                  each of the above places warrants a separate tour on its own

                  too much time spent flying here / there between London Paris Zurich

                  but classified ads tend to give a good idea on workable itinerary and major agencies like CTC, SA, Dynasty (?) do cover these places

                  have never used any agency before. always self drive and self book

                  hope other forumers with experience on agencies will share

                    Thanks, vks2010. I have also never joined a package tour before, so I am thinking of trying one for Europe, a place that I am not familiar with.
                    I saw the ad in newspapers by CTC, SA, Chan Brothers, Dynasty etc. I think one of them had a complaint from CASE, can't remember which one. So, hope I won't be too suay to pick just that one. πŸ˜„

You don't really get to visit museums etc. A lot of times they make only photostops at well known landmarks only. You should try checking the itinerary provided by land tour operators like Insight. They are more expensive but they tend to have better hotels and tour inclusions and more relaxed pace.
