(www.yourtour.com) helps you craft ideal itineraries.

What's hot: Getting a day-by-day itinerary that you can edit helps take the guesswork out of a tour. Use the map and click on the region(s) you're interested in, pick travel dates, and specify one way or round trip. Then choose from long lists of smaller destinations, hotels, and activities - museums, small port towns, winter activities, and great views. Click "Rebuild my tour" to see what your "personal travel agent" recommends. The price listings made the slow load time worth the wait.

What's not: Only French itineraries are offered, though more countries are promised. The process worked better on a PC than on a Mac.
