Amsterdam, Berlin, and Prague

7-day independent rail trip from Amsterdam to Prague via Berlin

Illustration of Amsterdam, Berlin, and Prague

Railbookers operates this 7-day independent rail vacation linking Amsterdam, Berlin, and Prague, with two nights in each city. The trip is unguided day to day: travelers explore Amsterdam's canals and museums, including the option to visit the Anne Frank Museum, before taking a standard-class train to Berlin. In Berlin a small group walking tour covers sections of the Berlin Wall, including the East Side Gallery, and Checkpoint Charlie. The train onward to Prague makes a stop in Dresden to see the Frauenkirche Church, and the final two nights are spent exploring Prague's four districts, including Prague Castle and its Bohemian crown jewels. Because it is independent rather than escorted, this suits travelers who prefer to set their own pace in each city rather than follow a group leader, while still having the train legs, hotel breakfasts, and city sightseeing passes arranged in advance.
