Itinerary

1. 1

   Hello London

   Embrace the pomp and pageantry of a city that combines the fascinating heritage of yesteryear with all the verve of a modern capital. Stroll through its leafy Royal Parks, shop up a storm on Oxford Street or visit some of London's world-famous historic attractions or museums to gain a sense of a place that is certainly larger than life. This evening, join your Travel Director and fellow travellers for dinner.

2. 2

   Soak up Bath and on to Stonehenge

   This morning leave London and travel to Bath. Visit the Roman Baths from which the city derives its name and enjoy an orientation of this World Heritage Site with its beautiful Georgian architecture. After free time for lunch, travel through the scenic countryside and stop at Stonehenge to visit the historic stone monoliths where pagans once worshipped.

3. 3

   Discover London and Journey to Windsor

   London's iconic sights take centre stage today during a half-day introductory sightseeing tour with a Local Specialist. See Big Ben, the imposing Houses of Parliament, Westminster Abbey and Buckingham Palace, before travelling to the town of Windsor with its vast royal castle, the oldest and largest continuously occupied castle in the world. See the chapel where Prince Harry and Meghan were married. Spend the afternoon following in the footsteps of royalty. Explore over 900 years of royal history, ambling through this historic market town before returning to London. Discover London's theatrical treasures this evening, should you consider joining your Travel Director at an optional West End show.

4. 4

   Explore London Your Way

   Enjoy a day at leisure to explore the captivating sights and sounds of London. Your Travel Director will provide you with recommendations on how to spend your day in the city. Perhaps take a leisurely cruise along the Thames River, delve into centuries of history and admire the exquisite crown jewels at the Tower of London, catch a flight on the London Eye, then meander through the stalls of Covent Garden.

5. 5

   Cross the English Channel to Paris

   After four beautiful days in London, it's now time to explore The City of Light. Departing London, we travel through the lush green Kent countryside to board our ferry in Dover, watching the impressive White Cliffs disappear into the distance as we cross to France. We pass the World War I battlefields of the Somme en-route to Paris where we will spend four nights. This evening Connect With Locals over dinner and indulge in a first-hand encounter with Parisian culture during a Be My Guest experience.

6. 6

   Explore the Sights of Paris

   The 'City of Light' shines brightly today as your Local Specialist takes you on a sightseeing tour of Paris. View the grand Champs-Élysées, Arc de Triomphe, Place de la Concorde and Notre Dame Cathedral before enjoying a walk through the Latin Quarter. This evening, enjoy the city by night or perhaps attend a colourful Parisian cabaret performance.

7. 7

   The Splendour of Versailles

   Enjoy a free morning in Paris or pay a visit to Impressionist master Claude Monet's House and Gardens in Giverny. Later, join a Local Specialist to explore the opulent Palace of Versailles – its splendour and beauty created to reflect the self-proclaimed majesty of King Louis XIV, the 'Sun King'. See the exquisite sprawling gardens and the Hall of Mirrors with its impressive chandeliers. Spend a free afternoon discovering this beautiful city at your own pace.

8. 8

   Wander Magical Paris

   Spend the day at leisure delving into the sophistication and glamour of Paris on your own terms. Sample delicious French cakes at a local pâtisserie, amble along the cobblestone lanes of Le Marais, maybe wander through Montmartre and admire the imposing white domes of Sacré-Cœur, or enjoy a light-hearted picnic in the pretty Tuileries gardens. On our last evening together in Paris, join your travel companions and Travel Director for dinner in the city.

9. 9
