About this trip
Four cities in nine days: Paris, Zurich, Venice and Rome, covering a lot of ground from French boulevards to the Colosseum. It's built as an easy-paced introduction to each city rather than a deep dive into any one of them.
You'll get time to wander Paris's streets and see the Eiffel Tower, take in Zurich's lakeside setting with the Alps as a backdrop, walk Venice's canal paths, and finish in Rome among its ancient sites and Vatican City.
Suits travellers who want a taster of several major European cities on one trip, including families and groups travelling together over Christmas or New Year.
What you'll do
- See the Eiffel Tower and wander Paris's boulevards
- Take in Zurich's Old Town with Alpine views over the lake
- Walk Venice's canals and quieter backstreet alleyways
- Visit the Colosseum in Rome
- See Vatican City and its art
- Four cities in nine days means a new base every couple of nights — better for those who like variety over settling in
- Partially guided, so some time in each city is yours to explore independently
- Rated easy, making it workable for families and mixed-ability groups

Your free day in Paris
Landing early, staying on, or filling free time? The best-rated day experiences in Paris — you book on Viator (we may earn a commission).
Worth it if you want guided structure without group-tour crowds and prefer trains to planes. Think twice if you need predictable, rigid schedules.
- Leisurely breakfasts and few early starts mean you're not rushed out of bed daily.
- Daily messages with meeting points, train times, and transfers feel like having a personal travel assistant.
- Train delays happen; one Paris departure ran behind schedule, requiring last-minute pickup adjustments.
- Swiss Alps excursions, particularly Mount Pilatus, genuinely stand out as trip highlights.
