Don't scoff at short European tours
I recently returned from the shortest vacation trip I have ever made to Europe, one that spent only six nights there. And I want to report that if that's the most time you have for a trip, as it was for me, the experience can be perfectly fine. We stayed in one location, Stockholm, Sweden. We went to sleep for about three hours immediately on arrival, we paced ourselves during the next two days, napping whenever we could. And with jet lag controlled in that manner, we had a perfectly fine vacation, without feeling short-changed for time. This coming fall and winter, airfares to Europe will again be at their lowest level, and all sorts of tour operators will be offering packages that spend no more than six nights in the Old World. My advice is: try it.Add a comment about this post.
