Itinerary

Expand All

Day 1

We travel by Eurostar from London St Pancras International to Amsterdam via Brussels and transfer by coach to the ship, where dinner is included this evening.

Day 2 Amsterdam To Düsseldorf

Location: Amsterdam to Düsseldorf

This morning, enjoy time to explore the quaint cobbled streets of Amsterdam at your own pace. Why not take in the sights and scenery from a unique angle with guided boat tour around the famous canal network? Or, you can visit the Anne Frank House, Van Gogh Museum or impressive Rijksmuseum, before setting sail for Düsseldorf at lunchtime.

Day 3 Düsseldorf To Koblenz

Location: Düsseldorf to Koblenz

This morning, we arrive in Düsseldorf, the German city famous for its fashion industry and impressive art scene. You’ll experience a taste of the old and new here, with modern, stylish architecture standing alongside traditional buildings. If you’re looking to take in the highlights of the city, be sure to join our optional guided tour! Alternatively, why not indulge in a spot of retail therapy in the popular shopping area of Konigsallee?



We return to the ship for lunch and enjoy an afternoon and overnight sailing to Koblenz.

Day 4 Koblenz To Rüdesheim

Location: Koblenz to Rüdesheim

We arrive into historic Koblenz, one of the oldest, prettiest and most diverse cities in Germany! This morning, you can join our optional excursion to explore the pristine Sayn Palace with its tranquil butterfly garden.



We return to the ship for lunch and begin sailing towards the quaint town of Rüdesheim, where we arrive later this evening.

Day 5 Rüdesheim To Traben-Trarbach

Location: Rüdesheim to Traben-Trarbach

Spend the morning at leisure in Rüdesheim. Alternatively, join our optional excursion and visit the unique Siegfried’s Mechanical Museum, before soaking up the views of the breathtaking Rhine Valley with an exciting cable car ride.



We return to the ship for lunch and sail overnight to Traben-Trarbach.

Day 6 Traben-Trarbach To Trier

Location: Traben-Trarbach to Trier

At the turn of the twentieth century, the town of Traben-Trarbach found itself at the heart of the world wine trade. This small city was once the Moselle Valley’s only town, and it was also one of the world’s most important producers of wine in the early 1900s. As the demand for wine cellars increased, the town came up with a genius solution – building huge cellars underneath the town.



On our optional excursion this morning, you can head below the streets for a subterranean experience. You’ll venture down into one of the vaults for a guided tour and, of course, a glass of wine!

We return to the ship for lunch and sail towards Trier, arriving later this evening.

Day 7 Trier To Cochem

Location: Trier to Cochem

This morning, you’ll have some free time exploring the ancient Roman city of Trier – one of the oldest cities in Germany!

Our optional walking tour offers a fascinating insight into the history and culture of the city, taking in ancient Roman ruins as you go.

Later today, we return to the ship for lunch and set sail for Cochem.

Day 8 Cochem To Cologne

Location: Cochem to Cologne

This morning, we arrive in Cochem, an idyllic town set against the stunning backdrop of the Moselle Valley. Dominating the landscape is the 11th-century Reichsburg Castle, which is over 1,000 years old and boasts incredible panoramic views from the top. Why not join our optional guided tour of the castle and see its newly restored neo-Gothic architecture up close?

After lunch, we set sail to Cologne.

Day 9

We bid farewell to our captain and crew this morning. You'll be transferred by coach to Cologne railway station for the journey to Brussels. From here, you'll take the Eurostar back to London St. Pancras International.

I went on the 4 countries trip and swiss glacier express and overall it was a great trip. The coach I was on was silver service, it was tidy had nice seats and other accessories such as charging points and headsets which was very handy. The drivers Alex and Dave were fantastic, very kind, funny and respectful throughout the whole trip and a pleasure to talk to. The excursions were very pleasant and all ran very smoothly. The hotels were decent and offered a good service. I overall very much recommend leger holidays.

Excellent customer service

10-Jan-2023

Booked our ‘Christmas in Austria & Scenic Trains of the Tyrol’ through George on the customer Helpline. Nothing was too much trouble, everything clearly & patiently explained. He even had permission to log in on his day off to finalise the sale! A charming and helpful young person and a credit to the company.

10-Oct-2023

Been on two tours now the “D Day beaches” and “ All Quiet on the Western Front” tour of the Somme and Ypres. Both four days in total, two travelling and two on the site of the various battles. This is outstanding value for money, picked up from Carlisle , Cumbria and literally looked after all the way through the tours. The coaches are great and the accommodation spot on . The guides are very knowledgeable ( Mark Hope brilliant guy)and the bus drivers professional . Absolutely fantastic .

21-Jul-2022

Due to covid it was 3rd time lucky for us to visit lake Garda, what a treat. One or two hiccups but no fault of Legers at all. Praise to Graham and Chris for their excellent driving and coffee service. Our visit to Verona, our guide was very informative but did walk at a pace sometimes had to hurry to keep up. A lovely holiday

Four Countries New Year & the Swiss Glacier Express

07-Jan-2024

Firstly we must thank Alex and Dave our tour guide / drivers who entertained us through out . The tour was fantastic so was the hotel’s food and entertainment. The tour was through the new year holidays as expected lots of shops closed and hotels were understaffed which was lost on some travelers. We travelled back from stop 24 on a luxuria coach I would recommend paying the extra for the comfort alone

25-Mar-2024

just returned from a solos break to valkenburg and rhine valley i enjoyed the break overall although both journeys were considerably longer than expected due to several picks ups. I could have done without the 3 countries meeting point excursion to be honest and the lunch on rhine cruise was very basic. The drivers/couriers were efficient and good humoured and provided free lunch vouchers on the ferry which were much appreciated. I probably would book another break with leger but to somewhere a lot closer to home.

26-Dec-2023

I'd like to go lowerthan one star .my trip over to Italy nearly 36 hours in total.the driver and his wife gave thier mother a seat that was paid for and reserved at a price by another lady who was finally allowed to sit at the front with the drivers mother .( that was good of them considering the lady had paid for 2 holidays and one couldn't make it . I had the cheek to ask for coffee only the women driver to have conversation loud enough for my earshot to her husband then put over the tannoy that coffee will be when they are ready. ( i had bought 24 tickets for drinks on steves advice )but i quietly corrected them saying that they really shouldn't do that so I could hear.Then a barrage of abuse came from her for then her husband to face me off at my seat and a threats to get my case off and find my own way home his face red with rage pointing in my face with comments saying they don't have to take that from me.as they are fed up with people and they have to work 21 hours etc etc .they people were shouting STOP STOP STOP .he continued his rant and saying I would be dropped at the next service station. ( FRANCE) it was raining and I had no idea where I was going or had been.He the gave me a can of diet coke and said i could have it free but no oppology! 15 hours later in italy I wanted to leave and get a plane home .legers were no help but another coach arrived same sort of holiday shearings with nice drivers .No Rome visit and I could be with them for the remainder of time. I did go out on a couple of trips and the bus and drivers were amazing .I was told by legers eventually I can do the return journey with then but my holiday was ruined I cried and slept and am emotionally traumatised . On the plus side the coach i arrived on the doors kept opening in the wind the coach had to pull over and close the door so we could only use side door which was a fire hazzard ! Still no apology last day is today I'm spending in my room .I just want to return to England because I will be getting a solicitor for the abuse i suffered and the money I paid and for the wasted week over Christmas not to mention the anxiety I have suffered .the hotel and food was abysmal. The worse week ever and £1500 spent my nerves are in shreads .I can't wait to see the reviews and already I am flooded with statements from other passengers about how bad it is and my how I should fight for my injustice of it all .this time it must go to court so people are heard and intimidation like this is not allowed

Many thanks to Molly.

03-Jan-2023

I have recently booked a trip to Le Mans and had the good fortune to speak to Molly. She was very helpful and a pleasure to talk to. She was able to answer all but one of my queries with clarity and promised to ring me with the answer to the un-answered question as it required further investigation. This she duly did. An unusually pleasant experience when making a booking over the phone, if only it could be this easy every the time.
