DISCOVER PARIS
6 or 8 days | France | Extension to France
The French take great pride in their country’s history, culture,
and contributions to Western thought, and it all culminates
in Paris. Your students will experience these qualities at
every turn—in the street artists’ portraits at Montmartre, the
masterpieces of the Louvre, and in the smell of fresh baguettes
from a corner bakery.

As you can see, your EF tour includes visits to the places you’ve
learned about in school. That’s a given. But its so much more
than that. Immersing yourself in new cultures—surrounded by
the people, the language, the food, the way of life—creates
inspirational moments that can’t be listed in an itinerary. They
can only be experienced.
And the experience begins long before you get your passport
stamped and meet your Tour Director in your arrival city. It
begins the moment you decide to go. Whether its connecting
with other travelers on Facebook, Twitter, or Instagram, or
delving deeper into your destinations with our personalized
learning experience, weShare, the excitement will hit you long
before you pack your suitcase.
When your group arrives abroad, everything is taken care of
so you can relax and enjoy the experience. Your full-time Tour
Director is with your group around the clock, handling local
transportation, hotels, and meals while also providing their own
insight into the local history and culture. Expert local guides
will lead your group on sightseeing tours, providing detailed
views on history, art, architecture, or anything you may have a
question about.
When your journey is over and youre unpacking your suitcase
at home, you’ll realize the benets of your life-changing
experience do not end. They have just begun.
YOU’RE GOING TO
EXPERIENCE IT.
Anyone can see the world.

Nobody does decadence like Louis XIV,
and there’s no better testament to this than
Versailles. Under the direction of the Sun King,
the château that began as a modest hunting
lodge exploded into one of the largest palaces
on earth. On your excursion to this lavish
estate, explore the state apartments of the king
and queen and the magnificent Hall of Mirrors.
Walk through the meticulously landscaped
gardens and marvel at dozens of ornate
fountains. Discover why Versailles was more
than just a vacation home: Louis XIV hosted
his royal court here to reign in their power and
prevent their political rise.

Chartres and the Loire Valley: Chartres

visited museum in the world. Built to defend
the city in the 13th century, today the Louvre
safeguards collections that span continents
and the ages. Enter by I.M. Pei’s glass pyramid,
considered a controversial addition by many
resident Parisians. Inside, discover Greek,
Roman, and Asian antiquities, as well as
precious objects from the Middle Ages. These
massive halls are home to over 35,000 objects,
including Leonardo da Vinci’s masterpiece, the
Mona Lisa. Be sure to get an up-close look at
