5-Day Europe Tour Package from London: Belgium, Germany, Switzerland and France | Indian and Vegetarian Food

This morning, join your coach and head toward Dover or Folkestone for your crossing to Calais or Dunkerque. Make sure to have your passports ready, as we will be crossing UK and French immigration, as well as security. The ferry crossing takes about 90 minutes (40 minutes via the Euro Tunnel train). After lunch, we continue driving towards Brussels, the capital of Belgium.

Upon reaching Brussels, we'll take a moment to capture a photo at the "Atomium," a remarkable stainless-steel structure built for the 1958 Brussels World's Fair, standing at an impressive 102 meters. The nine massive stainless-steel spheres are intricately connected to mimic the structure of an iron crystal, magnified 165 billion times.

Following this photo stop, we proceed to our hotel and restaurant, situated in the Northeastern Grand Est region of France (Metz, Nancy, or Strasbourg). Depending on the hotel's location, we will either dine at the restaurant for an Indian dinner or head to the hotel, where our caterers will serve dinner in one of the conference rooms later in the evening. You can then rest after a long day of travel.

Today morning after breakfast, we check out of the hotel and board the coach heading South-East. We continue our drive into Germany. While we drive through the Black Forest, enjoy the tree-lined alpine views, and be fascinated by the deep gorges along the way.

We then arrive at the small town of Titisee-Neustadt in the middle of the Black Forest. Among dark fir trees, high hills, spectacular cliffs, and gentle valleys sits the largest natural lake in the Black Forest, Titisee, which stretches for some 2 km (over 1 mile). Here, enjoy some free time to wander the quaint streets, relax by the lake, or shop for locally made cuckoo clocks and a varied selection of souvenirs. After your shopping trip, we have our Indian lunch before heading towards Switzerland.

Continuing our journey south of Germany and into Schaffhausen, a city in northeastern Switzerland on the river Rhine, next to the German border. On arrival, take the time to admire the prime tourist attraction of the Rhine Falls, Europe's largest open-plain waterfalls. You have the time to enjoy a quick trip to the center of falls on the erosion-resistant rock or simply bide the short time we have here, admiring the beauty from the banks of the River Rhine with the Wörth Castle in the backdrop.

We re-join our coach and make our way towards Central Switzerland and to Lucerne. In Lucerne, spend time admiring Lake Lucerne, the fourth-largest lake in Switzerland, with Mt Pilatus, Mt Rigi, and the Swiss Alps in the background, or take a wonderful walk around the Old Town in the pretty cobbled streets. Don’t forget to walk and view the Chapel Bridge, also known as Kapellbrücke, the famous 204 meters long wooden-covered bridge originally built in 1333, regarded as the oldest covered bridge in Europe.

We later visit the Lion Monument, or the Lion of Lucerne, a rock relief designed by Bertel Thorvaldsen. It commemorates the Swiss Guards who were massacred in 1792 during the French Revolution when revolutionaries stormed the Tuileries Palace in Paris. The carving has often been heralded as "the most mournful and moving piece of stone in the world."

We board back onto the coach after another fun-filled day heading for our evening Indian meal and hotel.

After breakfast today, we ascend 10,000ft to the summit of Mt. Titlis. We take a small cable car or funicular depending on the time of the year before we board the world's first revolving cable car, the Titlis Rotair. The Rotair completes one full revolution as we ascend to the top of Mt. Titlis, offering a breathtaking 360-degree view of the Uri Alps. At the summit, you can not only enjoy panoramic views of the Swiss landscapes but also take pictures in traditional Swiss outfits, purchase souvenirs, and walk the highest Cliff Walk, a suspended pedestrian bridge along the cliff of Mount Titlis 3,000m above sea level. It's believed to be the highest elevation suspension bridge in Europe (subject to operation). Spend the morning playing in the snow and visiting the ice caves.

On Mt. Titlis, you can also enjoy the optional Ice Flyer (subject to operation). The Ice Flyer chairlift smoothly carries you over pristine snowfields and icy depths, with some crevasses up to twenty meters deep. This glacier experience is unique to Mt. Titlis, and you can purchase souvenir photos from the photo studio shop.

We head down in the early afternoon for a well-deserved Indian lunch after the morning's activities. Once our energy levels are replenished, we board our coach and make our way from Engelberg to the beautiful city of Interlaken.

In the afternoon, we reach Interlaken, a small town nestled between Lake Thun and Lake Brienz. The Höheweg is Interlaken's main street, running between Interlaken West and Interlaken Ost Railway Stations. Spend time shopping for souvenirs along the high street or simply admire the stunning views of the Bernese Alps. You can also wander through the Kursaal Garden, where you will find a 350 Kg statue of the renowned Indian filmmaker, the late Yash Chopra.

We transfer back to our coach, heading towards the city of Geneva.

In the evening, once we reach Geneva, we make a couple of short photo stops. We first visit the "Jardin Anglais," known as the English Gardens, where we stop for photos of the National Monument featuring Lady Geneva and Lady Helvetica. We also see the iconic Flower Clock, an outdoor flower clock designed in 1955, made with colorful blooms that change seasonally, and finally, the Jet d'Eau (subject to operation), a fountain lit up at night, pumping half a cubic meter of water per second 140m into the air.

We then head towards the United Nations of Geneva (UNOG) for our second photo stop. The UNOG is the second-largest of the four major office sites of the United Nations and is situated in the Palais des Nations building, constructed for the League of Nations between 1929 and 1938. Capture an amazing picture containing all the flags of the countries of the United Nations.

We finish our quick trip to Geneva by heading towards the restaurant and hotel, where we enjoy a buffet Indian dinner before settling in for the night.

After enjoying your morning meal at the hotel, we bid farewell to our current location and set our course for the captivating city of Paris. It's important to note that our arrival in Paris is anticipated for late afternoon, with a planned stop en route for lunch. At the lunch stop, you will find a selection of continental cuisine; however, please be aware that there are no fast food establishments available within the service area.

Upon reaching the enchanting "City of Lights", our first stop is none other than the world-famous Eiffel Tower, the timeless symbol of Parisian grandeur. Prepare to ascend this magnificent landmark and take in sweeping views of the city from the best available level - whether it's the stunning second floor or, when accessible, the topmost Level 3, offering breathtaking 360° panoramas.

And here's a special treat - if access to the top floor (Level 3) is available on the day of our visit, you will enjoy this upgrade absolutely complimentary! It's our way of adding a little extra sparkle to your Parisian experience.

Please be mindful that due to its status as the world's most visited paid monument, extended security and ticket queues are expected, and reservations are not always an option.

In the evening, we proceed to a restaurant for a delightful group buffet dinner. After savouring your Indian meal at the designated entry time, you will commence on your Paris Illumination tour.

This captivating night tour spans approximately 90 minutes and grants you a splendid view of Paris's key landmarks illuminated in all their glory. From the comfort of our coach, you will have the opportunity to admire the Louvre, Arc de Triomphe, Place de la Concorde, and Les Invalides. The enchanting streetlights and monumental illuminations will draw your gaze toward these magnificent sights. As the clock strikes the hour, you will witness the Eiffel Tower come to life, sparkling for five magical minutes - a truly mesmerising moment that captures the spirit of the "City of Lights."

Finally, as the night deepens, we make our way to the hotel for our overnight stay. A restful night's sleep awaits, preparing us for the wonders that tomorrow holds.

Today morning, we check out of the hotel after breakfast and load the luggage depending on your final drop-off point.

We then make our way back to the center of Paris, where we embark on the famous "Bateaux" cruises of Paris for our one-hour cruise along the River Seine. During this cruise, we cover the stunning architecture that Paris has to offer, including the Grand Palais, Petite Palais, Pont Alexandre 3rd bridge, National Assembly, Invalides, and, of course, the spectacular Eiffel Tower. The glass-covered boat is at your disposal, and you can choose to sit inside or outside while listening to the commentary of the sights.

While traveling around Paris, you would have covered various other sights, including the Vendome, home to the Ritz Hotel; Concorde Square, made famous during the French revolution; and Avenue des Champs Élysées, the largest tree-lined boulevard in Paris.

We then depart Paris and make our way towards Calais, not before stopping at an Indian restaurant for our last meal together. After Lunch, we continue to make our way back to London.

The journey back is when we say goodbye to friends we have made along the way as we drop off those getting off on the route.

Once we reach Calais, we cross over back into Dover or Folkestone, depending on our crossing schedule for the tour on the day. We continue our journey towards Wembley and dropping passengers off at their respective drop-offs.
