Ok. In comparing, it doesn't look like your tour stays at any of the hotels we stayed at, so I'm not sure about those.
London- we did the Tower of London & the Taste of London excursions listed on your options. I enjoyed the cruise on the Taste of London, and the pub had character, but the food was just ok. I enjoyed the Tower of London excursion.
The morning sightseeing tour was included on our tour, so we didn't have to pay extra for that, and I really enjoyed that as well. I would have loved to have had another day to do the Windsor castle tour.
Amsterdam- the canal cruise was included on our tour as well, that was nice. The diamond factory was included to, I would have skipped going in for more free time, but I'm not interested in buying diamonds, and that's really what it's for.
The Rhine cruise again was included on our tour and I loved it!
Lucerne- I thought we would have the option of a lake cruise, but we didn't have time for that.
There was a similar mountain excursion, but it was to Mt. Pilatus.
We skipped the Swiss folklore dinner, which people on our tour said was fun, but the food wasn't good.
Venice- again we did the gondola excursion which was great!
Rome- it looks like the dinner and tour was similar to one that we did. It was a fun night, entertainment at the restaurant was a little corny, but it was fun to see all the sights.
The Vatican tour was included on our tour. That was an experience for sure, it's unreal how crowded it is there!
Our excursion to Monte Carlo was cancelled due to the whole train strike in France, which was so upsetting. It was the reason we chose this tour. I had always dreamed of going there!
Paris- our tour included going up in the Eiffel tower.
We did the excursion to Versailles and I enjoyed that.
We also did the cabaret show Nouvelle Eve. I just felt like I had to do one in Paris, but it's expensive.

Are you booking your air with Cosmos? We did book with Globus. The air was actually a tad under what I had found anyway, and that way our transfers were included.
You will have a great time, it's such an awesome experience!
