Exclamation Order Of Places HELP!!!!

Hey Guys,
We are planning on purchasing the eurorail passes and need to know what you believe the best order is. We have our main 4-5 places chosen but in the order you chose for us to take you can also include places in which we can stop mid-voyage if that makes any sense.
Anyways we want to start at London for a bit then train to Paris, France. and then

-Prague, Czech Republic
-Barcelona, Spain
-(Rome Venice) Italy
-Amsterdam, Netherlands
-Greece

We are thinking a 25 day trip. Starting in London and ending in ________ .
We really want 4-5 days in each place and 1 day in amsterdam.

PLEASE HELP!!!!!
Thanks so much
Matt

That's a good start, but you also have to take not on where you're going in each place..

If those are the only places you're going you might be better off with cheap flights. By train Prague to Rome is about 18 hours, Rome to Barcelona is over 24 hours. Use a site like http://www.skyscanner.net/ to see what the flights are like instead.

Depends when you are planning on going but If you really want to see the area by train then i would recomend going from london to amsterdam then heading down to paris, barcelona then stoping in at Nice or Florence before rome then heading down to bari to take a ferry to greece, then head back the same way but stop in venice on your way to prague(which is not on a eurail pass)
its the Euro cup this summer so switzerland and austria will be wild and you will have a few good places to stay along the way to prague
good luck
