Itinerary

• Day 1 - Depart USA Overnight flight to Paris.



• Day 2 - Arrive Paris (7 nights) Greetings from Trafalgar as you arrive at Paris Charles de Gaulle Airport. You are transferred to your hotel for a week in France’s elegant capital! There is so much to see and do – particularly at this time of year when a festive atmosphere is in the air!



• Day 3 - Paris Sightseeing First of all we include a guided sightseeing tour, which takes in all the main highlights including the Arc de Triomphe, Champs Elysées, Place de l'Opera, views of Notre Dame and of course the Eiffel Tower. We will see the Boulevard Haussman where the big stores such as Galeries Lafayette – for which you will have discount vouchers – have their windows specially dressed for children at Christmas. Why not buy some chestnuts 'roasting in an open fire' from a Parisian street vendor before enjoying an included cruise along the river Seine – the perfect way to appreciate the flying buttresses of Notre Dame Cathedral. Then we will visit the Fragonard Perfume Factory where you will be able to purchase all manner of Christmas gifts such as festive scented candles. (Buffet Breakfast)



• Day 4 - Paris at leisure A day at leisure to do as you please. Paris at this time of year is less crowded, so make the most of the lack of people to get into the Louvre or see the Impressionist paintings in the Musée d'Orsay? (Buffet Breakfast)



• Day 5 Paris – Excursion to Versailles Today we will enjoy an included guided visit to the Palace of Versailles, just outside the French capital – the opulent home of the French kings – with its spectacular ornamental gardens. (Buffet Breakfast)



• Days 6, 7 & 8 - Paris at leisure Plenty of time for shopping, sightseeing or simply strolling in the Luxembourg gardens or the elegant Parc Monceau. Paris at night is unique – but especially so at this time of year, when the Champs Elysées is aglow with Christmas lights and the Avenue Montaigne with its designer shops is decorated with such panache! And don't forget to see the Eiffel Tower – gloriously illuminated with special Christmas lights!
  
  You may also wish to take in a cabaret show – after all cabaret is what Paris is famous for. Book the Moulin Rouge through our Representative – its Christmas shows are exceptional and we have reserved seats! And don't forget that there are all the places just outside the city, which we can arrange for you to visit: magnificent Chartres cathedral or a full day trip to Normandy!(Buffet Breakfast / Buffet Breakfast / Buffet Breakfast / Buffet Breakfast )



• Day 9- Depart Paris You will never regret having visited Paris at this time of year…it’s exciting, it’s romantic and it’s a great way to spend the Christmas period. As we transfer you back to Charles de Gaulle Airport you will only be thinking of how and when you will return! (Buffet Breakfast)
