Product Information

Visions of The Great Cities of Europe gives viewers an overview of some of Europes most interesting cities London, Amsterdam, the French Riviera and Monaco, Rome, Vienna, Budapest, Prague, Dublin, Florence, Venice and Paris for the ultimate tour. VISIONS of THE GREAT CITIES OF EUROPE samples a variety of cultures like no guide book could. From the air we see the majestic architecture of Vienna, the incomparable coastline of the Cte dAzur, to the timeless monuments of Rome,. Ground footage brings us a natives view of Amsterdams bicycle culture and winding canals and Pragues Old Town Square. Unobtrusive narration is like a well-travelled friend giving you insider tips about where to go and what to see. The whirlwind journey begins in London, sweeping over Tower Bridge, the London Eye, and then coming to ground level to Buckingham Palace. Then its off to the Netherlands and Old Amsterdam, the easy going city where one could spend days people-watching in the Dam before a trip to the dichotomous terrain of Budapest. We follow the Mediterranean sun to the opulence of the French Riviera and the tiny country of Monaco. VISIONS of THE GREAT CITIES OF EUROPE spotlights the must see sites of these metropolitan meccas, as well as the more intimate moments that make a city personal. Rome, the Eternal City, boasts treasures like the Coliseum along with historical landmarks with modern focus, like the socializing and shopping surrounding the Spanish Steps. A speed train then takes us to Vienna, where landmarks like the Sacher Hotel and Karlsplatz are covered in typically Viennese three-quarter time before the VISIONS series first visit to the Czech Republic in colourful Prague. VISIONS of THE GREAT CITIES OF EUROPE offers the charm of old Dublin, followed by the culture of Florence, the romance of Venice, and finally Paris, where we enjoy Quasimodos bell tower view, the Tour Eiffel, and even a taste of the Moulin Rouge.

  • What a crock!

    This DVD iterally shows a fleeting vision of some of Europe's cities, from a helicopter, with no ground shots or inside shots of the famous and beautiful European cities & their buildings. The music behind the dreary narration was boring & intrusive. The helicopter flew over buildings, but a lot of those buildings were not given titles so I have no idea what they were of; and of course no shots were taken from ground level nor inside famous buildings. This is a most disappointing DVD and I do not recommend anyone else wasting their money on this item.
