Hail, Britannia! – Two Days in
London
The city of
Shakespeare and Queen Victoria, Charles Dickens and Winston Churchill, London is rich in history, but it’s also a cosmopolitan capital on the cutting edge of culture. We begin our European adventure in this remarkable city with a tour of London’s highlights, including Buckingham Palace, St. Paul’s Cathedral, Trafalgar Square and Tower Bridge. Each stop on your tour is like a step back in time!

Once you’ve gotten the lay of the land in this vibrant city, you’re free to explore on your own and discover the charm and style that makes
London a top destination of travelers worldwide. Or if you crave a bit of the royal touch, join us for an optional tour of the Queen’s residence at Windsor Castle, a stately structure built in the 11th century.

Immerse Yourself in the City of
Light
From
London, hop aboard the Eurostar for a high-speed train ride under the English Channel and into the French countryside. Everywhere you look, you’ll see picturesque tableaux familiar from art, history and film, from the colossal Arc de Triomphe to the gothic arches and glorious stained glass windows of the Cathedral of Notre Dame.

All of
Paris is yours to explore! Stroll down the Champs-Elysees and browse the many stylish shops that line this famous avenue, or take a break in a sidewalk café for a cup of creamy café au lait and a pastry. Travelers with a taste for luxury can join the guide for an optional tour of the opulent Palace of Versailles, which served as the royal residence for France’s kings and queens for more than a century.

Exploring the Continent:
Belgium, The Netherlands, and Germany
You will board our high-speed Thalys train and head north to
Belgium. The first stop is Brussels, the administrative center of the European Union, where you will have a panoramic tour of the beautiful boulevards and spacious squares of this gorgeous capital city.

From
Brussels, we move on to the quaint town of Valkenburg in The Netherlands. This scenic medieval town will serve as our home base as we explore the region over the next three days. View picturesque water mills and castle ruins, or relax with a steaming cup of coffee and a Limburg flan, a local delicacy. While in Valkenburg, you may also opt to tour Bruges, Belgium, a splendid medieval city known for its beauty. As you stroll the winding byways and gaze on the swans that drift on Bruges’ Minnewater (“Lake of Love”), you’ll sense fairy-tale magic in the air!

Your European vacation also includes a three country tour. A leisurely trip through the verdant
province of Limburg, also known as “Little Switzerland” and a stop at the ancient town of Maastrict. Founded more than 2000 years ago, it’s the oldest town in the region! We’ll also stop at the lovely German town of Monschau. An idyllic town in a wooded river valley, Monschau evokes its medieval past, from its pristinely preserved half-timbered architecture to its charming town square.

Old-World Glamour – Within Your Reach!
