Best of Berlin, Prague & Vienna in 12 Days

Beginning in Berlin and ending in Vienna — with Prague, Dresden and the Danube in between — our dozen-day adventure explores the very heart of Europe. From the music of Strauss and the idealism of the Velvet Revolution to the dynasty of the Hapsburgs and the tragic wars of the last century, these remarkable cities have sparked the dangers, hopes, and beauty of Europe — yesterday and today.
