Has anybody taken Globus's scenic delights before? We have chosen this less on-the-go tour because I am four and half months pregnant.

According to the book "Europe for Dummies", European hotels don't have laundry rooms and the laundry services can be expensive. However, after doing a little search online, I found that most hotels we are staying in are quite decent, Marriot and Hilton and other 4* hotels.

Lastly, how should we dress for this trip? I am not quite sure how's the weather in Europe right now. We are in Texas and we are wearing shorts and T-shirts already. But the tour guide booklet says to wear something more conservative.

Thanks by the way

When are you going? Summers in Europe are OK. Check cnn.com for weather. As for laundry service.. ..you can try to find a local laundromat and it'll be cheaper than the hotel laundry service. It's OK to wear shorts and tank tops. Europe isn't like the Middle East or some other Asian countries in terms of clothing. However, if you are planning a stop at the Vatican you have to wear a skirt.

We are leaving this Sunday, can hardly wait

We don't want to take too much stuff with us, therefore we will need to do laundry at least once during the trip.

No, we are going to Vatican. But I'm bringing a few skirts just in case.

Many thanks!!

Any update on how your trip was? I'll be taking the same one in Sept. and would like to hear what you thought.

How about the Best of Italy and France in September?
