Description

Orientation in Paris

Live like a Parisian in a historic quartier of the French capital. Join locals in a cafe for a morning croissant before navigating the ancient avenues to the Champs Elysees, Arc de Triomphe, Eiffel Tower, and the Louvre. Spend the afternoon using your French to find the best traditional baguettes, cheeses, and local specialties for a picnic on the famous left bank of the Seine. Explore the Monmartre art district beneath the soaring spires of Sacre Coeur and dine at tiny cafes that serve regional specialties from across France. Master the Metro and venture across the city to take in an outdoor film at the summer cinema festival, or watch the sun set over the Jardins de Luxembourg.

Following your homestay, hop on a bike to experience the French countryside up close. During your Tour de Bretagne, you cycle 2540 miles a day. Along with your group and French cycling guides, explore medieval villages, majestic castles, and pristine beaches. Bicycles are provided.
