After seeing the distinctive structures and skylines of London, Rome, Florence and Paris, linger over views of the Rhine Valley, the Alps of Italy, the Italian Lakes, and the lush wine region of Burgundy. Once every 10 years, Oberammergau, a tiny, picturesque village in the heart of the Bavarian Alps, reenacts an event which draws people of every religious denomination from the four corners of the world to witness the most poignant and moving story ever told. The sheer spectacle of the performance is beyond any West End or Broadway production, and is not to be missed.
