SIX
COUNTRIES, VENICE and PARIS
by Cosmos Tours
England, Belgium, Germany, Austria,
Italy, Switzerland
and France
If you want to see Western Europe’s main
highlights but don’t have a lot of time, this is the vacation for you!
Visit England, Belgium, Germany, Austria, Italy, Switzerland, and
France. Sample the infamous French food—from fresh baguettes and
pastries to gourmet French cuisine and fine wines. See London’s famous
museums, shop at its famous stores on Bond Street and Knightsbridge, or
kick back and stroll through lovely Hyde Park.
A highlight of your trip is Germany’s Romantic Road. Did you know the
Romantic Road was a trade route during the middle ages? Step back in
time as you travel this famous area—with its charming villages,
cobblestone streets, walled cities, and scenic countryside. Stop in
Rothenburg, a walled town that has retained its medieval character, to
really experience the appeal of the Romantic Road. Once you cross into
Austria, head south into Italy to visit the unique floating city of
Venice as well as Romeo and Juliet’s Verona.
In a shorter period of time, this affordable European vacation offers
it all—historical sites, gastronomic opportunities, quaint towns,
scenic beauty, and time to explore the cities on your own.
