Your Itinerary
Day One: Catch the Eurostar to Brussels
Leave London St Pancras or Ebbsfleet International by Eurostar in the morning or early afternoon. Upon arrival in Brussels, meet your Tour Manager and transfer to your hotel. You'll then have the rest of the day free to relax.
Day Two: André Rieu concert in Maastricht
At around 1pm today we'll board the coach and travel to Maastricht. For the rest of the afternoon and early evening, wander the pedestrianised, cobbled streets around Vrijthof Square and explore the attractive shops, cafes and bars, or join our optional private river cruise.
In the evening, take your seat in the Vrijthof Square for the highlight of your break - André Rieu and The Johann Strauss Orchestra in concert. In this magical setting, they'll perform music from across André's repertoire, including classical greats and themes from operas, musicals and films, as well as his trademark waltzes.
After the concert is over, our coach will take you back to your hotel.
Day Three: Travel home from Brussels
After some free time, return to Brussels Midi to begin your Eurostar journey home (departing in the afternoon or early evening), at the end of a wonderful concert break.
