	 for Travelers
Since inventing the budget vacation over 50 years ago, Cosmos has offered the most affordable travel packages to
the world’s most captivating places—from the City of Brotherly Love to the City of Light…from the Great White North
to northern Africa…from tropical Hawaii to sub-tropical Lugano, Switzerland. We understand that you’d rather spend
another day in London than have a chocolate on your pillow...which is why our well-designed vacations come complete
with comfortable, clean, and attractive hotels; a professional Tour Director; guided city sightseeing of the must-see
sights; dynamic transportation that makes getting around half the fun; and even some meals.
With Cosmos, you enjoy the benefits, convenience, and peace of mind of escorted travel, along with ample free time
to explore your destination the way you want…and longer stays in key cities so that you can immerse yourself in the
local culture. You can personalize your getaway with a great choice of activities and excursions. We even have a great
collection of tours under $1,000…much less than if you booked the same vacation on your own.

We help Solo Travelers save, too
Travel doesn’t have to be a couple or group activity! In fact, more than a third of our passengers
are out there seeing the world on their own, so we’ve designed a great way for solo travelers to
avoid paying the single room supplement and save
money. We accept “guaranteed share” reservations
that match up solo travelers of the same gender in
twin-bedded rooms. And if no other traveler books
“guaranteed share” on your chosen vacation, we’ll set
you up in a single room at no extra charge! If you are
a solo traveler who prefers the privacy of your own
room, single accomodation can be reserved. Single
room supplements are listed on the itinerary pages.

The Right Elements for

meals—so you can immerse yourself fully in your travel experience!

SOME INCLUDED MEALS
Transportation
Spectacular train rides, breathtaking cable car ascents, overnight Aegean cruise ships, scenic day
ferries, private first-class motorcoaches (most with free Wi-Fi )—Cosmos offers a wonderful
variety of transportation for a memorable travel experience. And with Cosmos, you never have to
worry about getting to the ferry on time, buying tickets for the train, or waiting in long lines to
take the cable car. Just sit back and enjoy the ride!
Accommodations
After a day of traveling you want to relax at a comfortable, clean, and attractive hotel. We select
hotels with the best guestrooms (always with a private bathroom), service, and food for the
money. See individual itinerary pages for hotels.
Meals
When it comes to meals, Cosmos strikes a perfect balance. We include some meals to save you
time and money, yet we also leave enough free time so you can sample Europe’s gastronomic
delights on your own. See individual itinerary pages for specifics about which meals are included
on your vacation.

At the heart of every great Cosmos tour are the friendly, knowledgeable folks who show you
around and help you maximize your free time. We go to incredible lengths to find the most
professional Tour Directors and Local Guides. They deliver commentary in English, but are
multilingual so they can navigate Europe with ease and give you the richest experience possible.
When in London, the Cosmos hospitality desk is available at your hotel for any help or information
you may need. Our expert staff can suggest what to do and where to go, and arrange excursions,
evening entertainment, and theater outings for you.

Our packages include guided sightseeing and scenic highlights that reveal the best of Europe.
Cruise down the Rhine River, through the Greek Isles, or across the Straits of Gibraltar. Bask in the

and more. Enjoy inside visits of the must-see sites with knowledgeable Local Guides who will bring
each destination to life. Inside visits and special features are shown in UPPERCASE in the tour

Day 1, Fri. ARRIVE IN LONDON, ENGLAND.
Check into your hotel. Then, enjoy an afternoon
in the lively British capital. Uniformed hosts are
available to help you make the most of your time.
Day 2, Sat. LONDON–BRUSSELS, BELGIUM.
Leave London in the early morning and head
through the lush English countryside to the Channel
port, where you embark on your FERRY for the
Continent. Here, meet your Tour Director and board
your luxury coach for the drive to Brussels. (B)
Day 3, Sun. BRUSSELS–RHINELAND,
GERMANY–ULM AREA. A comfortable journey
on the German Autobahn, traveling south into
the Rhineland and past Stuttgart into Bavaria
with its woods, farms, and pretty villages. Break
up the journey with an optional Rhine cruise,
gliding past the famous Lorelei rock. (B,D)
Day 4, Mon. ULM AREA–INNSBRUCK,
AUSTRIA–VENICE AREA, ITALY. Drive south
this morning into Austria by way of Fern Pass
into Tyrol and on to its capital, Innsbruck.
Continue by way of the Europa Bridge into Italy
and enjoy the enchanting views of the mighty
Dolomites. Descend into the valley on to the
Venetian plain; then, travel eastwards to the
Venice area for an overnight. (B,D)
Day 5, Tue. VENICE AREA. Venice is more like
a marvelous film set than a real-life city, with
its criss-crossing canals, gondolas and water
buses, arched bridges, palaces, and busy little
piazzas. The included orientation starts with
a BOAT RIDE and is followed by some time at
leisure to enjoy this unique city, and a chance to
watch Venetian GLASSBLOWERS fashion their
delicate objects as they did centuries ago. Don’t
miss the optional gondola trip, gliding along the
picturesque canals with a local troubadour to
serenade you. (B)
Day 6, Wed. VENICE AREA–ASSISI–ROME.
An interesting drive southward, cutting across the
Po Plain, then through the gentle Umbrian hills to
Assisi, where St. Francis was born in 1182. Visit
the world-famous BASILICA with its beautiful
frescoes by Giotto, then head for Rome. (B)
Day 7, Thu. ROME. The ”Eternal City”—a city

followed by a visit to the ROMAN FORUM and
the mighty COLOSSEUM. (B)
Day 8, Fri. ROME–MONTECASSINO–POMPEII–
SORRENTO. Deeper into the south today, making a
first stop in Montecassino to view the MONASTERY
and ABBEY perched high above the valley. The
monastery was the home of the Benedictines,
founded in 529 and destroyed four times over the
past centuries. The last time it was laid to ruin was
in 1944 during the great Battle of Montecassino.
Next is another great sight. Time stopped for the
rich, aristocratic town of POMPEII with the terrible
eruption of Vesuvius in 79 AD. Your Local Guide
will bring the town back to life by explaining the

Day 9, Sat. SORRENTO. BOAT TRIP TO CAPRI.
Visit this legendary island, surrounded by rocky
coastline, where the crashing sea has formed

and city of the Medicis. Join the included walking
tour with a Local Guide, which features most of
the city highlights. You will see Piazza Santa Croce;
beautiful Piazza Signoria; Palazzo Vecchio; Loggia
dei Lanzi; and, to top it off, Piazza del Duomo and

the Lombardy plains, and into Switzerland for an
overnight in charming Lugano. (B)
Day 13, Wed. LUGANO–LUCERNE AREA. Some
truly magnificent Alpine scenery this morning
as you travel into the very heart of the Swiss
Alps. Once through the St. Gotthard Tunnel, you
start your descent to Lucerne, perhaps rightly
considered the most Swiss-looking city in the
whole confederation. Today’s visit takes in the
impressive city walls, CHAPEL BRIDGE, ornate
patrician houses lining cobblestone streets,
and the LION MONUMENT, a masterful stone
sculpture in honor of the heroic Swiss Guard of
Louis XVI. A grand selection of optional activities
completes the day: a cruise on the fjord-like lake;
a funicular and cable-car ride to the 6,227-foot
summit of Mount Stanserhorn; and, of course,
time to shop for that very Swiss watch. Continue
to your overnight hotel in the Lucerne area. (B)
Day 14, Thu. LUCERNE AREA–PARIS, FRANCE.
Enjoy vistas of green pastures and attractive
chalets with rustic timbering and luxuriant flowers.
Then, into France, on the highway past some of its

the city that’s known throughout the world for
its fashions, art and museums, delicious food,
and joie de vivre. Included SIGHTSEEING with a

Parisian sights: La Sorbonne, Arc de Triomphe,
Opéra, Madeleine, the Eiffel Tower, the Pyramid
near the Louvre, the Invalides, and Champs
Elysées. Optional excursions are also available.
