17 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), Rouen (Cathedrale Notre-Dame de Rouen & Musee des Beaux-Arts de Rouen) and Palace of Versailles (in Versailles). There's lots more to do: make a trip to Louvre Museum, take a stroll through Le Marais, contemplate the long history of Eiffel Tower, and get a taste of the local shopping with Champs-Elysees.
