hello,
uhh we're from calgary and graduating this year and hoping to go to europe this summer for about 3 weeks..or something.

We want to see as many countries as possible, but also experiencing the culture. is 3 weeks long enough? and do you think it is possible to participate in the trip for under $2000 including airfare.

Do you recommend staying in hostels? Is the euro pass worth it on the trains?

We have no idea what to expect, where to go, what to see, kind of deal. Tips would be great. thanks

HELP US!!

Eurail Pass - absolutely worth it. Check out the link on the right-hand side "Eurail / Eurorail Passes" and that'll take you to a site with more information.

I've used them a few times, great bang for your buck especially when you want to travel a lot in a short period of time.

$2000 each should be enough for three weeks. Definitely stay in hostels, it's your cheapest bet. Good luck including flights in that though - They're going to probably be around $1000 each depending on where you fly into.

Three weeks isn't a lot of time, but I'd say it's enough to see at least a few countries! Don't force yourself to a schedule, just go wherever, whenever you feel like it. Don't try to cram everything in or you just won't have a good time.

Good luck!
