    Saw this, and thought I would give my two cents worth from the weekend traveling I did while at Georgia Tech Lorraine two summers ago (we hit 15 countries over the summer, but only 1-2 cities in each).

    London: The Eye was worth it.

    Barcelona: Found a wonderful market along the main drag, make sure to turn down a couple alleys (without getting mugged)

    Nice: Swimming can be a bad idea... especially if you miss the "everyone get in, the waves are picking up" notice...

    Rome: It's a little... different... but I suggest the Crypt of the Capuchian monks, by far one of my favorite experiences there: http://cbeckersblog.blogspot.com/2010/08/deaths-portal.html

    Interlaken: Went Paragliding -- it was wonderful -- also make sure to hike up near the town randomly, we found wild raspberries :-)

    Munich: Great Kebabs and beer

    Berlin: Mostly what I remember about Germany was the people, but we had fun escaping to Potsdam too.

    Paris: Well... the French aren't that friendly to tourists, but the sights are worth it.

    If you're still not set on these 100%, Vienna is worth the visit (and cheaper than most of these cities too) I made it out to Budapest... but that's probably a bit out of the way, haha
