About the Destination

Paris, France

It won’t take you long to fall head over heels for the City of Lights. Whether walking through the romantic narrow streets of the Latin Quarter or the robust glimmering avenue of the Champs-Élysées, Paris will spark the energy inside your soul.

Discover the remarkable artistic wonders inside the Louvre and see for yourself what’s behind the Mona Lisa’s mysterious smile. Traipse in the footsteps of Pablo Pocasso and Ernest Hemingway in Montmartre and grab a photo of the world famous Moulin Rouge.

Stand below the enormous iron arches at the bottom of the Eiffel Tower and take in the majesty of the city’s quintessential symbol.

Whether it be spring, summer, fall or winter, there’s never a bad time to fall in love with the European treasure that is: Paris

France – Battlefields and Canadian History

A number of the most significant events in Canadian history took place on the battlefields of France. Feel the flames of Canadian patriotism as you stand at the base of the Canadian National Vimy Memorial, planted on Canadian soil, a gift from France after WWI. Absorb the grandeur of the Palace of Versailles and enter the Hall of Mirrors to walk among the giants who negotiated and signed the 1919 Treaty of Versailles, sealing the end of the First World War. Walk the shores of Normandy Beach, where Canadians stormed the coastline in the most critical hours of D-Day. Pay respects to the unknown soldiers who sacrificed their lives for the freedom of Canadian citizens on the vast green fields of Bény-sur-Mer Canadian War Cemetery.

Nice and Monaco

The city of Nice is a popular destination for locals and tourists alike, located in the French Riviera on the coast of the Mediterranean Sea. Sunbathe on one of the many beaches, cool down in the blue waters of the Sea, or eat local specialties like bouillabaisse. Take a short ride into the Principality of Monaco to the city on Monte Carlo, or journey atop of the Rock of Monaco for breath taking views of the Mediterranean Sea below.
