Day-by-Day Itinerary

7 days through your journey

Day 1

Arrive Amsterdam

Start your unforgettable European adventure in Amsterdam. If you can tear your eyes from its scenic canals, you'll be staring at the city's teetering gabled homes that proclaim their birthyear with pride on their colorful facades. There's no better way to immerse yourself fully in Amsterdam's gezelligheid than taking an optional canal cruise in a glass-topped boat this evening.
Day 2

Amsterdam – Cologne – Rhine Cruise – Rhine Valley

From Amsterdam’s leafy canals to the towering spires of Cologne, your morning will be jam-packed with sights you’ll want to capture on camera as you head east into the lush landscapes of Germany. View the imposing Gothic Cologne Cathedral, then head to Boppard, where you’ll board a river cruise down the Rhine. Pass storybook villages, terraced vineyards and medieval castles where feuding lords must have surveyed their lands once upon a time. Watch the soul-stirring scenery of the Rhine Valley unfold as you kick back and watch the world go by. Arrive later at your hotel where you’ll join your travel companions for dinner.
Day 3

Rhine Valley – Black Forest – Rhine Falls – Lucerne Region

Straight out of a Brothers Grimm fairy tale, Germany’s Black Forest is the perfect backdrop for this morning’s scenic drive. You’ll see why its enchanting landscapes have inspired myths and fables throughout the centuries before crossing into Switzerland. A quick stop in Schaffhausen means there’s time to witness the cascading waters of the Rhine Falls, Europe’s biggest waterfall, before you arrive in the scenic region of Lake Lucerne.
Day 4

Lucerne orientation and free time

Join your Travel Director for an orientation through the Old Town to view the ancient Chapel Bridge and Lion Monument. Hear the story of the mournful lion hewn from rock to commemorate the sacrifice of the Swiss Guards who died defending Louis XVI during the French Revolution. You’ll then have the full day to discover why Lucerne earned its place on the 'Grand Tour' of Europe. You could choose to ascend to the alpine heavens, joining an optional scenic cruise across Lake Lucerne, then travel by railway and cable car into the mountains for exhilarating views. This evening, consider a Choice Experience to a Swiss folklore show which will highlight many Swiss traditions including yodelling and alpine horn playing.
Day 5

Lucerne Region – Paris

Enjoy a brief second encounter with the Rhine River when you head north, passing Basel en route to France. Admire the scenic views of the Burgundy wine region that follow your journey north to the French capital. Get a head start on your sightseeing and delve into Paris’ grand past, dynamic present and exciting future on your own this evening. Why not join a Choice Experience featuring a scenic river cruise and a drive through this glamorous city?
Day 6

Paris sightseeing and free time

Embrace elegance today with a full day to get under the skin of the City of Lights. Your Travel Director will deliver an excellent introduction during your sightseeing tour which includes views of the Arc de Triomphe, Eiffel Tower and Champs-Élysées. There’s time to see the sights on your own this afternoon. You could choose to hit the shops or tread in the footsteps of Picasso and Dalí in Montmartre, exploring its maze of streets and Artists' Square. Tonight, the frills and flounces of the can-can girls at a cabaret promise an entertaining evening should you wish to join this Choice Experience.
Day 7

Depart Paris

After breakfast, say farewell to your fellow travelers at the end of your holiday.
