Central Europe Discovery by Train: Paris, Brussels & Amsterdam

Paris → Amsterdam 12 days Up to 35

About this trip

Twelve days across Paris, Brussels and Amsterdam, with day trips woven in to smaller towns along the way. It moves at an easy pace, mixing guided visits with time to explore on your own.

You start in Paris with Versailles and Monet's gardens, plus a guided day out to Mont Saint-Michel, before a free day in the city itself. From there it's on to Brussels, using the city as a base for day trips into Ghent, Bruges, Luxembourg and Dinant.

The final stretch is the Netherlands, taking in the Dutch villages of Zaanse Schans and Volendam alongside Rotterdam, Delft and The Hague, with guided tours built into several of these stops.

What you'll do

  • Visit the Palace of Versailles and Monet's gardens from Paris
  • Guided day trip to Mont Saint-Michel
  • Free day to explore Paris at your own pace
  • Day trips from Brussels to Ghent, Bruges, Luxembourg and Dinant
  • See the windmills of Zaanse Schans and the village of Volendam
  • Guided tours in Rotterdam, Delft and The Hague
Good to know
  • Partially guided — some days are led, others are free to explore on your own
  • Easy pace, with three main bases (Paris, Brussels, Amsterdam) and day trips out from each
  • Suits families and groups given the mix of structured tours and downtime
