Day 6 – Tour the palace at Château de Versailles Standing about an hour outside of Paris, Château de Versailles, one of the most extravagant palaces in Europe, virtually glitters with gold! During a guided tour this morning, you won’t be surprised to learn that Louis XIV spent a lot of money building this royal residence – it would cost more than $2 billion to build today. Hear stories about life in the palace, and stroll through its beautiful formal gardens. You’ll be back in Paris before lunch, where you can explore the city sights as you wish – you may want to check out Mona Lisa’s enigmatic smile at the Musée du Louvre, walk down the Champs-Elysées to the Arc de Triomphe, or stop in a traditional café for a sweet treat.

Day 7 – Visit Notre Dame and explore Montmartre Built on the site of a Roman temple, Notre Dame has been witness to the greatest events in Parisian history from its perch in the heart of the Ile de la Cité and the River Seine since the 12th century. You’ll have a chance to tour this majestic Gothic cathedral with a local expert today, seeing the grotesque gargoyles that peer down from ledges on the façade of the building, as well as the bell tower made famous by Quasimodo in The Hunchback of Notre Dame. Then it’s off for a visit to hilltop Montmartre, where for centuries Parisian street artists have flocked to draw, paint and sketch under the shadow of the grandiose white-domed Sacré-Coeur Basilica. A guided walking tour offers an opportunity to see them at work. Enjoy free time to explore this afternoon before our private farewell dinner cruise on the River Seine. Bid au revoir to Paris, illuminated under the soft glow of the city lights tonight. Meals BD
