Hi Everyone,
I will be traveling to the "Central Europe" area from June 8 to around June 20th. My plan is to fly into Amsterdam and do a tour of hopefully- Amsterdam, Germany, Prague and possibly Austria or Switzerland. Do you think this is manageable in the timeframe and easy to do without a car?
I am traveling with my sister and we are on a budget (nothing too tight) but do not want to fly EVERYWHERE.
Additionally, within the places that I have listed, do you have any spots/cities that you think are necessary to stop? We are interested in hearing anyone's advice!
Thank you in advance!!

Also, I am willing to doctor up the itinerary a little if anyone as other countries to sub in! thanks!
You won't be able to see all of Germany, Austria, and Switzerland in that time so you need to choose destinations in each country.
I'm guessing that you have 13 days on the ground, not counting arrival and departure days.
Fly into Amsterdam
2 days - Amsterdam
1 day - travel to Berlin
3 days - Berlin
(optional 1 day trip to Potsdam)
1/2 day - travel to Dresden
2 days - Dresden
3 days - Prague
Fly home from Prague
Or you could see Amsterdam, Prague, and Vienna in that time.
You can take trains (buses) between all locations so no need for a car which would be a handicap in cities.
Why fly into Amsterdam if Central Europe is your goal?
Amsterdam 3 train to
Hannover 3
train to Leipsig 3 or Dresden
train to
Prague 4
Go home
