23 days the European destination of experience chat articles

See the 23 days of the European destination of schedule lines article http://www.ctrip.com/community/itinerarywri/showwriting.asp?writing=799578&area=&user=

1. about traffic

From China to Europe, the cheapest way is to buy Russia airlines, El Al Israel Airlines, three Turkey airlines air tickets as low as siwuqian RMB, respectively, in Moscow, Tel Aviv, Istanbul, time sure to sacrifice some low fares, after all.

Second, buy domestic airlines air tickets, from Beijing, Paris, Frankfurt, Rome, Milan, Amsterdam, Vienna, Copenhagen, Stockholm and other cities have direct flights, either a plies or from one city to another city, and as long as the two parts of the same airline operating the flight, but the latter is obviously higher fares, or to sell international ticket staff detailed inquiries. For example, buy Air China Beijing-Paris, Rome – Beijing, thus more conducive to their journeys, and save time.

Because LG to travel to Copenhagen, our first stop was to go to Brussels, and there is no direct flight to Beijing, so our choice is single: purchase SAS (Scandinavian Royal airlines) Beijing to Copenhagen round trip ticket, Air China operations of this line is and SAS shared flights.

If you buy from Air China, General 7000-7200 Yuan (RMB), depending on the season, but we buying SAS to 8350 (above prices are not including tax). But the benefits of buying foreign airlines, fares, you can free shuttle within Europe, we of course select the Copenhagen-Brussels round trip ticket. But the ticket presented is to tax collection, our ultimate fares is 9175 yuan/person, is not cheap, but affected by stroke, also had to be so now.

Train ticket we purchased a third countries freely pass (Eurail Select Pass), two people travel together, take 2 months, 6 days is $ 336 per person, in Beijing, with the purchase of a total of RMB spent more than five thousand pieces.

We selected three countries: France, Germany, Benelux. In fact, if the advance booking, in Europe a lot of lines you can buy a special ticket, but it seems that not all line, therefore, to save money, you can follow you can buy tickets for the special price to journeys than to purchase ticket to value. I found many online discount tickets, but our itinerary cannot be fully connected by special vote, no special ticket prices for line, while the odd expensive in these places and I really don't have the heart to leave, of the results of the count down to the direct purchase of point-to-point tickets and purchase ticket prices almost, considering the flexibility, or the ticket. But this experience has given me some experience, may be able to apply to future travel.

Finally to say about cheap flights in Europe, as a result of a call 3000 dollars around the world books hot fried, I'm afraid that now all the Chinese people know that there are 8 cents ticket this thing anymore.

Although the author was hilarious, but rarely to the reader's specific information, you are out of the airline ticket, I'll have a Web site? we all know that foreign flights have to collect taxes, even if ticket no matter how cheap, tax money can't be 0 for this special cheap airline tickets, flights are usually tax and General, equal, which is often much larger than the ticket tax. Even lucky enough to buy a ticket to 8 cents, ten blocks of tax does not escape. In addition, these flights also have to make money, how to reduce costs, one of the most common method is the use of small airports around city, that is, that is to go to Barcelona, in fact it landed at the distance of 100 km far from Barcelona, another small cities, and from the airport to your true destination, usually by train, car 1 hour so far. That is, if you save money on tickets, in time, spend more on strength. For travelers, this really worth, according to their own circumstances. We flew back to Brussels from Barcelona flights, and not that kind of special low-cost airlines, the main considerations into convenient, landing airport is the city's most important one. But the price is not very expensive, Virgin Express, 2 personal tax total less than 100 euros, can be booked online.

Second, talk about accommodation

Relative to domestic frequently can be cut to three hundred dollars of Samsung hotel, Europe, the most common small hotels to 5 euro is indeed very difficult to accept that.

Since we are two people, there is no need to stay youth hostel, find the family hotel cheap double room is the most appropriate. Relatively independent, quiet room, the price is not more expensive than the youth hostel. Generally this small hotel room is divided into three, the cheapest room without bathroom and shower facilities, but often the room has a wash basin, the wash rinse your mouth what can get in the room. A little expensive little room will add a shower facilities, usually installed in a corner of a room, enclosed with the shower curtain, humble, but very practical. The most high-grade room of course is a complete bathroom, equivalent to us standard room, in order to save money, most of the time we are living in the first two rooms.

Cheap hotel in Lonely Planet travel guide such as easy to find, we mainly refer to the Lonely Planet, Let ' s go, Rick Steves these kind of books.

Before departure, by Email, phone, and other forms of booked Amsterdam, Munich, Berlin, Barcelona, four of the hotel, Paris rooms are found on our books, students from Paris to investigate it myself too, is the most expensive in this row. In Germany, mainly because we are for the convenience of trying to find a hotel near the railway station, the more expensive, in fact, if a bit far few kilometres, much can be cheap. Provence region hotel we didn't, becauseConsidering that a few days is not very sure, so I want the flexibility, also good, may, after all, is not the busiest seasons there, we have successfully found the hotel, and the price is very satisfactory.

Although the departure before listening to a lot about how small hotels in Europe is not good, but the live of this line and all we are very satisfied.

Expensive or expensive, but this is in contrast to our level of consumption is concerned, there is no way to only accept. We live in average price is 45 euros, should also be available. Rooms are usually not large, but very clean, bathroom and toilet are common to a very clean, no inconvenient. Health supplies we have become accustomed with, environmental protection and health.

However there is one thing to remind you that many hotels are not willing to accept credit cards, certainly because fees high, but on the traveler, you cannot credit card means to bring in more cash.

In fact, in some countries, credit card usage and not as we imagine in domestic, many shops, restaurants, minimum consumption of is 15, or even 25 euros. Some attractions tickets or credit card, we take cash out, also good in ATM cash withdrawal on quite convenient, we use the Peony international card checked the back seems to have received a cash handling fee of 1%, was OK.

III about eating and drinking

Eat and drink is in addition to transportation and accommodation away from the most important thing a big overhead, and also the flexibility of a relatively large.

Fortunately, Europe travel, mostly in the economically developed cities, very easy to find the supermarket supplementary provision. All day, eat from the supermarket bought bread, meat, vegetables and fruits, estimated 5, 6 euros a person. Like France's long hacks bread 0.7 Europe one, before each one, then buy a 2.1 package sausage and ham what up two Ternary, vegetable and fruit picking cheap buy as much as possible, water is tap water.

But every day that eating is not possible, the appropriate care for yourself, try the local cuisine, is also an important part of travel.

Enter the local upscale restaurant I'm afraid not, self-service travellers affordable, it's best to go to some local people and others recommend small restaurants, cheap and good, but it is best to know what a good point. If the language barrier, but into that kind of specialized to travelers prepare restaurant, the benefit is that the menu is pictorial, or at least know that they can get, the taste can be. In a restaurant, a package (including the former dishes and main course) generally at least 10-15 EUR, a cup drink 2-3 euros. If your appetite is not particularly large, as long as the main course, a lot of places are € 7, 8, then a main course 10 euros or a little early to get.

Sometimes the hotel price includes breakfast, it may be time to eat a good breakfast, usually have bread, milk, orange juice, butter, jam, cucumber slices, ham, fruit, etc., the ordinary people have the habit of eating.

No free breakfast, we usually on the roadside or at the station store, buy a clip of meat, cheese, vegetable sandwich or Hamburger, not necessarily what delicious, but fairly comprehensive nutrition, up to a 2, 3, sufficient support euro one morning, sometimes even get it when lunch or dinner.

On fast food, I do not think that foreign KFC, McDonald's special taste bad, I visited a few fast-food restaurant, species are very complete, but compared to domestic hamburger, clip seems to more vegetables.

Of course every day eat squeamish, but occasionally eat once, and also relatively economical choice. We in Berlin, at the roadside pizza take-away window, buy a package includes a glass of Cola, two pie, not only 5 euros. You can only stand at the side of the table to eat, but delicious.

Drinking water issues, we drink tap water, also bought in supermarkets, because bottled water France Spain of bottled water is cheap.

Mineral water, of course, taste better, but drink the tap water is absolutely no problem. If you must drink water that's no way out, only their own back an electric kettle.

In General, in the European dishes is not our objective of this line is not wanted, but didn't have the money nor effort to find it.

But there is a strong Chinese cuisine as the backing, we are not too sorry, think of yourself in European meal money at home can pinch several meal? In addition, because do not eat food, a lot of things for the first time and may not be able to taste a good or bad, many delicious to gradually become familiar with before you can feel good about it, we hurried over 20 days is not out, fortunately, we had no road diet is not used, do not like, basically are acceptable, and could miss lunch too. 20 days without eating spicy, face and head was down a lot, but this one came back stronger, longer back again. HA HA, in short, to enjoy the appetites, or return to it, who we all have a Chinese stomach!
