I’m planning on going on this tour but for the following week’s departure on 10/26/12. Have you booked your trip yet?

So you are all booked for the trip? Are you doing anything else before or after the trip?

Not quite yet. But hopefully by next week will have everything finalized. Unfortunately, I don’t have enough vacation days saved up to do much else before or after. It’ll just be the tour this time.

Well that sucks that you don’t have enough days. Especially because even though they claim its 12 days the trip is actually 10. I’m thinking of extending the stay in Budapest by a day or two and than taking an overnight train to Zurich for another 3 nights

I know, it sucks. But I have taken those travel days into account. If anything, I may extend 1 more day in Budapest to rest before the long trip back to CA. Enjoy! And please check back in after your trip and give me some tips!

Well we still might end up on the same trip since the 19th is not set in stone. I think it’s always good to find out people you might be traveling with

Sweet. I’m leaning towards the 10/26 one also since it saves me two vacation days because of holidays. I might wait though until its a definite departure which they say it becomes automatic when its 45 days or less before the departure.
Did they provide you with hotel info and/or itinerary?

=/ I can’t get the days off of work to leave on the 19th. Nov9 was the best I could do. It’ll be cold… but still AWESOME! Have you decided on your trip yet?

What my plan is I will wait until the trip becomes a last minute deal which is about a month before and I will book it than. They have one for 9/21 with a $325 discount so I figure middle of September they will have one for the 10/19/12 trip

true… but whatever discount they give you on the tour, you’re going to end up paying in the airfare… just a thought.
BTW… they gave me a similar discount for having to reschedule my tour to 11/09. =)

you got a good point there but I don’t forsee the price going up by more than $100 between now and mid-September besides it will almost be free because I will use points on my credit card
