    Today we’ll pass by vineyards and lovely French vistas on our way to Reims, the capital of Champagne, an old province of France made word famous by its sparkling wine. The city of Reims has played an important role in French history--as the ceremonial home to the coronation of all the kings of France, it was a symbolic center of power from 11th Century until the 19th Century, when Charles X was crowned. Here, we’ll visit the Reims Cathedral, site of the coronations and an architectural wonder in its own right. Later, we’ll drive ahead to Luxembourg, the only remaining Grand Duchy in the modern world. After arriving, we’ll enjoy the view of the Place de Constitution, the canyon in the city and Pont Adophe. We’ll stay for the night in Luxembourg or a nearby city.

    Sunday: Luxembourg - Trier - Koblenz - Frankfurt (301 km)

    Our first visit of the day is to Trier, Germany's oldest city, sometimes nicknamed “the Second Rome” due to its association with Constantine the Great, who served as administrator there for 10 years. We’ll stop to view Porta Nigra, the best-preserved Roman city gate north of Alps, and then visit the Karl Marx Haus, the birthplace—and now museum--dedicated to influential philosopher and socialist thinker Karl Marx. Afterwards, we will drive to Koblenz, the city where the two rivers, the Rhine and the Mosel meet. We will have lunch in this famous scenic place, and have the option to take a cruise along the Rhine*. After lunch, the bus will take us to Frankfurt with a stop in Rudesheim.

We’ll see the Old Town Hall on the edge of the city marketplace square, and then visit Beethoven Haus, the birthplace of composer, Ludwig Van Beethoven, now a musical museum dedicated to his legendary contributions to the world of music. Afterwards, the bus will take us to Cologne to see the Cologne Cathedral and its world-famous twin-spires that attract more than 20,000 admirers a day.

    Today, we’ll enjoy the many famous sights of historic Paris.

At the eastern end, we’ll visit the Place de la Concorde, the large square made famous both by “Cleopatra’s Needle”—an ancient Egyptian obelisk--and as the site where martyrs of the French aristocracy were guillotined at the peak of the Revolution. Then the bus will drive to the Hotel des Invalides, where the tomb of Napoleon is located, before heading to the Eiffel Tower*, where our tour will feature an ascent to its top to view the city. A scenic cruise* along the river Seine will show us many of the city’s most famous sights from the water, including Notre Dame Cathedral and Pont Alexandre III. The rest of the day will be dedicated to exploring the magnificent Palace of Versailles*; once home and refuge to the royal family of Louis XIV, it is now a must-see excursion just outside of Paris.

After browsing through as many of the Louvre’s 400,000 works of art as we can in a few hours, we’ll transfer to Place d’Italie for lunch.
