Start London
The adventure begins. We'll take a London walking tour to see all the spectacular sights this city has to offer then get to know each other over a three-course dinner.
London
Good morning London! How you spend your day is up to you - check out eerily lifelike celebrity waxworks at world famous Madame Tussauds, opt to see the skyline from a peerless perspective on the London Eye, get spooked out at the London Dungeon and more. Then this evening’s activity… yup, we’ll have the option to join an East End food walking tour – sampling as much international cuisine as we can muster.
London to Paris
Ta-ra, Thames. Time to hop on the Eurostar to Paris – after our buffet breakfast of course!
An iconic train journey later, and we're in Paris. With no time to waste, you’ll visit a Perfumery, where you’ll take a look around and even have the chance to craft a signature scent of your own. We'll then get acquainted with the city's 'ooh la la' worthy sites with a free afternoon to see the icons and maybe check out one of Paris's coolest neighbourhoods, Montmartre or Le Marais, close to our hotel.
Paris
Cuisine and cabaret day. We'll start this morning with an optional patisserie walking tour, winding our way around the cutest cafes in Paris, sampling dreamy pastries as we go. Afterwards, you’ve got all day to explore (and check out everything you missed yesterday). Tonight, it's off to a Paris cabaret show, with dinner and champagne to really switch on the sophistication.
Paris to Amsterdam
Another day, another incredible European city...
Dam That’s Preddy. Welcome to Amsterdam! In the evening, we'll head to Foodhallen to sample eclectic bars, live music and art exhibitions, not to mention some of the best food in Europe.
Amsterdam
Rise and shine! First up, we’ll take to the canals for a truly unique boat tour. We’ll see Amsterdam through the eyes of refugees – hearing their stories as we gawk at the splendid views, you’re guaranteed to step off the boat with a whole new perspective on life. The rest of the day is all about exploration – from Rijksmuseum to the Heineken Factory. This evening, opt to get an exclusive entry pass to the A'Dam Tower and Swing, skipping the queues to enjoy epic views over the sprawling city below. Afterwards the night is yours to explore this vibrant city and experience its legendary nightlife.
Amsterdam to Berlin
You've been a blast, Amsterdam, but today we're making tracks for our next adventure.Hello Berlin! We'll waste no time in checking out the cutting-edge culinary scene, both vegan and carnivorous! After that, the evening is yours to explore the city's world-famous nightlife. The buzzing scene here is a joyous tribute to German reunification, and since the fall of the Berlin Wall the city has staked its claim as the techno capital of the world. Please Note: The 31-Aug departure of this trip will be the very first one to include an exciting new overnight train from Amsterdam to Berlin. Rather than spending Day 7 on the train, you'll spend a whole extra day exploring Amsterdam! In the evening, we'll hop onboard the overnight train. Think couchette bunk beds, comfy outfits and crazy laughter with your Contiki crew. The facilities might be basic (with communal no-shower bathrooms), but just imagine everything you could do with some extra time in the sensational city of Amsterdam. In the morning, we'll arrive in another wonderful European capital - Berlin!
Berlin
2 walking tours today. This morning, take a historical walking tour, including a visit to the site of Hitler's bunker. This evening, you’ll have the chance to explore Berlin's oh-so-historical (and oh-so-hipster) Kreuzberg district and finish off with dinner.
End Berlin
Our trip ends in Berlin today. After giving us art, culture, eye-widening experiences and incredible food, it’s safe to say Europe has stolen our hearts, and we can’t wait to come back soon.
