[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Europe is a big place OP. You have to help us here. What countries interest you? Where have you been before?[/quote]

I know that’s why I want the best places to go w kids those ages :)

I’ve been to: Sweden (all over), Copenhagen, Amsterdam, Paris, Rome, Venice, Florence, Prague & other areas of CZ, Vienna, London, krakow, Ireland. But this was all in my teens and 20s before I was thinking about traveling w kids.

I was thinking London would be easy w kids. Maybe also Copenhagen and Amsterdam.

Well for a first time trip, some combo of London, Edinburgh, Paris, etc would work. Personally I wouldn’t waste time with Copenhagen or Lisbon, even though they are for some reason always mentioned here. Honestly I wouldn’t do the cities at all, but smaller towns in England and France, which would be far more authentic, but requires more careful planning and rental cars. [/quote]

Mostly agree with this. I would aim for one or two countries only, and max 3 different places you stay, so around 4-5 days in each place. Shorter than that and it feels like you are constantly running around. I would do one of those stops in a big city, and the other 2 in smaller towns or beach or mountains, etc. Make sure the logistics between places is easy- a single train ride, or an easy flight. We did a trip where we went to a beach town near Barcelona, then to the French Alps, then train to Paris to end the trip. Mixing up the environments like that worked really well.[/quote]
