What is best - Hiring a Travel Plan or Doing all at your own?

Upvote:1

Depends on what you want to do. Your "holiday plan" sounds more like a guided tour to me where you just hang out with other tourists from your country in a foreign place and venture from one tourist hotspot to the next. I did that once once, and found it as exiting as "painting by numbers".

You will see and experience much more local culture if you make your own plans. Make a list of things you want to see, pinpoint them on a map and then decide on a route that takes you from place to place.

Your tour is for europe, you get around much better, faster and cheaper in a train rather than hiring a car. The train stations are usually right in the city center, with hotels nearby from where you can start exploring. Don't be scared to try your own things. :)
