8 days in Paris Itinerary

A beautiful and romantic city fit for any itinerary, Paris brims with historic associations and remains vastly influential in the realms of culture, art, fashion, food and design.

Venture out of the city with trips to Fondation Claude Monet (in Giverny), Versailles (Palace of Versailles & The Trianons & The Hamlet) and Rouen (Cathedrale Notre-Dame de Rouen & Musee des Beaux-Arts de Rouen). There's still lots to do: explore the world behind art at Louvre Museum, admire the landmark architecture of Arc de Triomphe, stop by Montmartre, and examine the collection at Musee Rodin.
