Mediterranean Express: Rivieras & Railroads
Jump on this quick (and affordable) seven-day tour of some of Europe's greatest cities.

And hey, think of the food to be tried on a tour from Rome to Barcelona! (Good thing you'll be walking so much.) Travel on trains and leave the coach bus behind on this life-changing experience.
