Itinerary
Tonight, after an included dinner, Amsterdam is yours to explore in all its fun-filled glory. Want to keep the good times rolling? You've got the option to catch a comedy show. The night is still young. (D) Stay: Holiday Inn Express Amsterdam North Riverside (or similar)
Opportunities in Amsterdam are infinite & the day is yours to explore one of the world's most unique cities. Street art and graffiti lovers have the chance to visit the STRAAT Museum. Today use your time to get local, bar hop, museum crawl, and see what other tastes take your fancy, this place is famous for pancakes, frites and so much more. After exploring, you'll have the chance to join a dinner at the beautiful fishing village of Volendam & an opportunity to cruise the famous canals and revel under the city lights. (B)
Out of Amsterdam, onto the autobahn and on the fast-track to uber-cool Berlin. That's on today's agenda. On the world map of party vibes, Berlin has a gold star. We've got two nights to explore every inch of this iconic city, and we'll start them off with a tour and a with a delicious dinner! After that, you're free to explore, and maybe even sample some of that legendary nightlife for yourself... (B/D) Stay: Good Morning Berlin City East (or similiar)
Tours, glorious tours! After our taster of Berlin's history yesterday, we'll have two inspiring walking tours in store for today (totally optional of course). First up, take a historical walking tour, including a visit to the site of Hitler's bunker.
In the evening, we'll embark on an Alternative Berlin walking tour, taking us to all the city's hipster haunts and historical hotspots. If you're looking for a night out, tonight is the perfect time to scope out one of those underground raves or cocktail-lounge-in-the-basement scenarios that Berlin is famous for. (B)
This morning we'll motor out of Berlin, ready for our next city. Berlin is one tough act to follow. Next up, we head to the border and stop at a town called Dresden. A drive from Berlin to Prague would not be complete without stopping in Dresden. Destroyed by World War II, the rebuilt town is now a symbol of resilience, soaked in the re-birthed beauty of the Opera house, the domed Frauenkirche, & the Royal Residence.
On arrival in the compact & lovable city of Prague, we'll get out and go exploring, seeing castles and cathedrals and learning of Bohemian Kings and gothic history. Tonight, you could see yourself spending the evening indulging in traditional Czech cuisine while admiring the local folklore dancers. (B) Stay: Zleep Hotel (or similar)
With a full day to loiter, expect an entire photo album of Gothic architecture, market antiques & you cheers-ing local beer; not to mention life! Feeling hungry? There's an optional walking food tour that'll sort you right out. (B)
Today we exchange the Czech Republic for Austria, waving goodbye to pretty Prague knowing that cultured Vienna is coming right up. Austria, we have arrived! It's time to sign up for a dinner at Habibi & Hawara, and a classical concert to top it all off (both totally optional, should you prefer to spend your evening relaxing in style). (B) Stay: Ibis Wien Mariahilf Hotel Vienna (or similar)
And with that, our epic adventure has sadly come to an end. Grab your breakfast, bid your farewells, and don't forget to swap contact deets - you never know when you'll be exploring a new spot together again. (B)
