Not my own, but I have been considering a trip this way.

Trung Phan: 17 thoughts from a trip to Munich, Prague, Budapest, Vienna and Dubrovnik

In July, I spent 3 weeks traveling through Europe with my wife and son.
We went to Munich, Prague, Budapest, Vienna and Dubrovnik.
It was our longest trip as a family and a nice break from the "kid is in school now, so we have to travel during the summer when everyone else does too, which means the prices are jacked up and everything is busy but what are you going to do" routine that we've settled into.

Curious if folks have feedback on this general itinerary. I'd look to do it in the summer.

I have experienced all except Budapest. In order of travel I would do Munich, Vienna, Budapest, and Prague.

Budapest is my favorite city in Europe. I recommend it. (Although I recommend all of the cities mentioned above. I'd rank Dubrovnik 5th because its tourist hell in the summer these days. It has gotten way too crowded since Game of Thrones. If it wasn't for that, it would be higher since its so damn cool.)


Vienna/Budapest/Prague and to a lesser extent Munich can be visited via train. You'd need to fly to Dubrovnik.

That is a fantastic itinerary…due to the tourist crowds just don't do it between June 1 - Sep 1 if you can help it. Anytime outside these dates the crowds will be cut in half and the hotel prices might be as well.
