ITINERARY
DAY 1
We will pick you up from our designated pick up point and travel to Dublin for our ferry to Holyhead. We cross the Pennines to Hull and board the overnight cruise ferry to Rotterdam, with ensuite cabins. (D, B&B)

DAY 2
We disembark at Rotterdam’s famous Euro Port the largest container port in Europe and then travel across the Netherlands. Our first stop today is the city of Eindhoven. Although Eindhoven is an old city, with town and market rights already awarded in 1232, little of this long history is visible when exploring its centre today. Large parts of the city were destroyed during air raids in World War II and post-war reconstruction was focused on ambitious, modernist plans with little respect for the historic heritage that was left. Nevertheless, there are 140 national heritage sites (Rijksmonumenten) in and directly around the city, including many 19th and early 20th century buildings and a handful of older ones. There will be time to explore and have some lunch in one of the many restaurants. We then continue our journey to Valkenburg where we check into the hotel for our 4 night stay. (D, B&B)

DAY 3
Today is a day of leisure in Valkenburg. Valkenburg is sometimes called Marlstone Town because of the lime found in the soil and the soft yellow marlstone which has since Roman times been quarried as building material. As a result, there is now a network of over 150 miles of underground corridors beneath the town. The towns latest attraction are the Marlstone Workshops located underground which are well worth a visit. While underground why not visit the Grot van Daelhem, the last coal
mine in Holland. There is plenty to keep you occupied above ground as well such as the Castle ruins, many shops, bars, cafes and restaurants. Why not take a trip on the South Limburg Steam Train and travel at leisure through the rolling countryside surrounding Valkenburg. (B&B)

DAY 4
After breakfast, we travel to the City of Maastricht also known as the Paris of the Benelux. A walking tour will show you the prettiest parts of the old city centre including the Stokstraat Quarter, the Basilica of our Lady on the O.L Vrouweplein, the Ramparts and the parks plus much much more. Take some time to explore beneath the city where a large part of the Netherlands art treasures were safeguarded during World War II. You can also view the city from water or sitting in a horse-drawn carriage. Return to the hotel. (B&B)

DAY 5
Today we cross the border into Germany and make our way to the City of Cologne. Cologne is the fourth largest City in Germany and is famous for its twin-spire cathedral and fabulous shopping. A guided tour will show you all the sights before spending some time at leisure to explore. (B&B)

DAY 6
After breakfast, we check out of the hotel and make our way back to Rotterdam. Today we visit the City of Amsterdam which is famous for its canals, museums and historical centres. A guided tour will show you all the sights before spending some time at leisure. We make our way to the port at Rotterdam for overnight sailing to Hull with ensuite cabins. (D, B&B)

DAY 7

ITINERARY
DAY 1
We will pick you up from our designated pick up point and travel to Dublin for our ferry to Holyhead. We depart Holyhead and travel to The Isle of Anglesey and see Beaumaris Castle. Beaumaris was built as one of the “iron ring” of North Wales Castles by the English monarch Edward 1, to stamp his authority on the Welsh. But it was never finished, money and supplies ran out before the fortifications reached their full height. Beaumaris is nonetheless an awesome sight, regarded by many at the finest of all the great Edwardian Castles of Wales. The castle is the last and largest of Kind Edwards 1’s Welsh fortifications and houses the oldest existing courthouse in Britain. We continue to the hotel in Llandudno for our 4 night stay. (D, B&B)

DAY 2
We depart the hotel after breakfast and enjoy some time in Llandudno, a seaside resort which has retained much of its Victorian charm. From the sweeping beaches, long crescent promenade and elegant pier to the heights of Great Orme, there is plenty to offer the visitors young and old. Take a ride on the tram or cable car up to Summit of Great Orme, head underground for a tour of the Bronze Age Copper Mines or simply relax on the golden sands. In the afternoon we will visit Conwy, with its magnificent Edwardian Castle and quaint medieval streets. (Optional tour) There will be a 30 minute river cruise on board the Queen Victoria, an ideal way to see the medieval town of Conwy from a different angle. Enjoy the informative commentary which highlights points of interest and historical facts. Return to the hotel. (D, B&B)

DAY 3
We depart the hotel after breakfast and travel to the Ffestiniog Railway the oldest independent railway company in the world today. The journey takes you 13 & a half miles from the harbour in Porthmadog to the slate-quarrying town of Blaenau Ffestiniog. The historic trains climb over 700 feet from sea-level into the mountains through tranquil pastures and magnificent forest, past lakes and waterfalls, round horseshoe bends (even a complete spiral) clinging to the side of the mountain or even tunneling through it. In the afternoon we visit nearby Portmeirion. This fascinating village and gardens was built by Sir Clough Williams-Ellis between 1925-1976. The architecture is primarily known as Italianate, with some buildings designed by the architect and others are rescued follies from other locations. Return to the hotel for dinner. (D, B&B)

DAY 4
We depart the hotel after breakfast and travel to Caernarfon Castle which is possibly the most famous Castle in Wales. Kind Edward intended this castle to be a royal residence and seat of government of North Wales. In 1969, the castle gained worldwide fame as the setting for the investiture of HRH Prince Charles as the Prince of Wales. Later we travel through spectacular Snowdonia to Llanberis for a relaxing train journey on the Llanberis Lake Railway. Enjoy a 60 minute journey along the shores of Lake Padarn with splendid views of Snowdon. After the vintage steam train journey, visit the National Slate Museum. On the site of the vast Dinorwig quarry, the workshops and buildings of the museum are designed as though quarrymen and engineers have just put down their tools and left the courtyard for home. Return to the hotel. (D, B&B)

DAY 5
After breakfast, we will check out of the hotel and travel to Holyhead for our ferry back to Dublin. After disembarkation in Dublin, we will immediately transfer you to your original pick up point.
