ITINERARY

Paris
Bonsoir, enchantée, welcome to Paris! Get ready for 7 dreamy days of French style, sights and sips. We’ll kick off with a welcome dinner (cuz everyone’s serious about dinner in Paris!) before hopping on our coach for a tour of the city, stopping by at iconic spots that 'Emily' visits in the show - the Pantheon and ofc, the Eiffel Tower. And to top it all off (literally), you’ll visit the Montparnasse Tower for show-stopping views. First nights are rarely this fascinating.

Paris & Versailles
Today, we’ll hit up a Parisian patisserie for a pain au chocolat before checking out some of the most iconic filming locations of the show. You’ll be feeling like you’re on set in no time. Look at you, you’re getting more French by the day. This afternoon, we’ll check out Versailles Gardens. Plus, you have the chance to check out the Palace - the iconic home of an even more iconic fashion show. Back in the City of Love, the only thing on our agenda tonight is replaying all our magical moments in Paris, and showing them off to the world. #OhCrepe

Paris to Normandy
Au revoir, Paris. Next stop? The historical region of Normandy (that’s also the home of a certain handsome chef). We’ll stop by for lunch in the quaint mediaeval town of Bayeux. Then you’ll visit historic D-Day Landing Beaches & all its memorials. A quick tour of the Omaha Museum will fill you in on their significance. And a short drive later, we’ll reach Caen AKA our home for the night. You’ve got plenty of restaurants to choose from for dinner tonight. Something tells us you’ll be eating a lot of apples here…

Normandy to Orleans via Mont Saint Michel and Château de Chambord
Morning, heroes. Today’s all about jaw-dropping views. So freshen up, feast on breakfast and hop on! This beautiful island (topped with a charming Abbey) will have you swooning over its unique silhouette. After some free time to explore the enchanting streets and get your photo dump sorted, we’ll head on to our next stop. Cameras at the ready! We’re in Loire Valley AKA the land of famous Châteaus. Best part? You have the chance to visit THE most charming one out here - Château de Chambord. The sun’s about to set. Tummies are starting to grumble. Surprise! Dinner’s on us tonight. So fuel up before we head out again to discover Orlean’s historical hotspots.

Orleans to Reims via Champagne Region
Adieu, Orléans. The home of elegant bubbles awaits us. Raise a toast, because today you have the chance to discover a historical Champagne house on a guided tour and taste some of that fizzy goodness too, ofc! (Don’t worry, you won’t have to sketch out a last-minute marketing plan to promote it…) Time to tick another delightful French city off our list. Welcome to Reims! After checking into our hotel for the night, we’ll head out to get oriented with the city’s sights (including the UNESCO World Heritage Site of the Notre Dame Cathedral).

Reims to Paris
Oh, Reims - you’ve been a dream. But Paris is waiting for us… Wanna have a piece of Paris to take wherever you go? How ‘bout creating your very own signature scent? Yep, we’re visiting a French perfumery today. Aaand the last thing to tick off our bucket list is a classic Parisian cabaret show. Oh, and you’ll also get to go behind the scenes, (just like 'Emily').

Paris
The French may be romantics. But they’re also realists. And the reality is that our French fantasy has come to an end (sob). Don’t worry, we’ll be back for another season. Rome sure does sound good right now *wink wink*.
