Dear followers of our page, we are asking you to vote between two separate itineraries for a month-long guided tour of Europe in summer of 2024. Although the interaries are similar, there are some differences between the two. Itinerary A includes a two night stay in the seaside town of Piran, Slovenia. It also includes a multi night stay in Holland and three nights in Prague.

Itinerary B doesn't include Piran, but does include three nights in the French Riviera (Marseille), a walking tour of Arles, and a one night stay in the Cinque Terre of Italy. However, it only allows a one night stay in Holland and just two nights in Prague. It is also slightly more expensive than the other itinerary - about $100 more per person.

Here are the two full itineraries:

Itinerary A: London 4 nights, Paris 3 nights, Bruges 2 nights, Amsterdam area 2 nights, Berlin 2 nights, Prague 3 nights, Vienna 2 nights, Munich 2 nights, Bled 1 night, Piran 2 nights, Venice 2 nights, Florence 2 nights, Rome 3 nights

Itinerary B: London 4 nights, Paris 3 nights, Marseille 3 nights, Rome 3 nights, Cinque Terre 1 night, Florence 2 nights, Venice 2 nights, Bled 1 night, Munich 2 nights, Vienna 2 nights, Prague 2 nights, Berlin 2 nights, Amsterdam area 1 night, Bruges 2 nights

If the spirit moves you, you can also vote on your preferred month (2024):
1. Mostly June
2. Mostly July

So, for instance if you vote for itinerary B in June, you would vote for B1. Itinerary A in July would be A2 and so on.

Thanks!
