I have never flown a tail dragger, so can't really comment on that side.
However one advantage of learning on a cessna or piper is that if you go to hire a plane while on holidays, you will be much more likely to be able to hire something that you will be very fimiliar with. Therefore your checkout time will be shorter, and you'll feel more comfortable flying it.
I don't know if that's relevant to you, but something to think about. Especially if your flying budget is limited.
