説明

This scenic excursion first visits Berlin, then travels the classic route of the Prussian Emperors to tour historic Potsdam. It begins with a three-hour jaunt to Berlin, much of it across pastoral heath and moorland. Once in the city, your panoramic drive includes highlights like Gendarmenmarkt square, the majestic Victory Column, the Reichstag, and famously tree-lined Unter den Linden, running between Brandenburg Gate and Lustgarten Park. To set the stage for royal splendors to come, you’ll also see the city palace restoration and imposing Berlin Cathedral, where the Hohenzollern Royal Family rests. Then it’s on to Potsdam – summer getaway of kings and emperors – via Royal Route No.1, the first Prussian Highway. Along the way, you’ll cross the Bridge of Glienicke, famously used for exchanging spies during the Cold War. Soon, you’ll find yourself squarely in history at Cecilienhof Palace, site of the 1945 Potsdam Conference where Truman, Churchill and Stalin engineered the division of postwar Germany. Following free time for lunch on your own, you’ll tour another famous kingly palace, Sanssouci, nestled atop six terraced vineyards and ranked as one of Europe’s premier Rococo buildings. A leisurely stroll through Potsdam’s café- and shop-filled Dutch Quarter rounds out this marvelous day.
