It’s my partner’s and my first trip to Europe. We fly into Amsterdam early Thursday and fly home from Paris late Sunday night (back to Seattle).
Trying to figure out two things:
How many days makes sense for Amsterdam vs Paris?
Is it realistic to add one more stop in between, and if so, where?
We were thinking maybe 2 nights Amsterdam, 2 nights somewhere else, then 3 nights Paris. Friends keep hyping Switzerland, but Zurich feels a bit out of the way for such a short trip unless it’s really worth it. Open to other ideas that fit naturally between the two cities without turning the trip into a nonstop travel scramble.
Would love suggestions from anyone who’s done a similar route, especially for a first Europe trip.
