Trip Summary
-
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! -
Honfleur
At the mouth of the Seine opposite Le Havre, Honfleur is one of Normandy's most charming fishing ports. It is 500 years older than Le Havre, dating from the 11th century. It is especially known for its beautiful picturesque port, painted many times by artists like: Gustave Courbet, Claude Monet and Johan Jongkind, who have contributed to the appearance of the Impressionist movement. The main sights in town are the 17th century Bassin and the Lieutenance buildings, the church of Sainte Catherine.
Admire Saint Catherine's Catholic Church, Pont de Normandie, Maisons Satie, Musee Eugene Boudin, and more! -
Mont Saint Michel
Mont Saint Michel is a small rocky island in Normandy, on the north coast of France, near the border of Brittany and Normandy. Massive walls measuring more than half a mile in circumference surround this great tourist attraction, a Gothic-style Benedictine abbey, perched on a rocky, cone-shaped islet in the midst of immense sandbanks. The church is dedicated to the archangel St Michael. Mont Saint-Michel is connected with the shore by a causeway.
