Itinerary

Day 1: Arrive Berlin

Here we are in the arms of Germany, the first of 6 incredible countries we're going to get very familiar with over the next 13 days. Settle in to your new digs before we head out to start the exploring. This city is one of the world's most historical spots, where hist...

Day 2: Berlin

Make today a perfectly blended affair of old meets new. Opt onto an historical walking tour & see where many East Berliners tried to escape to the West at Checkpoint Charlie, the Berlin Wall, the Holocaust Memorial and Brandenburg Gate, to name but a few. Your Loc...

Day 3: Berlin to Prague via Dresden

Finishing Berlin off on an important note we see the longest remaining section of the Berlin Wall known as East Side Gallery and one of the city's symbols, covered in grafitti from head to toe. Next up, we head to the border and stop at a town called Dresden.A drive f...

Day 4: Prague

Prague is yours to uncover, one ovocné knedlíky traditional fruit dumpling at a time. Grab a push bike and follow yet another Local Guide around, your knowledged up guide who will reveal the secrets of another side of the city, from the John Lennon wall to the 'Dancin...

Day 5: Prague to Vienna via Kutna Hora

Just remember, with every great city we leave behind we find another one, and today we have Vienna in our vision.Out of Prague, our first stop is the World Heritage-listed Kutná Hora. Make the local Sedlec Ossuary chapel high priority, it's decked out and furnished in...

Day 6: Vienna

Let's make one thing very clear: if you want to make your whole day about full-bodied Viennese coffee & warm apple strudel with whipped cream, we're not going to judge. Those who can drag themselves away from this heavenly situation may wish to pop by the Vienna M...

Day 7: Vienna to Budapest via Bratislava

Vielen dank, Vienna! We are officially in love with everything you are. We'd stay for another strudel but we've heard about these famous Hungarian chimney cakes dusted in cinnamon and we're a little bit intrigued...There's nothing like stopping for lunch in an entirel...

Day 8: Budapest

Those still keen to explore can jump on the Budapest Past and Present Tour and continue learning about this incredible city. The House of Terror, the Parliament Building, and some blissful buildings, this will take you on a journey of old and new. After all the beauty...

Day 9: Budapest to Krakow via Banksa Bystrica

3 countries in one day - we can and we will! In no great hurrywe will float out of Hungary with a sojourn through Slovakia(oh hello again) before we head into Poland for dinner. Ah, the life of a traveller.Pastel painted and manicured to perfection, Banska Bystrica is...

Day 10: Krakow

A Jewish Quarter, a jaw-dropping castle & museums aplenty are just some of the relics found in the relatively untouched Krakow. The UNESCO World Heritage-listed centre should occupy your time with an included sightseeing tour with our Local Guide. You'll even see ...

Day 11: Krakow to Warsaw

This morning we change our tune and take a moving stop at Auschwitz, the most infamous former Nazi concentration camp and a very sobering experience.Perogies Polish dumplings and a glass of compote somewhere within Warsaw's lively cafe scene should be your introductio...

Day 12: Warsaw

You didn't think we were winding down now, did you? Gosh no. Not when we have an old Jewish Ghetto to explore and an authentic Polish feast to devour, and both are included. Tragic bombings after the war have seen this city experience a re-birth, and it's packed with ...

Day 13: Depart Warsaw/Berlin

Whether you choose to hitch a free ride back to Berlin or you end your festivities here in Warsaw, the pain will be equally unbearable. We have just two words: Reunion Trip.
