AACHEN & MONSCHAU

CHARLEMAGNE'S IMPERIAL CITY & THE EIFEL'S FAIRYTALE TOWN

Private Day Trip from Brussels · 10 Hours · Professional Guide · Private Chauffeur

Step into 1,200 years of European history with your own professional guide. In Aachen, the favourite residence of Charlemagne, you will discover the magnificent Aachen Cathedral, a UNESCO World Heritage Site where Charlemagne rests and where German kings were crowned for six centuries. Your guide brings the Palatine Chapel, the Town Hall built on the foundations of Charlemagne's palace, the Elisenbrunnen fountain and the lively old town to life, with time to taste the famous Aachener Printen gingerbread.

In the afternoon, your private chauffeur takes you into the green hills of the Eifel to Monschau, a fairytale town of half-timbered houses, cobbled lanes and little bridges over the Rur river. Stroll with your guide past the Red House and the old mustard mill, and enjoy a coffee and cake in one of the most picturesque towns in Germany.

Your private chauffeur takes care of the road in a comfortable luxury Mercedes, with hotel pickup and drop-off in Brussels. 100% private: just you and your group, up to 6 people.
