You will feel like a true Parisian as we navigate the city like locals, hopping the Metro (subway) in Paris and joining our tour guide and driver for our journey through France.

We have chosen our 3 and 4 star accommodations for their location, exquisite charm and grace.

You need not be fluent in French, as the tour will be a uniquely casual, family style experience as we travel together as a small group, working in unison to overcome the language barrier.

Meals

Breakfast 
Each day will begin with breakfast in our hotel.

Lunch 
There will be several days where lunch  will be on your own and you may want to keep it light or simply have a snack as more often than not  we will be enjoying afternoon tea later as a group. 

While in Paris, we will enjoy several famous tea salons and 5 star hotel teas, but once we are outside the city, there are few places that serve a traditional afternoon tea.  

Dinner
Three dinners will be included in the tour, including a dinner cruise of the Seine on our last night in Paris.  The itinerary shows all included meals.

Transportation
Be prepared for a lot of walking, as it is truly the only way to experience each place on the itinerary. We will use the Metro in Paris to move about the city, and will have a small bus and driver for our travels outside the city.

Accommodations

All rooms have en suite bathrooms.
Tour prices are based on double occupancy.  If you do not have a roommate accompanying you on the trip, you will be paired with another un-paired traveler of the same sex.

Most accommodations will have two twin beds in the room however occasionally the only choice available is a queen sized bed.
