Today we travel through the French countryside to the charming village of Giverny, home to Impressionist painter Claude Monet. Surrounded by nature’s beauty, the serene atmosphere of his home and gardens will feel as if we have stepped into one of his famous paintings.
This afternoon we visit Versailles, residence of King Louis XIV and the seat of France’s government for a hundred years. Meticulously maintained, the Chateau’s grandeur and brilliance remains that of the 17th century. Get a glimpse of life in this opulent palace on our tour through the State Apartments. Beginning in the King’s Wing, we walk through the impressive Hall of Mirrors before exiting by way of the Queen’s Wing and returning to the city late this afternoon.
If you are tempted by one of Paris’ famous cabarets, tonight may be your night to enjoy their elaborate stage show.

Day 5 : The Louvre
Join your Tour Director for a closer look at this fascinating city. Paris is a collection of unique neighborhoods. We begin our day with a stroll along the Rue Montorgueil and its markets. This bustling street is lined with bakeries, butcher shops, and stores selling cheese, wine, fruits, vegetables, flowers, and chocolate. We follow this with a visit to the Saint Germain des Prés neighborhood. This area was made famous by philosophers, actors, musicians, and writers such as Hemingway that frequented its many cafes.
This evening we visit the Louvre, one of the world’s most famous museums. Our guided tour through what started as a 16th century palace is a walk through France’s history. Home to a vast collection of classic and modern art, we will be inspired by DaVinci’s Mona Lisa, the ancient Greek statues Venus de Milo and Winged Victory and the colossal painting The Coronation of Napoleon.
