London, Paris and Amsterdam 10 day trip

Detailed Trip Description

Start off in London where you can take a ride on the London Eye, see the Changing of the Guards and take a day-trip to Stonehenge. Then take a 2-hour train to Paris and visit its world-class museums, dine in small (but gourmet) restaurants, and have a romantic evening stroll under the illuminated Eiffel Tower. Finally, take a 4 hour high-speed train to charming Amsterdam which seems more like a village then a city. Take a trip on the picturesque canals, see what it was really like for Anne Frank and her family, and stop in at one of the friendly coffeeshops that Amsterdam is famous for.
