Paris is regarded as one of the most dynamic cities in Europe, and for good reason: the city assaults the senses; demanding to be seen, heard, touched, tasted, and smelled. Gaze at impressive monuments and savor its gourmet cheeses, chocolates, wines, and seafood. Paris is relatively small as capitals go, with many of its major sights and museums within walking distance of each other. A world of discovery awaits in every hidden corner and at all the famous sites, there is so much to explore.
Visit the Eiffel Tower, Louvre Museum, Arc de Triomphe, Notre Dame Cathedral, Jardin des Tuileries, Latin Quarter, Avenue des Champs Elysees, Musee d'Orsay, Place de la Concorde, Arc de Triomphe and so much more!
3 nights in Bourges
Once the capital of Aquitaine, Bourges lies in the heart of France and it boasts a rich medieval past. In 52 B.C., Caesar called it the finest city in Gaul. The Saint Etienne Cathedral, the Jacques Coeur Palace are just two examples of the precious heritage from its past. Its spring festival "le Printemps de Bourges" is the international crossroads of rock music. The colorful atmosphere of the Water Gardens and the quietness of its old Berry Canal are an invitation to walking and relaxing.
