Well, finally we will go to Europe, basically to Spain, France, England and Italy.

 

Tips/recomendations of places to visit or things to do?

 

Basque Country! I only was on the French part of the region (except for San Sebastian), but I loved it, love that the mountains and the sea "meet". Brittany is another beautiful region (well, mostly its coasts), as well as Alsace and of course Provence and its little gorgeous villages  but I'm not really helping because they are all far away from each other 

There are so many things to see that it's impossible to choose

Florence is absolutely magnificent. Sadly I didn't get to enjoy it fully as I was there on a school trip where most others didn't quite find the history and architecture as exiting as me.

Four days is more than enough for London. You may be able to take the bus tour.. however, it's a must to ride the London Eye, and the river cruise (you can book them together). There are other associated attractions, but I am not sure they are very nice. The bus tour should give you an idea about the other important points, but I would say "British museum", "national gallery museum", "St. Paul's Cathedral", and Parliament square leading to Trafalgar square and passing by Downing Street where the prime minister resides. Some people are interested in Hyde Park and Buckingham Palace, so please ask your hotel about the time of the change of guards.. that's the nicest thing about them.. When are you coming (dates)?!!!
