This ebook is a BOX SET of 3 of my "Grand European Tours" travel guides & effectively gives you 3 tours for the price of 2 (if the tours had been purchased separately) :
Tour 4 – Paris & Châteaux, Venice, Rome, Sorrento & Amalfi Coast (16 Day Tour) - Of all the European Grand Tours this one is the most romantic visiting not only Paris & the Royal Châteaux of Versailles & Fontainebleau but unforgettable Venice & the breathtakingly beautiful Amalfi Coast & Bay of Naples. This Tour visits Paris, Venice (& the islands of Lido, Burano & Murano), Rome, Naples, Herculaneum, Pompeii, Sorrento, Capri, Amalfi & Positano takes in all the main sights & attractions as well as some off the beaten track.
If you are interested in Napoléon or Ancient Rome this may be the tour for you, as it visits several venues connected with Napoléon (who was a great admirer of the Romans) as well as sites where Roman buildings stand/once stood as well as visiting the “Eternal City” itself. Likewise it will appeal to antique collectors (or anyone who likes a good rummage) as it also features a couple of flea markets along the way. This Tour is best taken spring/early summer/or autumn to enjoy good weather without it being too hot to be comfortable.
Tour 5 – Cologne, Cities & Towns of the Rhine, Berlin & London (12 Day Tour) - With vibrant Cologne as this tour's 1st base it enables you to discover the sights of the beautiful wine producing Rhine & Ahr Valleys & their lovely historical towns & cities before moving on to the delights & attractions of the trendy buzzing capital cities of Berlin & London.
This tour is ideal for train enthusiasts as it makes much use of the West Rhine Railway to visit the picturesque towns & cities (Bonn, Düsseldorf, Koblenz, Altenahr, Brühl, & Remagen) of the Ahr & the Rhine Valleys. (It is worth noting that the Rhine has more castles along its banks, between Koblenz & Bingen, than any other river valley in the world). Alternatively serious shoppers will love the superb shopping facilities available on this tour (particularly fans of C&A as there are branches in every town on the Rhine & several in Berlin). For added fun for the “big kids” as well as the little ones in your group the tour also includes a visit to the Phantasialand Theme Park.
Tour 6 – Liverpool, Berlin, St Petersburg, Riga & Stockholm (14 day Tour) – This tour starts in historic Liverpool before moving on to vibrant Berlin & then the beautiful city of St Petersburg with its magnificent Palaces & beautiful architecture. Whilst in busy St Petersburg the tour also visits the Imperial Palaces at Peterhof & Pushkin (formerly Tsarskoe Selo) located on the outskirts of the city before moving on to the trendy, tranquil city of Riga for a well earned rest before continuing on to the lovely city of Stockholm.
Please note this tour requires a Russian Visa (& time to acquire one, which needs to be factored in before your visit). This tour is particularly good if the Euro exchange rate is high, as Berlin is the only City on this tour which has the Euro as its currency.
