Day 6 AMSTERDAM - COLOGNE - BONN - TRIER
A special treat at the very start of your journey through Germany is spending time in Cologne to visit the awesome Gothic Cathedral. Its twin 515-foot towers, five naves, splendid stained-glass windows, and the shrine of the Three Holy Kings are eloquent testimony to the quality of medieval engineering and craftsmanship. Next is a walking tour through 2,000 years of Bonn's history, with emphasis on its role as a city of culture during the 19th century and its changing role within Germany since reunification. The government quarter, along the west bank of the Rhine, is a complex of modern, rather nondescript white buildings. The two most impressive, both along Koblenzerstrasse, are the former residences of the president and chancellor. Later we will visit the University of Bonn and the House of Beethoven, birthplace of Ludwig Van Beethoven.

Arrive in Luxembourg in the afternoon, the harmonious capital of one of Europe's smallest sovereign states. Sightseeing covers the city's past and present, from the fortifications and the Old Town perched high atop a sandstone outcrop with striking views on the Alzette and Pétrusse gorges, to the modern administrative center of European institutions. Visit the turreted Grand Ducal Palace, take a stroll along the panoramic cliff path known as "the most beautiful balcony in Europe," and see the grave of General Patton. Next up is Reims, a city well known for its cathedral, Notre-Dame de Reims, where the kings of France used to be crowned.
