If you’re looking for an in-depth Western Europe travel experience, this vacation is ideal with 2-night stays in London, Paris, Lucerne, Munich, Germany’s Rhineland, and Amsterdam. Begin with guided sightseeing in London and visits to St. Paul’s Cathedral and the Changing of the Guard (if held). Next, a fast Eurostar train whisks you to Paris for a welcome dinner with wine at a fine restaurant. Get a bird’s-eye view of the city from the second floor of the Eiffel Tower and take in the major landmarks on a guided sightseeing tour. On to Lucerne for a guided walking tour that features the Lion Monument and Chapel Bridge, then stop in the Principality of Liechtenstein and in Innsbruck to see the opulent Golden Roof. In charming Munich, sightseeing with a Local Guide shows off the Olympic Stadium, Nymphenburg Palace, Marienplatz, and the gothic Frauenkirche. Pause along the Romantic Road in Rothenburg before enjoying a Rhine River cruise and Riesling wine tasting. Continue to Cologne’s twin-spired gothic cathedral and to Amsterdam for guided sightseeing, a scenic canal cruise, and a visit to a major diamond center. Extend your tour with the Oberammergau Passion Play (stay two nights in Oberammergau instead of Munich and includes the Passion Play and an orientation instead of guided sightseeing in Munich. In Oberammergau, your hotel is the Böld (F); no singles or triples available; tour members will be asked to share). Your extension to London by Eurostar train continues to Brussels for an orientation before boarding the Eurostar train to London, and includes one night in London.
