Gee... I'd be happy wandering around Norway for a month.

But as they say, your mileage may vary.

With a massive budget, though. I'd agree otherwise!

It depends on what you enjoy doing.

If you're into partying and boozing then you'll want to visit different
places to people who like museums and galleries and from people who like
open countryside and from people who like wandering around castles.

I've seen things you people wouldn't believe.
Barbeques on fire by the chalets past the castle headland
I watched the gift shops glitter in the darkness off the Newborough gate
All these moments will be lost in time, like icecream on the beach
Time for tea.

It's Brugge or Bruges - not both!

If you've never been to Europe before, have general interests, and are
traveling in the spring, summer, or fall:

London, Paris, Provence, the Swiss Alps, Venice, Tuscany, and Rome.

II would add one night from Paris to Saint Malo - Mont Saint Michel.

You could add many other places some Scottland -Edinburgh-, Eire
-Killarny-, some scandinavia, some Germany -Muenchen Wolfenbuettel,
Rhein thal-, some Spain -Santiago de Compostela Caceres-, Portugal
-Lisbon-, Prag, Romania -painted monasteries-

Too many possibilities, you will have to be selective
Four weeks is quite a long time just visiting. Maybe after 15 or 18 days
you will be fed up packing, unpacking, taking train, visiting,
restaurant, etc. You could make a week long break with a different
activity : Beach resort, golf, waterway cruise -france, Eire-, moutain
hiking, Thalassotherapy, music festival, country dances course, cooking
lessons, oenology.

There are huge numbers of other rewarding destinations in Europe. I
just wanted to give the most general itinerary that:

-was doable in 4 weeks
-includes places that were close enough that you could go from one to
another in a reasonable time without flying
-included many of the greatest highlights of Europe.

I could just as easily add any of the following in place of some of
those: the Greek Islands, Andalucia, Edinburgh, Barcelona, Florence,
Vienna, Berlin, Prague, Amsterdam, or St. Petersburg.
