The itinerary would be very similar to the Paris Amsterdam trip we did in 2014, click here. Price will be different because of one extra ballet performance, one day longer trip, possible increases in trip components, and changes in the exchange rate (although if you are American this is in your favour), but this will give you a ballpark idea.
