Welcome to Paris! Starting off with a bangin’ welcome dinner, you’ll get to know your crew at a local restaurant this evening. Then we’ll set sail on a Seine river cruise to see the City of Love sparkle in all its glory at night. This is what love at first sight feels like!
Paris
Cuisine and cabaret day. We'll start this morning with an optional patisserie walking tour, winding our way around the cutest bakeries in Paris, sampling dreamy pastries as we go. You've got some free time in afternoon. Then, it's off to a Paris cabaret show, with dinner and champagne to really switch on the sophistication.
Paris to Lausanne
Setting off on our first train ride of this trip, we’ll say goodbye to Paris this morning. It doesn’t take long for Lausanne to captivate you with its beauty. Luckily, you’ve got some free time to take it all in. Afterwards, you can join us for a seriously good Swiss Fondue dinner.
Lausanne to Milan
Yes, we know. The train ride is super comfy. But trust us, you don’t wanna sleep through this one. Today we’ll ride along the scenic Simplon rail route to Italy - passing by jaw-dropping vistas of lakes, castles and tunnels on the way. Hello Milan! The only thing on the agenda this afternoon is chilling. And possibly sipping aperitivo in Navigli (just like the locals). That’s how we roll.
Milan to Venice
It’s been short and sweet. With no time to waste, we’ll hop back on a train to see the world-famous floating city. Your bags? Drop ‘em at our hotel. Today, we’re riding a Motoscafo to the island. Later tonight, you'll have the chance to try traditional Venetian food right in its home.
Venice
You’ve got a free day today, folks. Choose to learn how to ride a gondola (taught by literal experts). Or just take your time exploring the island. Bored doesn’t exist here.
Venice to Rome
Venice, you’ve been very nice. But we’ve got one last Italian spot to tick off. Hop on! One look is all it takes for you to know why this place is loved by so many. This afternoon, we’ll tour Rome’s cobblestoned streets on foot. And if you’re still interested in more - a local guide will show you around the Colosseum and the Roman Forum. Dinner’s on us tonight. So come join us at a local restaurant for some soul-satisfying Italian food.
Rome
Historic spots, foodie shops, photo ops - you’re free to do whatever you want today. May we recommend a food tour to explore Rome's best restaurants with the group this evening? It’s your final full day of this trip after all…
Rome
All good things come to an end. And so does this trip. Bid your final farewells to your crew. But not before you munch on your final included breakfast (and reminisce of the best 9 days of your life!).
