Top Highlights

  • SeineTen days, three countries and four trains.
  • LouvreBoth are timed and both sell out.
  • VersaillesParis to Lucerne is about four and a half hours by rail, city centre to city centre, and the border is invisible.
  • Chapel BridgeThe Rotair rotates through 360 degrees as it climbs, which sounds like a gimmick and means everyone gets the view.
  • JungfraujochThe railway runs inside the Eiger for most of the climb and the station at the top is at 3,454 m, which is the highest in Europe.
  • Aletsch glacier
  • Grand CanalArriving in Venice by train puts you at the head of the Grand Canal with no road anywhere, which is the right way to arrive.
  • St Mark's BasilicaVenice takes about twenty million visitors a year into a city of fifty thousand residents.

Hotels were a step below what I expected for the price.

France done well. The itinerary had room to breathe. Hotels were clean and central, which saved a lot of time. Crew were professional without being stiff about it. Solid operator.

Good mix of the obvious things and a few places we'd never have found. Rooms were comfortable and the locations meant we could walk most evenings. The team read the group well and adjusted without making a thing of it. Solid operator.

Well paced over 10 days with enough free time to not feel herded. No complaints about any of the hotels — all of them well placed. Meals were good throughout and the vegetarian options weren't an afterthought. Would send friends their way.
