Europe Trip

The trip the husband and me has been talking about it since the day we got hitched. I told him i didn't want a wedding dinner but i need to have a honey moon trip to Europe and finally after 2 years we are going to Europe this summer.
Went Natas  last week to book my Europe trip. Give up the idea of F and E when i saw Ee Mian's F and E bill turned out to be 10k for 2 pax just for accommodation, air ticket and food. Negotiate around and we sign up with most valued for money tour agent Five Star who charge us $3828/pax for a 16days trip where other agency are marking their 16days at over 5k. 

Other fee include optional tour fee $400, tour guide fee at $85/pax and insurance $80/pax. It is already $230 for the tram up the mountain in Interlake Switzerland  and we checked around, no agency will include this in their package so this is a payable sum for every tour group.
