See some of Europe's most famous cities and picturesque towns. Begin in Amsterdam with guided sightseeing, a canal cruise, and a visit to a major diamond center. Heading southeast, enter Germany, pausing in magnificent Cologne to visit its twin-spired gothic cathedral. Next, cruise down the Rhine past lush vineyards and castle-dotted river banks to beautiful Heidelberg and medieval Rothenburg. Spend two nights in Bavarian Munich, then off to King Ludwig's fairytale Neuschwanstein Castle and the Passion Play village of Oberammergau. Travel through the majestic Alps via Innsbruck to Venice, where a guided walking tour includes St. Mark's Basilica, Doges' Palace, and the Bridge of Sighs. Stop in Italian-speaking Lugano before arriving in Lucerne to admire its Lion Monument and Chapel Bridge. Spend a night in Montreux, and in Lausanne, board the high-speed TGV train to Paris. Guided sightseeing in the “City of Light” features Notre Dame Cathedral, the Arc de Triomphe, Champs-Élysées, and a bird's-eye view of the city from the second floor of the Eiffel Tower.
