Paris in the Summertime.....  NOW FULL

Details

Fancy a summer break that's actually affordable during school holidays?

Paris, city of lights, chaotic, vibrant, exciting, obscure and lively.

Comfort: We will be using public transport. Pack comfy shoes, suitable clothing & sunscreen. We may do a mad Parisian night of evening wear.
Train: Eurostar allows 2 bags to a maximum of 85cm. You may take sandwiches and food for the journey. Alcohol is allowed to the maximum of one bottle per person for consumption onboard. There is a buffet car.
Security: Notorious for pick pockets, please bring a suitable day bag you are comfortable to walk with in front of you. Gents no wallets in pockets. Please use a lock for suitcases and bring 2 safety pins with you.
Wonga: I would allow for 50 euros cash a day and a contingent of 50. Plus remember any ticket money for the Eiffel tower at 36euros.
