Hello London

Embrace the pomp and pageantry of a city that combines the fascinating heritage of yesteryear with all the verve of a modern capital.

Stroll through its leafy Royal Parks, shop up a storm on Oxford Street or visit some of London's world-famous historic attractions or museums to gain a sense of a place that is certainly larger than life. This evening, join your Travel Director and fellow travellers for dinner.

After 4 beautiful days in London, it's now time to explore The City of Light.

The 'City of Light' shines brightly today as our Local Specialist takes us on a sightseeing tour of Paris.

View the grand Champs-Élysées, Arc de Triomphe, Place de la Concorde and Notre Dame Cathedral before enjoying a walk through the Latin Quarter. Spend a free afternoon soaking up the sophistication of this beautiful city. Maybe visit the Musee D'Orsay - housed in a beautiful former Beaux-arts railway station. This evening Connect With Locals over dinner and indulge in a first-hand encounter with Parisian culture during a Be My Guest experience.

The Splendour of Versailles

See the exquisite sprawling gardens, the Hall of Mirrors with its impressive chandeliers. This evening, enjoy the city by night or perhaps attend a colourful Parisian cabaret performance.

Spend the day at leisure delving into the sophistication and glamour of Paris on your own terms.

Sample delicious French cakes at a local pâtisserie, amble along the cobblestone lanes of Le Marais, maybe wander through Montmartre and admire the imposing white domes of Sacré-Cœur, or enjoy a light-hearted picnic in the pretty Tuileries gardens. On our last evening together in Paris, join your travel companions and Travel Director for dinner in the city.
