18 Days Trip to Europe: Full Itenary and Budget


Seperti yang dijanjikan, cik Z kongsikan disini Full Itenary and Budget Series untuk trip kami ke Eropah selama 18 hari iaitu dari 1 Jun - 18 Jun 2013. Lama kan. Sebenarnya hanya 14 hari penuh je pun yang betul2 boleh dianggap sebagai trip kerana kebanyakan masa di Istanbul dihabiskan untuk menghadiri conference.  Route kami ialah KL-Istanbul-London-Paris-Milan-Rome-Athens-Istanbul-KL. Walaupun trip kali ini dirancang dengan agak tergesa2, tapi Alhamdulillah bolehlah dikatakan segalanya berjalan lancar dan mengikut perancangan dan memberi kepuasan serta pengalaman yang banyak buat kami. Tolak ketepi pengalaman hilang duit dan passport di Paris, rasa macam tak percaya kami dah pun berjaya menghabiskan perjalanan 18 hari merentas 5 negara yang sesungguhnya sangat memenatkan dan menguji kesabaran. 

Yang kelakarnya masa travel selalu je teringatkan makanan Malaysia yang sedap2 tapi bila dah balik hilang plak rasa teringin tu. Almaklumlah masa kat sana makanan yang paling kerap kami jumpa ialah kebab, roti, pizza, pasta dan chips. Kebanyakannya kering dan tak de sos. Nasib juga ada bawa paket2 kecil sos dari Malaysia. Kami gunakannya sejimat yang mungkin. Walaupun kami ada juga bawa Maggi dan 3in1 drinks dari Malaysia, tapi tak semua hostel yang kami tinggal ada menyediakan air panas/kettle. 

Antara cabaran bercuti di Eropah semasa awal musim Summer/panas ialah keadan cuacanya yang tak menentu. Mujurlah kami dah bersedia dengan cardigan dan jaket sederhana tebal. Di Istanbul cuaca agak sejuk (ada 1 hari yang suhunya turun bawah 20 degree) dan hujan serta panas silih berganti. Di London, suhunya lebih rendah berbanding Istanbul, memang sejuk menggigil mujur juga hujan tak turun. Di Paris, hari pertama sampai matahari panas memancar terasa bagaikan berada di Malaysia. Tak semena-mena malam hari yang sama hujan turun lebat berpanjangan hingga hari esoknya menyebabkan suhu turun mendadak malah lebih sejuk berbanding London. Sejuk terasa hingga ke tulang.  Di Italy dan Athens pula, cuaca sangat panas sampaikan nak ambik gambar pun muka berkeriut2 dan bila balik Malaysia muka sunburn.

Banyak perkara baru yang cik Z belajar sepanjang perjalanan ini. Antaranya:

1. Semua negara di bawah kesatuan Eropah dianggap satu negara. Jadinya passport kita hanya akan dicop di negara pertama yang kita sampai dan juga di negara terakhir yang kita keluar.

2. Kalau kita beli barang yang dibolehkan mendapat VAT refund, kita hanya boleh dapatkan refund tersebut di negara eropah terakhir yang kita singgah. Prosesnya ialah masa sebelum check in pergi ke kaunter customs untuk ambil cop lepastu singgahlah kat mana2 kaunter refund points yang disediakan seperti Global Blue. Nanti dia akan bagi kita cash refund. Kalau tak de, cari peti surat warna kuning dan masukkan borang yang telah dicop kedalam peti surat. Lagi satu refund yang kita akan dapat sebenarnya tidaklah sebayak % yang dinyatakan.

3. Selama ni cik Z tak pernah perasan yang kalau kita duduk dalam flight yang kerusinya disebelah emergency exit rupa2nya kita tak dibenarkan letak apa2 barang/beg kat bawah kaki. Dan bila kita naik Easy Jet diorang akan cek sebelum boarding sesiapa yang duduk kat seat bahagian tersebut akan diminta letak semua barang dalam 1 beg sahaja lepastu wajib letak kat atas rak.

4. Kalau hilang passport, perkara pertama kena buat ialah laporan polis dahulu barulah ke embassy. Lepas ni kalau nak keluar negara adalah lebih baik kalau kita bersedia dengan photocopy passport serta alamat embassy.

5. Air yang dijual di vending machine adalah berkali2 lebih murah berbanding di kedai. Contohnya air mineral di vending machine harganya 0.4 Euro tapi kat kedai 1.8 Euro.

6. Kalau travel ke Eropah lebih baiklah bawa beg yang ringan je ataupun back pack bagi memudahkan kita bergerak di stesen2 keretapi/metro yang kebayakannya tak de lift atau eskalator.

7. Nak cari toilet? Cari WC tapi jangan lupa bawa botol kosong sekali sebab semua toilet tak de paip.

8. Pakailah kasut yang sesuai seperti sport shoes atau sneakers. Sandle ok juga tapi bukanlah kat tempat2 yang banyak tangga atau kena jalan sepanjang hari seperti Venice kalau tak mahu tapak kaki meletup macam cik Z. Hilang mood nak berjalan. 

9. Sistem pengangkutan di Italy sangat efisian. Kalau nak travel within cities lebih baik gunakan ItaliaRail berbanding kapalterbang. Tempat duduknya lebih luas serta selesa dan kita boleh buka laptop sepanjang perjalanan. Tapi jangan lupa bawa makanan ya nanti lapar.

10. Kalau nak ke Venice janganlah duduk di Mestre untuk jimatkan kos, tak de apa pun kat situ. Nak cari makan pun susah.


Rasa2nya ada lagi pengalaman baru yang lain tapi biasalakan kalau nak tulis tu tetiba semuanya lupa. Seterusnya bolehlah tengok kat bawah ni itenary kami sepanjang 18 hari. Semua hostel yang kami tinggal (kecuali Mestre, Venice) dekat dengan main attraction dan punya kemudahan yang ok dan berpatutan dengan bayaran yang dikenakan. Untuk budget pula cik Z dah summarizekannya dan letakkan budget minimum yang diperlukan jika kita memilih untuk tinggal di private room for 2 person di setiap hostel. Budget minimum ini juga tidak mengambil kira jika anda teringin nak shopping bags atau lain2 barangan berjenama mbuatan Eropah.

  1. Salam perkenalan...

    1. salam, freedom hostel tu ok kalau diambil kira location yg sangat dekat dgn termini station. Pastu breakfast pun disediakan + wifi pun ada. Cuma biliknya sempit sikit compare to toilet yg agak besar. tapi tak apa pun sebab bukan duduk sanagt kat bilik kan. Kalau malam2 nak surf internet rasa terkurung kat bilik blh duduk kat ruang tamu yg disediakan setiap aras.

      kalau beli barang nanti diorg tanya nak tax refund tak. Ataupun tanya je siap2 ada vat tak. Vat tu %nya berbeza ikut brand. Tempat nak collect refund pun beza2. nanti dia bagi sampul surat siap2 kalu tak de kaunter yg dicari pos je kat airport.

  4. salam awak. Thank you so much for sharing this. Nak tanya, tau x tour arrangement yg affordable kat Paris? Saya nak pergi sana dgn parents tapi diorang dah berumur. Takut x larat nak hop on hop off + jalan jauh jauh :( <3 ada suggestion penginapan?

    ReplyDelete
    Replies
    1. Tour arrangement memang saya tak survey langsung. Tapi hop on hop off memang saya fully recomended. Setiap stop yg ada tu memang tak jauh dengan attraction yg ada disenaraikan. Malah ada yg turun2 bas jer terus nampak attraction yg kita nak pergi. Saya perhatikan ramai juga warga tua yg naik bas ni. Kalau bawak parent mungkin kena cari mana2 hotel yg dekat dgn attraction, cuma kosnya confirm la lebih.

  6. Salam, thanks for sharing this. It was really useful for first timer, indeed.

    I planned to travel to Europe in early August 2014. Planned trip is around 14day or so. Your previous travel itinerary shall be our main guidelines.

    Would appreciate if you could share with us on the followings:

    1. Any visa requirements to enter any European countries or other relevant/related legal documents that might be required.

    2. Travel expenses. Your best recommended that I should carry with me. Cash, Credit Cards, Travelers Cheque etc..

    3. Ada tak Immunization requirement to travel to Europe or what would you recommended?

    Regards

    1. Salam, I'm happy to know that I could help someone like you to plan and start your own trip to Europe. For better ideas and tips, I recommend you to read all entry under tagname Europe in this blog. Regarding your questions:

      1. No visa needed for Malaysian like us to enter any European countries.

      2. Travel expenses: Bring enough cash for pocket money, eat/dine, accommodation, transportation, entrance fees, and sourviners cost. Makesure to put aside a little bit for emergency case. Some hostel prefer cash than credit card. Credit cards can be used to buy branded item like lv or burberry.

      3. No immunization requirement needed. However I recommend you to bring panadol and "minyak angin".

      Good luck on your trip.

    ReplyDelete
    Replies
    1. Mmg boleh je bawa cash sbb most tempat pun kita kn guna cash. Cuma nak book hotel tu la payah sikit. Kalau pakai booking.com x perlu bayar dulu tapi x sure maklumat pnbyaran tu blh atau x kita guna debit card. Tapi yg hoho bus tu x perlu nak book pun. Naik dan byar masa naik guna euro cash.

    1. Untuk bilik try search di hostel world or booking.com. Untuk 5 org tak sure ada ke tak tapi utk bertiga confirm ada. So mungkin boleh book two room.

      Tube di london sangat senang nak guna. Cuma kat paris metronya agak crowded dan nak beli tiket payah sikit (more to language barrier).
