Tips

If you need to shorten the trip, consider dropping one day each from Paris, Tuscany, and Prague, and combine the day trips to Giverny and Kutná Hora into a single morning‑afternoon excursion. To extend the adventure, add a full day in Munich for the Dachau Memorial and another day in Rome to explore the Appian Way and Catacombs, or spend extra time in the Amalfi Coast after Rome for a coastal finale.
