At a Glance

Welcome to France and Germany, two of Europe’s cultural powerhouses, world-renowned for their museums, cuisine, architecture, and enduring folklore. In France, visit the big name sites. You’ll walk the palace of Louis XIV’s Château de Versailles, at the Musée du Louvre you’ll come face to face with the Mona Lisa, and atop the Eiffel Tower you’ll shout bon jour to all of Paris. Off the tourist trail, you’ll learn the science of molecular gastronomy with a French chef, kayak or raft down the Rhine River, and pay respect to American soldiers laid to rest in France during WWI. Next stop is Deutschland. You’ll sleep under the stars in the beautiful Hunsruck mountains, hike picturesque valleys, and learn outdoor skills. Come in from the woods and you’ll explore Heidelburg’s Altstadt and Frankfurt, the city of avant-garde skyscrapers. After nine thrilling days in two great countries, you won’t know whether to say au revoir or Auf Wiedersehen.
