For planning to Europe, it really depends on what u are looking for.
I.e. your question of when is the best time to visit europe, i think i can say each season has their own uniqueness. But of course, the main difference of travelling during winter and summer is the load of luggage u will be togging around! Alot of people use to say summer is the best time to travel to europe, as the weather is warm and sunny, and you don't need to bring too many winter clothes. I personally think this will be a good time to travel if u plan to go on backpacking.
For me, i went for my honeymoon in Switzerland in year 2008 during winter as i really wanted to feel the Swiss Alps. I followed tour, hence togging around with those heavy winter clothings is still not much of a pain.
And this year, i am planning a trip to Eastern Europe during June, which will be summer by then. The tour will be covering Germany, Czech Rep., Austria, Hungary, Slovakia and Poland in 12 days. I will be joining the Contiki Tour. The only travel agency in Malaysia arranging for Contiki Tour is Holiday Tours. Hubby is liasing with them on this, we will make booking once got all the info from them.
Contiki offers 3 different types of accomodation suiting to your need - 1.Camping (bring own sleeping bag and camp at their selected sites, which is also the cheapest), Concept (you get to stay in chalets-the mid range) and Timeout (you get to stay in hotel).
Check out their website: www.contiki.com for more details. They will list out all the tours in different continent, duration, tour cost (varies depending on the season you go), itinerary, departure dates and all information you wish to know in their web. Fyi, the tour cost posted in their web does not include your airfare. If you plan to go on a contiki tour, call up Holiday Tours and give them the tour code that you wanted to follow (it's in their website) and your preferred date of departure. They will come back with you on the details.
The best part of joining Contiki is u get to travel together with travellers from around the world, all aged between 18-35 only. Its a totally different kind of experience.
Hope this could offer you some help, happy planning! ^^
