Amsterdam to Basel: Life Is Short - Take The Trip

Join us on


Join J. Christina and travel vicariously as we wing our way to Amsterdam,  to the land of tulips and historical canals.  Where we will enjoy Amsterdam by-day and by-night. After, we will wind  onward to ply the waters of the legendary Rhine and the alluring Moselle rivers. Where together we will set sail through the Netherlands and segue to Germany, Luxembourg, Switzerland and France - onboard Uniworld's boutique river ship, the River Queen.

European river cruising is not our only genre of travel for the next  several weeks.  We plan to dip, dodge, and weave our way around Switzerland by train. Where we will hopscotch around Basel,  Bern, and  Lucerne  and possibly over to the tiny Principality of Liechtenstein.

Continue  your travels with J. Christina on the third segment of our bespoke journey as we loop along the Cote d’Azur.  Where we will return to our familiar and beautiful home base in Menton, France.  Amble with us to some off-the-beaten-path medieval hilltop villages, while indulging in the sights, sounds, and flavors of the French Riviera that we so enjoy! Come on along, grab a seat, and enjoy these  dreamy destinations with us.  Life is short - Take the trip.
