The Experience
Take in the sights, the sounds and the history of these two great European cities! Sit back and relax in a pub after exploring London. Perhaps a day out of the city to Stonehenge or Oxford might be an option or venture around London an discover its rich and varied history. Very few cities hold the key to so many hearts as Paris. Sit in a cafe in the Left Bank after taking in all that Paris offers. A day trip to Versailles or to Giverny and Monet’s garden are options you might want to explore. The D-Day beaches in Normandy are easily done in a day from Paris. Either way, London and Paris is a great way to enjoy a week in the old world!
