Easter in Paris and Disneyland

A travel programme rather than a taught course. It consists of a half-day sightseeing tour of the city, an evening illuminated boat trip on the Seine, a visit to Sacre-Coeur with entry to the tower and the crypt together with the Montmartre artists’ quarter, and a trip to the park and palace of Versailles — or, for an extra charge and with a minimum group size, a day at Disneyland Paris with transfer and ticket instead. All transfers within the sightseeing programme are included.

The package covers three nights at the ibis hotel Porte de Montmartre in three-bed rooms with shower, WC and satellite TV, a French breakfast buffet, return travel by modern coach with one overnight leg on the way home, the half-day sightseeing tour, the evening boat trip on the Seine, Sacre-Coeur with entry to the tower and the crypt plus Montmartre, the trip to the park and palace of Versailles, all transfers within the sightseeing programme, experienced tour leadership and supervision, and insolvency insurance. A double room is available for a surcharge, and Disneyland Paris can be booked in place of Versailles for an extra charge.

The ibis hotel Porte de Montmartre, on the northern edge of the city. Rooms sleep three and have a shower and WC and satellite television. A double room can be booked for a surcharge.

A French breakfast buffet at the hotel. Other meals are not part of the package. Special dietary requirements should be stated when booking.

A half-day sightseeing tour of the city, an evening illuminated boat trip on the Seine, Sacre-Coeur with entry to the tower and the crypt and a walk through the Montmartre artists’ quarter, and a trip to the park and palace of Versailles. A day at Disneyland Paris with transfer and entry ticket can be booked instead for an extra charge, subject to a minimum number of participants. Further excursions and extras can be booked locally; the operator publishes their description about four weeks before departure.

The hotel is the group’s base at Porte de Montmartre; the operator publishes no further facilities for it beyond the rooms and the breakfast buffet.

Paris in spring, when the parks come into bloom and the river fills with light in the evening — a short, dense city break built around the landmarks every first-time visitor wants to see. The supervision ratio is about one supervisor to twenty participants. The operator states that this trip is not suitable for participants with reduced mobility.
