Quality
This indicates the overall quality of the tour operator's products. A low rating does not mean it is not good - it just means that it does not include as much, or perhaps is of a more standard quality than the higher quality tours. For example, a 3 star quality rating means that it is a more standard/economical tour, while 5 stars is a very luxurious tour that often includes a lot of amenities. -

Step into the shoes of a local and navigate Le Métro, your main mode of transportation for the week. Get to know this underground system with a local pro, giving you the freedom to set off later as you wish. First stop – the Louvre Museum.* The ethereal glass pyramid at the Louvre’s entrance serves as your gateway to another realm, where ancient sculptures lead to 19th-century canvases. Wander past and marvel at the palette progeny of Raphael and Botticelli before making your way to Da Vinci’s renowned Mona Lisa. On the next stop, your cultural lessons continue into the Quartier Latin, the intellectual and bohemian heart of Paris, known for its historic universities and lively streets. Then, stroll to the nearby Île de la Cité, the city’s ancient core, where the majestic Notre Dame Cathedral** stands – an 850-year-old Gothic masterpiece watching over the Seine. As your day wraps up, make the most of it, and admire the city skyline as you gently float down the Seine on a dinner cruise.

From the Hall of Mirrors to the opulent bedchamber of the Queen, take in the palace’s most famous sights. Afterward, a visit to Versailles wouldn’t be complete without venturing beyond the palace, so take some time to explore the local market.*** This evening, experience Parisian nightlife during an optional dinner at the dynamic Paradis Latin**** for a champagne-flowing, can-can kicking, music-driven night at the cabaret.
