ilycd, sorry i hardly chk postings here anymore. but i like to assure u that its definitely possible to do it within ur budget. we spent 24 days exploring paris, london & switzerland (bear in mind, these are all expensive cities/country) & we spent less than $8000 for 2 pax (all in). of...

hi there, i'm the op of tis thread. appreciate all the help here previously. we have since completed our honeymoon last sept/oct & i have post my thoughts in another thread. honeymoon in europe (even for 1st-timers) is perfectly doable & we did it for less than $8000 for 2pax for...

hihi, we did japan for 16 days (f&e) more than 3yrs ago. we only covered tokyo & its surrounding area (like hakone, nikko, kamakura etc). if you are still keen, can PM me for itinerary & pics.

sahdeau, sorry for the late reply! do leave ur email addy & i'll be happy to share my itinerary with u though it wont be too relevant to where u r planning to visit since we din cover italy. nevertheless, i did read up on italy as i was looking at planning a trip there this year but this...

dear all, sorry for the lack of response here. been unwell for past few weeks, turned out i'm expecting a baby! kristine, do note that the period u like to travel, e.g feb-mar is likely to be cold and wet. days are short and some places of interest are closed during these times of the year...

btw under bubble, forgot to add that we had rainy weather in switzerland towards mid oct. that said, the rain is very mild (not those heavy downpour). we never did have to use our umbrellas, instead we just walked with our waterproof capes on. it rarely rain the entire day too, mostly its those...

jessica, u r welcome! and nope, i'm not actually thinking along the same line but nonetheless, i hope u can make ur passion comes true. kristine, dont mention! i think the rail europe webby is more expensive. if u need to get a swiss pass, check out sta travels (google them), their rates...

hi jessica, welcome on board! i think u may have hit the nail on the head. i couldnt quite figure out why there are still many people who prefer to go with packaged tours? of course, there will always be those who feel that planning for a f&e trip can be very daunting, especially in...

hi kristine, i've sent my itinerary to ur email ([email protected]). let me know when u get it. since its a specific itinerary pertaining to our actual travel, use only those info that are applicable to urs. i hope they are helpful in one way or the other. if time permits on day 1, do...

rainette, its nice to hear of ur experience in switzerland! and wow, u r planning for korea next! thats cool. when is this trip taking place?perhaps fellow travellers can cross reference ur f&e trip there in the near future. we spent 2 weeks in switzerland too. of course, we barely...

angela, yes, ursula & chris are really very nice folks! actually, their rooms are very nice & spacious (big by europe standards). their windows look out to mountain views. we are very pleased with our room at rugenpark & much prefer it to our room at 3* best western hotel in...

wow, that's quite alot of money spent! for airfares, you may want to check out webby like airfares.com.sg etc, sign up for their newsletter, they will email you whenever there are any airfares promo. when you shortlist certain airfares by certain airlines, do check out that particular airline's...

hey raymond, ur article sure comes in handy and will certainly be very beneficial for fellow travellers. angela, since u r also staying in the nation area, why not consider taking the RATP bus 351 from CDG airport to nation directly? you can buy carnet (set of 10 metro tickets) at CDG. it...

hi angela, i reckon the most common & cost-effective way to get to paris city from CDG airport is via RER B trains however, i've also heard that this particular route is packed with the most pickpockets. other modes of tranports incl the airport buses (not so cheap) or perhaps, you may want...

hey raymond, yes, yes i did see ur pics... wow, thats quite a variety & delectable spread of food in there. certainly the food with packaged tours are incomparable and not to mention, mostly bland stuffs. and i really second that b&b lodgings can be very, very charming. i took care...

hi raymond, nice to hear from u. i have to admit that initially we were tied between joining a packaged tour or go f&e. we previously did japan f&e 3 years back & it was very enjoyable not to mention we only spent under $5000 for 2 pax for 16 days (excl. flight times & all...

this seems very true for us at least. will like to share my thoughts for those who are tied between joining a tour operator or on ur own. we had just returned from our f&e honeymoon in paris, london & switzerland. we spent a total of 24 days (excl. flight times) and the trip cost us...

btw, did anyone try skydiving/paragliding/handgliding/canyoning/riverrafting before?? i'm actually pretty keen to try skydiving but it costs like CHF460!!! faintz... may go for paragliding though, looks fun and the dare-devil in me have always wanted to experience it. i tried canyon...
