be full. We leave from Toronto on April 30th so we got a reasonable "shoulder" price as well as a couple of discounts for booking and paying in advance.

I'd appreciate any tips from Ziners who have taken this tour.

Thanks, Pat in Ontario
