London works best in neighbourhood-sized pieces. Pair a museum with nearby streets and leave time for the river or a park. The biggest budget choices are usually your room, airport journey and a few paid visits.

The Louvre and the Eiffel Tower can fill your booking calendar quickly. Leave a little Paris outside it: the free rooms of Carnavalet, a garden bench and a neighbourhood lunch can be just as much a part of the trip. Group your stops by area to save long metro rides.

Rome works best as several neighbourhood days. Put the ancient sites together, give the Vatican its own block of time and leave the lanes around the Pantheon for an unhurried walk. The distances add up quickly if you cross the city between every stop.

Tbilisi is a city of steep neighbourhoods, courtyards, sulphur-bath streets and broad avenues rather than one compact old town. Plan each day by area and use the metro or bus when the map hides a large climb.

Edinburgh has short map distances and real climbs. Give the Old Town, a museum and a park walk enough time, then choose a separate trip to Leith if it interests you. Castle tickets and festival dates deserve attention before the rest of the plan.

Copenhagen works well when you give each day a small area: the old centre, a neighbourhood, or the harbour. Choose one paid visit, leave time for a bakery stop and use the metro when walking starts to feel like a chore.

Six city bases, with four nights around Budapest before the journey into Romania. Leave long rail days free of timed sightseeing.
Two nights in Split, two on Hvar and time for Dubrovnik, with island connections booked before the rooms.
Link London, Paris, Amsterdam and Berlin in fourteen days by rail. Use the full days for the visits that matter, with lighter plans after each international journey.
Six hotel nights with three road and rail journeys, two mountain nights and a measured finish in western Georgia.
Check documents for the whole journey, leave room for the road transfer and keep shopping allowances separate from entry permission.
Match your bus with the right park entrance and return stop, then choose an open route that leaves enough time for the journey home.
Choose a car for your route, check cover and 2026 road-use charges, then compare the whole vehicle cost with tours for your group.
