Hi,

We are a family of 5 planning our first trip to Europe from Dubai in September.

We have four weeks and would prefer to cover four countries - Italy, Austria, Switzerland and France. If possible, we would also like to cover Netherlands or Spain but we know time is short so we will probably keep it for another time.

Italy will be our first point of entry and we definitely want to see Venice, Naples amd Florence. At France, we are mainly interested in Paris. At Austria, we would like to explore innsbruck for sure and maybe vienna as well. Switzerland interlaken, Mount titlis, Lucerne and a bit of Geneva.

Do you think it's possible in a period of a month?

Alternatively, anyone knows of a good package deals?

You could do all these places quite easily in 4 weeks. Consider driving hired car/s through the various destinations you want to see.. From Venice you can drive into nearby Austria then Switzerland. - from there to France - either north to Paris or south to Barcelona. From Paris you can take train to Netherlands. Or from Italy you can go to South of France and drive A8 motorway along the coast into Spain.Be aware trains in the South of France are often on strike but Swiss trains are very good.You wont see so much of Europe if you try to fly everywhere. However beware of being stopped and robbed on roads in Italy by Eastern Europeans pretending to be policemen. This happened to my daughter south of Genoa - police told her it was quite common.
