Which is partly the reason why her “Grand Tour” "City Breaks" and "British Weekend Jaunt" books are so useful. She has been fortunate to travel extensively in Europe and lived in Brittany, France during the mid 1980’s. Caroline currently lives in the North of England.She very much hopes you will enjoy her eBooks and have as much fun on your “Grand Tours” "City Breaks" and "British Weekend Jaunts" as she did on hers; and that her collector books help those starting out with their collections.

      Chapter 1 – Introduction

      If like me, you are an independent traveller who seeks adventure, adores culture, antiquities, history and getting value for money, you may find this short city explorer tour most enjoyable. This city tour is an excerpt from one of my longer European Grand Tour ebooks (Tour 6 - Liverpool, Berlin, St Petersburg, Riga & Stockholm) and I put the itinerary together for myself. I found that visiting a city for a short time gives me a taste of that city and helps me decide whether or not to return for a longer future stay. I find some Cities have the right feeling for me and I feel comfortable and at home in them, others I must admit, despite several visits, I cannot take to. You, I am sure, will experience this for yourself as you explore.

      I travelled alone on this tour, but there is no reason why couples, families or groups could not undertake and enjoy it, every bit as much as I did.

      You can make the tour as cheap or expensive as you wish by your own choice of accommodation, restaurants and methods of transport, although to be honest I found even budget accommodation and restaurants to be very expensive compared with the UK. To assist, as I guide, I have mentioned the accommodations and transport facilities I used, you of course are at liberty to use or amend these to suit your own tastes and requirements.

      You can tailor the tour to suit yourself by:

      - changing venues and incorporating ones that have particular interest to yourself

      - changing the number of days you spend in the city

      In order to maximise my time, I usually decide which venues I wish to visit before I go on holiday and group them due to their location and opening times. I usually leave a couple of hours free though each day to explore, shop or just chill out. You will find you will need to factor in chilling out time each day, particularly in large busy cities, to avoid culture overload and fatigue. I hope you find the tour to be fun and not too gruelling

      Please note however, I am a quick walker and tend to get round Museums and Galleries very quickly, particularly as I home in only on the items which I find of interest (I research where these are in the museum/gallery before I go to save time. Most websites have a map of their venues to enable you to
