I agree #1 In the Sea! Italy is the country in the ENTIRE WORLD that has the MOST UNESCO World Heritage Site!

Lovely country.

Same with Greece and Spain

I'm greek but I think Italy is the best country! Italy Greece AND Spain are the most beautiful countries in Europe!

The best country I've ever been. It is not only for the beautiful sceneries but because of nice the people there are. There is something about Greece that makes me feel home that I have never experienced in any other country.

It was supposed to be the country where advanced technology is invented during the Ancient Greek era.

The best country in the world. For some reason it feels like home

Greece is by far the best but also Spain and Italy

3 France France, officially the French Republic, is a sovereign state comprising territory in western Europe and several overseas regions and territories. The European part of France, called metropolitan France, extends from the Mediterranean Sea to the English Channel and the North Sea, and from the Rhine to the Atlantic Ocean. France spans 675,000 km2 (251,000 mi2) and has a total population of 67 million (data from 2017). ...read more.

France is not considered as a Mediterranean country, France has 44,0000 km of coast, only South of Metropolitan France (Mainland) and the beautiful Corsica are Mediterranean parts of France. Atlantic Ocean (Mainland, Caribbean islands, Guyana..), Pacific Ocean (Polynesia, Noumea), Indian Ocean (reunion, Mayotte)... France is a large and great country, but not only as Mediterranean country.

France is really beautiful and we had the chance to visit Corsica that we believe the most beautiful Mediterranean island with Balearic Islands in Spain.

Well I just like this country

4 Spain Spain, or the Kingdom of Spain, is a country in southwestern Europe with parts of territory in the Atlantic Ocean and across the Mediterranean Sea. The largest part of Spain is situated on the Iberian Peninsula; its territory also includes the Canary Islands in the Atlantic Ocean, the Balearic Islands in the Mediterranean Sea, the autonomous cities of Ceuta and Melilla, and several minor overseas territories also scattered along the Moroccan coast of the Alboran Sea. The country's mainland is bordered to the south by Gibraltar; to the south and east by the Mediterranean Sea; to the north by France, Andorra and the Bay of Biscay; and to the west by Portugal and the Atlantic Ocean.

By far better than Italy and Greece because we have also a long Atlantic Ocean front in North West and South West and the famous Canaries or Canary Islands but Canarias for its real name. And we are the first touristic country in the world.

Spain is fantstic weather is great places are great its the easy winner

By far the best!

Unfortunately most people who go to Egypt just go to specific touristic places and they miss the whole point of going to Egypt. Egypt is a country to explore, it is a country where so many cultures are blended in one place. Walking on the streets of Cairo or Alexandria and having a meal in one of the local restaurants and dinners and interacting with the locals is simply an amazing experience that everyone must try at least twice.

Went there once - it was the best. You have everything you want when visiting a country, and you don't do much traveling since it's very small. Sarajevo is culturally great, there are churches and mosques next to each other. Some fantastic buildings there too.
