TourDescription

Paris remains one of the most inspiring and rewarding cities in the world. Packed with attractions and monuments, from the antique to the most modern cosmopolitan, the city takes nothing for granted. Even once you’ve sampled the city’s magnificent sights, you’ll find an unlimited supply of culture, art, nightlife, eateries and chic shopping experiences to delay your departure. Come delight in Paris’ splendors - the Eiffel Tower, Palais Royal, Arc de Triomphe, Notre Dame, the designer shops along the Champs Elysees - a tree-lined beauty, full of elegant cafes, theaters and shops developed by Louis XV.
Champagne, the region where the fine bubbly is made, holds so many treasures…the lush countryside, medieval churches, timeless castles and villages along winding waterways, historic fortifications in the forested Ardennes, and vineyards as far as the eye can see between Reims and Epernay. Visit Reims, the city of art and history and its UNESCO-listed world Heritage sites: the Notre Dame Cathedral and the Tau Palace, which contains a museum of objects from the cathedral, the basilica and the Saint-Remi Abbey Museum. Savor champagne at the major Champagne Houses, estates and cellars.
