(8 Days - Departs Daily on a Private Basis) Paris, Versailles, Cote d'Azur
This private luxury tour combines two of France’s most popular destinations: sophisticated Paris and the endlessly appealing Cote d’Azur.
Begin with four nights in Paris. With your own private guide, enjoy the very best of Paris according to your interests. First-time visitors may wish to tour major attractions such as Notre Dame Cathedral, Sainte-Chapelle, the Eiffel Tower, the Luxembourg and Tuileries Gardens, and major museums such as the Louvre and the Musee d'Orsay. Other possibilities include an epicurean tour; walking tours through the exclusive residential streets on Ile St-Louis, the old Jewish quarter in the Marais, the former art colony of Montmartre, the medieval streets of the Latin Quarter, or to Left Bank cafes made famous by poets and philosophers; and shopping for antiques in flea markets or haute couture in fashionable boutiques.
One day, enjoy a private excursion to Versailles to tour Louis XIV’s opulent palace, extensive gardens, and Hameau de la Reine, the mock hamlet created for Marie-Antoinette. One evening, enjoy a romantic gourmet dinner while cruising on the Seine River through the heart of Paris.
Next, continue to the Cote d’Azur for three nights in a luxurious hotel overlooking the Mediterranean Sea. With a private driver at your disposal, visit local towns such as Nice, Cannes, Eze, Grasse, Saint-Paul de Vence, Antibes or Monaco.
