Christmas is a magical time in the “City of Lights”! Imagine strolling through the quaint streets lined with lights, sipping vin chaud to keep your fingers warm, and look up to see the Eiffel Tower sparkling. Intersperse these moments with holiday shopping, some off-the-beaten path sightseeing, gourmet meals, plenty of Christmas markets, and a day trip to a famous Christmas town, and you are set up for a fabulous time!

Hope you are well rested because Paris is putting you to work.

When it is complete, you can enjoy the fruits of your labor for lunch with a glass of wine. Then you will head back to the hotel to relax before an evening concert (if we’re able to snag tickets to this highly popular holiday tradition! Depending on schedule, this could also occur Friday night).
