Amazing France (Alsace and Paris) 16th Mother / Daughter dream vacation by Clément!

France | Dec 27 - Jan 4, 2023

Seriously the most amazing staff and hotel with fantastic views of Paris! Great location and the Hotel really made our 16th Birthday celebration special! Highly recommend and walk the area, Montmartre is a very special place!

This hotel is in the perfect location for Colmar! The staff was lovely and the building was wonderful with its breakfast and courtyards. So many great stores, town views and restaurants all within walking distance!

The Alsace Safari for both days was absolutel perfection! Eric and Ana guided us through various towns, made us reservations for authentic lunches and gave us all the history we could take in. The personalization is unbelievable by Eric and perfect for the start of our vacation! I highly recommend this tour with Eric and Ana who want to see and hear all the important history in the region at the pace you want or need! They feel like Family now we will definitely use them again! Chrissy

See our prior full day tour review! We thoroughly enjoyed Eric and our time with him on the Alsace Safari!

Eric drove us and got us completely on the Train with time to spare with no hassles!

Highly recommend the night time tour and view, that was booked for us this was a very easy wonderful excursion.

Amazing, we were given the history and taken into the most amazing stores and assisted with the purchasing to carrying ur purchases during a little rain but she made it so easy and enjoyable!

We had the same guide as our Parisian Chic shopping tour which gave us even more comfort and enjoyment! The group tour is lovely for this as you will get to share more wonderful Latin Market items! It was a truly amazing group and such a fun way to eat and learn about the area!!

We were provided everything we needed and It was booked at the perfect time of day to try and avoid some of the crowd. The Louvre is of course huge and our self guided audio tour gave us what we needed. While this was on the bucket list I would say I’m glad it’s checked and next time I can’t wait to see some of the smaller museums that probably are better for certain art lovers!

Clemence our guide was absolutely charming, very knowledgeable as she was from or had lived in the area for many years! She was even kind enough to let us move our tour time an hour ahead bc we were running late! The path she takes you on is amazing starting at Sacré-Cœur Basilica giving us the beautiful church and St. Denis history that is sooo fascinating! The basilica is located at the summit of the butte Montmartre, the highest point in the city. The Stroll Through The Bohemian Village On The Hill. This most bohemian of Paris neighborhoods is known for its cobblestone streets, its village atmosphere, its nightlife, a big white church, and for the artists who found a home there more than a century ago. We definitely felt like this was a special treat to walk on the streets where famous artist once called home and such a wonderful villages!

Don’t miss this tour going by bike was the most amazing way to see the town, market, and the Versailles Palace 2,000 acre grounds! It was superbly planned and guided by Claire as her family is from their 3 generations at least and mother and grandmother still live there! She guided us to the market to purchase our picnic lunch on the palace grounds! Her knowledge of the town and the palace could not be beat!! Truly amazing guide and perfectly paced with plenty of time for lunch and wine and even a little cafe/wine before the palace. We never felt rushed or exhausted from the bike ride and would have never seen the massive grounds without the bikes!

The metro pass is necessary!!

Unfortunately we missed fitting this in but definitely saw it from the outside and was given the history by Clement in our itinerary !

Walking the markets is refreshing and amazing with all the sights and sounds! And the ability to taste anything around and stop for a cafe is perfect in this area!
