Paris, France
  • Paris, France
A choice of excursions this morning includes a visit to the impressive Musee de Cluny in the lively Latin Quarter. Built atop the ruins of a second-century Roman bath, it houses one of the world's finest collections of French medieval art. A guided tour reveals the famous Lady and the Unicorn tapestries, dating to the 1500s and a showcase for the five senses: touch, taste, smell, hearing, and sight. Or, join a local guide for a visit to Gothic Sainte-Chapelle on the Ile de la Cite, a royal chapel enshrined within the city's 13th-century Palais de Justice. The chapel, a vision of story-telling stained-glass windows, was conceived by Louis IX to house his personal collection of holy relics, including the famous Holy Crown. Enjoy lunch onboard your riverboat, then join your Tauck director for a visit to a Christmas market, where more Parisian treats await. Sample hot mulled wine (vin chaud), roasted chestnuts, and delicious warm from the oven baguettes, sausages, cheese, and chocolates while you view trees aglow with lights, beautiful displays of arts and crafts, festive Christmas decorations, regional food specialties, fine wines, and other sights that dazzle you until well into the night. Dine onboard ship tonight at your leisure and join your fellow guests in the lounge for a musical performance. ...

Indulge in a leisurely morning today as you take the opportunity to sleep in or watch Paris wake up, cafe in hand, from aboard your riverboat. Enjoy a holiday brunch before driving to the moated Chateau de Vaux-le-Vicomte in nearby Maincy for lunch and an afternoon of royal delights. Built by the ill-fated finance minister to King Louis XIV and the inspiration for the Chateau de Versailles and numerous palaces across Europe, the beautiful chateau showcases the work of three of the greatest architects, designers, and landscape gardeners of France's prosperous "Grand Siecle", the same team that the King later called upon to design his palace at Versailles. Boasting decors that have remained intact since the 17th century, the 100+-room chateau, surprisingly intimate, has been owned by the same family for five generations and remains France's largest private chateau and estate. Wander through its grand salons and apartments, exquisitely decorated for the holidays, stroll through its magnificent formal gardens as you like, and enjoy a private afternoon tea at the chateau before returning to the riverboat for dinner. ...
