Tips

If you wish to extend your trip, consider adding a day in each city to explore hidden gems such as Paris’s Palace of Versailles, Amsterdam’s Keukenhof Gardens (seasonal), or Berlin’s Charlottenburg Palace. To shorten the itinerary, you could skip one of the cities—perhaps combine Amsterdam and Berlin into a single “Northern Europe” segment—and focus on fewer attractions, allowing more leisure time while reducing travel costs.
