Ideas for Your Vacation

This eight-day itinerary will be a fast-paced, urban adventure focusing on iconic landmarks, finance, and fashion, best tackled by high-speed rail to maximize time in each city. I would allocate approximately 3 days for Paris, focusing on the essentials like the Eiffel Tower, Louvre, and a stroll through Montmartre; 2 days for Zurich, using the time to explore the picturesque Old Town (Altstadt), relax by Lake Zurich, and appreciate the city's reputation for luxury and efficiency; and 2 days for Milan, dedicating time to the magnificent Duomo, the upscale shopping Galleria Vittorio Emanuele II, and a visit to Leonardo da Vinci's The Last Supper (with advanced booking, of course), leaving one day for travel between cities and to/from the airport. The key to success will be efficient early morning train travel and prioritizing the must-see highlights in each location.

Itinerary

• Day 1: Departure from the US

Begin your European journey with an international flight from the United States to Paris, France — the City of Light. Sit back, relax, and prepare to immerse yourself in the beauty, history, and culture of Western Europe.

• Day 2: Arrival in Paris

Land in Paris and transfer to your hotel. Take some time to rest after your flight, or if you’re feeling energetic, enjoy a gentle stroll along the Seine or savor your first French pastry at a local café. As evening falls, admire the illuminated Eiffel Tower and enjoy a delightful Parisian dinner.

• Day 3: Discovering Paris

Spend the day exploring Paris’ most iconic landmarks. Visit the Louvre to see the Mona Lisa, marvel at the grandeur of Notre-Dame, and wander through Montmartre to the stunning Sacré-Cœur Basilica. In the evening, consider a scenic Seine River cruise or a romantic dinner near the Champs-Élysées.

• Day 4: Train to Zurich, Switzerland

After breakfast, board a comfortable direct train from Paris to Zurich — a scenic 4- to 6-hour journey through the French and Swiss countryside. Upon arrival, check into your hotel and enjoy a relaxed evening by Lake Zurich or explore the charming Old Town with its cobblestone streets and cafés.

• Day 5: Exploring Zurich

Begin your day with a stroll along Bahnhofstrasse, one of the world’s most elegant shopping streets. Visit the Swiss National Museum or take a short day trip to nearby Lucerne or Rhine Falls for a taste of Switzerland’s natural beauty. Savor authentic Swiss cuisine like fondue or raclette for dinner.

• Day 6: Journey to Milan, Italy

Depart Zurich in the morning and travel by Coach through the stunning Swiss Alps to Milan, Italy. Upon arrival, check into your hotel and explore the city center — from the magnificent Duomo Cathedral to the elegant Galleria Vittorio Emanuele II. Enjoy your first Italian dinner and perhaps a gelato to end the evening.

• Day 7: Discovering Milan

Dive deeper into Milan’s culture and style. Visit Leonardo da Vinci’s The Last Supper (advance booking recommended), stroll through Sforza Castle and Parco Sempione, and indulge in Milan’s famous fashion districts. If time allows, consider a half-day trip to picturesque Lake Como.

• Day 8: Farewell Europe

Check out of your hotel and transfer to Milan’s airport for your return flight to the United States. As you soar homeward, reflect on the memories of your journey — from the romance of Paris to the charm of Zurich and the elegance of Milan
