Our journey includes a short sea crossing, from where you can usually see the famous White Cliffs and Dover Castle, as we sail towards France. On arrival in Paris our driver will take us directly to the Eiffel Tower and you will begin your tour with a spectacular sightseeing cruise on the River Seine, which starts and ends at the foot of the Eiffel Tower. At the end of the cruise there will be time to for a photo at the Eiffel Tower, followed by a coach sightseeing drive past the Arc de Triomphe, down the Champs Elysees, passing Place de la Concorde, the Louvre Museum and Notre Dame Cathedral before arriving at our hotel in the centre of Paris for check in.

Half day trip to the Palace & Gardens of Versailles - £29 - A fully guided half day coach tour to the stunning Palace & Gardens of Versailles.

Undoubtedly the grandest and most famous chateau in France. Price includes coach and entry to the Palace.

I would like to thank International Friends for the fabulous 3 day tour of Paris that I have just completed. The tour was very well organised and the entire trip was very professional. I cannot speak highly enough of the tour guide, Andrew, or the driver, Steve. Andrew has a great knowledge of history and facts and ensured we were well informed at all times. Steve's driving skills are very impressive and I am sure everyone on board felt safe in his capable hands.  Well done guys.  I will look forward to another tour on my next trip.
