Trip Summary
2 nights in Marseille
Marseille is the second-largest city in France and its premier port. The Vieux Port, is still at the center of city life, with fishing boats, yachts and cabin cruisers all moored together, though larger ships. Ancient remains, early modern buildings, and twentieth century office and housing blocks make up the physical fabric of a thriving city. Urban infrastructure, Mediterranean climate and a convenient location make it an attractive center for vacations and conventions.
Explore MuCEM, Villa Mediterranee, Musee Regards de Provence, Vieux Port (Old Port), Cathedral of Saint Mary Major, Le Panier, Musee Cantini, Chateau d`If, Calanques National Park, Le Canebiere, Basilique Notre Dame de la Garde, and so much more!
2 nights in Arles
This beautiful town on the Rhône has been called 'the soul of Provence,' by art lovers, archaeologists, and historians. Van Gogh has painted luminously many delightful of its scenes. Arles has kept most of its antique charm. Its first-rate museums, excellent restaurants, and summer festivals (such as the early June international photography festival) make a visit rewarding.

2 nights in Avignon
The fortified city of Avignon is located in the lush vineyards of the Rhone Valley, rich in history, artistic brilliance, and Provencal life. From churches and chapels to film festivals and street musicians, Avignon was named the European Capital of Culture in 2000, and the city has been one of France's major artistic centers for centuries. Whether you're exploring the scenic waterways of Provence, Avignon's mixed culture, gastronomy, world-class wine, or the UNESCO World Heritage Sites, you will be sure to create a memorable travel experience in the city of Avignon.

2 nights in Lyon
Lyon is the third-largest city in France offering an imposing history shining through its picturesque streets and monuments from all ages. Parks, skyscrapers and sidewalk cafes, a great transport system, and a nightlife fueled by student energy invigorate Lyon. It has the finest food in France and you will have the chance to discover the "Châteaux" and taste the unequaled wine! There`s the Ancient Theatre dating back to the Roman Empire, the medieval Vieux Lyon quarter, the Basilica of Notre-Dame de Fourvière from the 18th century but also the Opéra Nouvel built just a bit more than a couple of decades ago. And, dotted here and there, the mysterious Traboules, that adds a new dimension to the way you explore a city.

2 nights in Paris
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!
