I don't know. Should we? I think hotels would be better.

Camping would be fine with some hotels thrown in every 5 days or so.

I like the route, but would prefer hotels. Camping is also fine if we have hotels at least every 3-4 days.

Would be ideal if we could start early enough to finish by Aug 4 - need to be in San Diego for a yoga teacher training on the 6th! If we can do that, I'm all go! And I'm with Barry on the hotels every 3-4 days. A girl likes to shower and sleep in clean sheets! It's Europe, afterall. No need to forego all benefits of civilisation.

Hi there, I like the idea of this trip and love to be part of it! Since I know most of the itinerary from previous trips, I would love to part of the crew assisting, but also biking? Is this a possibility? Albert

Hi Albert, Sorry for the delay in responding but been to busy cycling in South America. We have just finished today and I noticed your comment. The answer is yes would very much appreciaate your help and assisatnce, assuming the trip gets off the gorund. So far it does not look good for this year.

I'll go in 2011 the Amber Route is offered in conjunction with this tour. Then you could go from St Petersburg to Lisbon.
