Default What are the best places to travel in europe this summer 2009?

Starting the trip off in geneva, and looking to go to germany possible austria and maybe parts of eastern europe.. 4 of us are students so budget is tight, but also looking to have fun i.e if they're any good festivals or cheap gigs going on. We're only travelling for 10 days so we're looking to see the best of the best. Heat factor and train prices will also be a factor

Prag,Czech-Republic is a great place to visit for a day, plus the hostels as dirt cheap there. Within a hour from Prague is a pretty cool church made out of skulls from the days of the black plague. When your in Germany, much sure you ask for the special summer tickets (train tickets) as you'll save a lot of money this way.

Thumbs up Re: What are the best places to travel in europe this summer 2009?

Geneva is expense especially if you're on a budget

Austria is not far behind in terms of being expensive too.

Southern Germany is worth seeing and is resonably cheap.
I would recommend Munich - superb place, very friendly and plenty to see and do (visit BMW, Olympic Stadium, old town).

Prague is nice - I haven't been there but many friends/collegues have nd they all gave it, top marks.
