Any websites you recommend? |

Having just come back a month ago, I'd concur with Sasha. The trains aren't really the cheapest and *best* option. Night busses save you the most time and money. Also, considering your schedule, I'd cut out one city, and add an extra day to others. You will lose a lot of time in travel, and will not get enough time in these places.
BTW, just out of curiosity, how come so long in Sofia? |
It looks like I will cut Paris out of my trip and spend more days in the other countries...
So far I'm thinking Vienna -> Basel -> Frankfurt (One night to party at Cacoon Club lol) -> Amsterdam -> Sofia -> Istanbul, Ankara (and the mediterrian cost Antalya, Bodrum etc...)
I have family in Bulgaria :) also the parties are great in Sofia ;) |

We'll see maybe on the way...
I just kinda want a general idea of which method of transportation to use. I'm sure my cousins living in Vienna will be very resourcefull. Who knows, might end up driving... |

Do it. Paris is a waste of a city. It's beautiful, but overhyped, there are too many tourists, and the locals are some of the rudest people you'll ever have the displeasure of coming in contact with. |

Well to be honest the only reason I'd wanna go to Paris is to go see the Eiffel Tower. Otherwise meh...
Which doesn't make me upset... it just mean now I will have time to visit Vondersex in Amsterdam LOL! |

there are discount carriers that operate all throughout Europe. Seeing as how you're traveling through parts of Central Europe, you might wanna check out http://www.skyeurope.com/en/
Other than that, a great travel resource I've always found is www.bootsnall.com , they've got one of the best travel forums on the net with tons of resources for all the stuff you're looking for.

ugh. i'm shuddering thinking about the one night bus i took to edinburgh. 8 hours of sheer hell. plus, by the time you get to your destination you're so tired cos you haven't slept at all.
i'd look into flights personally.
again, with the parisians being rude - i really don't get it? i thought they were fine. although i guess i spoke "french" (ie: made a valiant effort but probably sounded ridiculous) with them, and was coming from italy where i thought everyone was beyond rude. the french were like a breath of fresh air! :p |
