If you are positive you are going to be with your friends, look into the those, its a good way to save cash. Well,...

Quote: I like the fact that a Eurail pass gives the flexibility to leave whenever we want. Also... I'm pretty certain we'd be taking the overnight train from Rome to Paris, and I have read without a pass a ticket for that can be very expensive.

Yeah I have a few I'll try to get up here! All my pics down there were "real photos", so I've needed to scan them on the comp. It was the best time of my life so far, like many study abroad years. It was also during the financial crisis, which was kinda crazy, but also so cool to be there during that time! Exchange students were almost sent home, but luckily the ones out any direct turmoil, like BA, could stay....

If you go with 6 cities and one of the journey's between cities being a plane from London to wherever you're going to, then you'll have enough travel days on the 5 day flexi pass. Price out the different rail passes and price out the individual train tickets and choose whichever is cheaper. If you think you'll be traveling much more, then yeah, the 15 day pass (or 21 if it's a promo) is worth it, but if you're...

I know it saves on accomodatoin for the night, but with the time limit you have it might be best trying to save on time. Its just a suggestion, but if you were to fly, you could go from Naples to Florence the back down to Rome.....

^ cool I'll get in touch with ya when I arrive there. Maybe we will be in the same town at one point and can meet up.

Wow, fun fun!

My friend is off to Chile Dec 2nd I believe. Going up through Argentina on his quest to make it from the straight of Magellan to the U.S. on land(as much as possible). I'll have to ask him what his plans are in Argentina, he's been doing a ton of research.

I'd definitely skip Milan, and Pisa can be done in a day trip. As much as I love germany, I think you're going to have to skip a few cities there, too. I haven't actually been to that part of germany though so I can't make a recommendation. I will say that I think Munich requires less time than you might think, yes you can sit in a beer hall for days but you can actually see the sights and have a few good beer garden/beer...
