Thanks for the information guys, this has helped a lot. Bern sounds like an awesome place, I can't wait to see all the medieval architecture. I really want to see Napoleon's tomb in Paris now.

Napoleon's tomb is quite impressive indeed. There's also a museum about warfare , so if you are interested in that you might want to ceck it out. Also you might want to have a look to the cathedral and Versaille (it's not in the centrum tough). Also Mont Martre is always a bit fun. Be ware of pick pocketers and folks trying to sell stuff. Some try to make you an armband, so keep your arms away from them cause before you know they made one and they want you to pay for it. Also you can a crêpe (pancake) from stalls, they are cheap and good. Verry nice for a quick snack. Centre Georges Pompidou is also a must visit together with the Louvre at least if you like art that is. Also I don't know for how long you're going but I'd try not to visit everything in one day, give it some time and make time to get lost in the endless streets. (For all cities not just paris).Originally Posted by Ice
If you like shopping or modern architecture, La defence might not be a bad idea. (La grande arche)
Brussels, well the capitol of Belgium so I should know all about it. You could see the Atomium it's the eiffel tower of Brussels. (not really a tower tough...). For art museums well there's a museum about instruments and "het museum voor schone kunsten" is the louvre of Brussels.
HAve to go now, will continue tomorrow.
Don't forget to drop by the Bulldog when in Amsterdam, sure you and your friends 'll have a blast.

It's on the list, Dutch_guy. I'm also making sure I visit the Grey Area. This time, I know what I'm doing. Last summer, when my friend and I stopped by, we both had WAY to much and passed out. The guy eventually kicked us out because we were scaring the customers.Originally Posted by Dutch_guy

I've been to all those cities, AMS, BRX, CDG many times. BRN, 3 or 4 times, MUC twice. Amsterdam, Brussels, Paris right here in my neighbourhood. If I take the train now I can be in any of those cities in less than 1.5 hours.
You might wanna jump off the train and visit Antwerp too (it's on the line between BRX and AMS).
AMS is such a great city. BE PREPARED !!!
A lot of Americans I know freak out when they see that place. It's one of the most fun cities anywhere IMO.
I know you said no more places, but I should mention... if I were you I'd go CPH (Copenhagen) as well. Classy and TOTALLY crazy. A load of fun. My eyes almost popped out there, the chicks are soooooo HOT, and friendly, open minded like you don't wanna know. Like the Dutch, but only ... Scandinavian.
I hope to go back there this sumer, that and Sweden.
What are you looking for ? Nightlife, sex, cultural, historic, sightseeing ? Bit of all ?
Can you be more specific ? I might be able to give you some pointers.

I basically support anyone who isn't Bayern München, and München when they play against a non-German team. I have a bit of a soft spot for Werder Bremen and Aachen because I've seen them both play. The Aachen fans I saw were insane, and my first dose of fußball freaks. As for Werder my host brother really likes them so I sort of have to like them...
Ice have fun on your Eurotrip!

If you have the time, try to visit some smaller cities and go off the beaten track. Take your time to discover the 'soul' of the country you are in. At least to me, people tend to be at least as interesting the sights to see.
