2013 Tour Info

We will be traveling from March 24 to April 1, 2013. Our tour begins and ends in Paris where we will enjoy all of the famous sights everyone has been so anxious to see, including the Eiffel Tower, Sacre Coeur, the Arc de Triomphe, Versailles, the Louvre, Notre Dame, and Montmartre among others. We will also visit the city of Chartres with its beautiful cathedral filled with some of the most exquisite stained glass in the world, three different styles of royal castles in the Loire River Valley, the island monastery of Mont St. Michel, the restored pirate village of Saint Malo, Pointe du Hoc, the D-Day beaches, the American Cemetery, the touching Memorial to Peace in Caen, and the city of Rouen where Joan of Arc was burned at the stake many centuries ago. Plenty of opportunities to sample the delicious French cuisine, practice communicating in French, and experience traveling on the metro will also be available as well as many other memorable experiences.
