European travel notes on

In July 2007, with his wife and children along with CITs sunset red tour to Europe Italy, Vatican, Austria, Switzerland, columns, and a tour of France, during which various experiences, exotic, lakes and mountains, impressive, due to the following, chat to text.

Which fix a little broken, if able to later with the group tourists a little help, you can be a useful by-products.

A, visa and preparation

Travel abroad, first and foremost is the visa.

I heard that European countries a considerable degree of difficulty of the visa, plus the pressure of time, so prepare to talk with a group outing. Consulting the China travel, China travel, China cyts tours, or even Caesar, several major travel agencies feel China travel consultants voice kind, responsible, and management. Particularly in a place called zhangjie Lady, business skill, job, enthusiasm, especially for our help. Tourism came back from a travel guide publications that miss this zhangjie is travel guide consulting business, known as the Deputy Head of consulting Department of visa specialist. Even so, we have a full beat dozens more consultation call, reply also confusing and contradictory, and travel guide online publication of visa processes and files repeatedly confirmed research before gradually completely understood the visa procedures and necessary documents. Later, in tours in the know, with several families with children are spending effort, than we do a relative of the notary is not required. Visible, the lesson is fairly small. Go to the six countries, Switzerland and the Schengen countries Italy bilateral visa, the visa restrictions and complex documents, not only cumbersome, and on the people almost insulted. Pain-cut hope relevant leading domestic and foreign VIP, you will be able to intervene so that Europe and the United States, to be flat to wait for my nation. Of course, the evolution of attitudes to various European countries, and people have to travel together to the countries of Europe in the name of smuggling of related rows. This person seems to Zhejiang, Fujian and wait a few more in the South. In addition, the travel agency will charge $/person of huge amounts of cash, as this person stranded no return of security deposit. It seems that even the Chinese people do not dare to believe my compatriots, let alone foreign. After nearly a month of busy preparing for the trip of a few days ago, both countries have a visa.

Two days before departure, the CITs 10 floor conference room, held prior to the presentation.

This tour has been fixed 39, full of people. The meeting issued travel schedule, and other related materials, and saw this time together with the Guide. This guide, 30 years old, body-fat, Zhang. After more than ten days of tourism in Europe, our tour packages, whether young or old, are referred to him for the Guide. Zhang guide describes relevant considerations for outing, and describes some of your own expense. The information sent in the travel guide, a trip by your own expense table, everyone around 300 euros. Zhang guide highlights the France of the Moulin Rouge, and even that's not at the Moulin Rouge, and is equal to the yanwu Paris's amazing words. At the same time, the Guide also describes several items table does not have a project in the sense that he personally recommended project. One of them is the tour finish after Austria's Salzburg, en Yan Sibulu g way around here, to Germany in Munich. In this way, not only in Italy, Vatican, Austria, Switzerland, columns, six countries, and one country, while also seeing Hitler who talks of the beer Museum, this statement, or the seductive. These optional items, along with the itinerary, there will be a detailed introduction, is better, the viewer's own trade-offs will not repeat them here. This sheet is imported, speaks not temperature do not fire, professional knowledge is rich, due diligence work best, easy-going patience, ten days, never saw him and members of the combustion, this in a somewhat hesitant in old (young), tours, particularly valuable.

Second, Helsinki and Rome

July 12, at 11 o'clock, the giant Airbus 340 vacated.

We rode the Finnair flights, the first of 052 flight Helsinki, then take fenhang of another aircraft, to get to Italy's capital Rome Leonardo da Vinci Airport. The guests on board the aircraft, the last part was almost as our tours. Tours of 39 people, about 20 people for 50-year-old, six children, remaining for young people. Most of the delegates come from Beijing, there are a handful of Shandong province, Northeast China and other places. More than ten days, everyone is busy sightseeing tour, to communicate with each other, but polite was built. Unfortunately, the regiment has taught a 3 week, and we have a 3 port community from Tsinghua University. Naturally, we became more time together as a group activity.

Fenhang's Airbus 340 is a dual channel, every row of 8 seats of wide-body aircraft.

By fenhang flight, there are two benefits that one can be in transit, halfway down for a walk, have a rest, and second, by the way glimpse of Finland, Helsinki. In theory, can also be said that the more a country. Thus, although non-direct shipping, are still satisfied. Of course, on the road need to charge a little time. In fact, this route only at 12 o'clock, Air China flights direct flight to Rome, later than an hour. The only annoying is that this lunch-Finnish flights on difficult to eat.

3 pm Helsinki time and a half minutes, the aircraft arrived at the Helsinki International Airport.

Before landing, looking down from the plane, is full of small lakes, trees, scenery, fascinating. Finland is the EU's Schengen countries, where the transfer, to carry out the formalities for entering the EU and for security. After the entry into the EU, then enter any one of the European Union, the Schengen countries, you won't have any immigration procedures and restrictions. Security doors, stand three Finland police, two men and a woman, his tall, face serious, ass hanging behind the very little pistols, gangster in the West. These three police close watched the queuing system security doors, from time to time, ask a person, body search carefully. Our tour group entry, the police, at a glance in a guide, called him, and search again. Somehow, watching fat picture GuideHands up for inspection, tour members are some want to laugh.

After entering security inspection is Helsinki airport long Aiport.

And other international airports, many on both sides of the Hall a variety of duty-free shops, smoking, alcohol, cosmetics and many different kinds of gifts. Large and small cafes, pubs filled with drink eat eating and drinking. From the terminal of the vaulted Hall on the outward, the airport is the dense birch trees. This makes the preliminary point that exotic feel. Our Kid hungry, in a coffee shop and bought a sandwich, a drink, spent 6 euro, close to 60 Yuan, this allows us to high European prices beginning to experience.

Local time: 4: 30, we took flight, taking off fenhang 211 to Italy's capital Rome.

This is a Boeing 737 aircraft, machines to remove our tour packages, most of the Europeans. Machine supply dinner, compared to flying from domestic flights are much better fenhang. Rome time 6 p.m. and a half minutes, the aircraft landed on time in Rome Leonardo da Vinci International Airport. Rome than Helsinki late an hour later than Beijing time 6 hours. At this point should be covered with the Beijing night 12 point, here is the sunset, the sun still, skylight bright. Collect the luggage and walk out of the airport, there is no formalities. Airport pickup is a black hair curl, writter of Italy driver, the car is a Volvo buses, spacious, bright, comfortable and clean. Know that this is the driver, the car to accompany our ten days, from Rome until France Paris, we are very satisfied. Car out of the airport, the highway, I do not know which direction to go over an hour, to a small hotel, the evening fade away. Long flight plus the difference in, everyone is tired. All unintentional he gu, get the key, find his room, wash after rush sleep.
