We meet our Tour Manager and our fellow travellers at London St Pancras where we join the Eurostar to Brussels. Travelling in spacious Standard Premier Class we enjoy a light meal at our seats as we glide through northern France and into Belgium. On arrival in Brussels, we change trains and travel by First Class rail to Cologne, where we spend a night.
Arriving around mid-afternoon, the rest of your day is free to explore the historic city nestled beside the glorious Rhine. Cologne's main attraction is its impressive Gothic cathedral with twin spires piercing the sky. Its historic squares are lined with charming buildings housing restaurants and bars. To enjoy a view of the city's skyline, you might like to join a riverboat cruise to see the sights from the Rhine River. This evening, we get to know one another over dinner at our central hotel.
