Tauck's journeys throughout Europe are carefully designed to include guided visits to must-see sights, whether on land, at sea or along the rivers.  Each is a well-choreographed blend of signature sightseeing and leisure time for an authentic look at European life.  Your dining experiences range from meals in elegant gourmet restaurants or intimate bistros to gala dinners in historic palaces, each offering a true taste of the region.  Some of your meals will be prepared by Europe's finest chefs...some meals are full a la carte, some are limited a la carte and a few are from a set menu or buffet. Every day, you'll enjoy experiences that you just can't get while traveling on your own.
