Highlights

  • Traditional Pub Dinner - Public Houses have been a staple in the UK since the Middle Ages. Originally a gathering place for the members of the village, today they are part of the culture of visiting London. Traditional pub meals include, but are not limited to: Fish & Chips, Bangers & Mash (Sausages and mashed potatoes) and Meat Pies.
  • Built for the millennium and 443' tall, the London Eye stands as a new symbol of London along the Thames River. Reminiscent of a large Ferris Wheel with pods for passengers, the London Eye completes a full rotation in a leisurely 30 minutes. Encased in glass for 360degree views, the Eye offers standing guests a chance to see up and above London's skyline.
  • Covent Garden is a bustling market square filled with captivating shops, delicious restaurants, and meandering locals. Stroll along outside and perhaps you’ll glimpse a street performing group or head inside where rows of stalls sell their food and crafts.
  • Since 1994, the Eurostar Train has been connecting London and Paris in 2.25 hours. Starting at St Pancras Station in London, the high-speed train comfortably takes you through the countryside of England, under the English Channel, and ends its journey at Gare Du Nord in Paris.
  • Built in 1889 as part of the World's Fair by the architecture team of Gustave Eiffel, the Eiffel Tower is the symbol of Paris today. Located on the first level is 58 Tour Eiffel, a gourmet restaurant with stunning panoramic views of Paris. Since food is another big part of Parisian culture, the meal is several courses, beautifully displayed and accompanied with wine, coffee and tea.
  • Grasse is the centre of French perfumery. Visit a laboratory in one of the city's venerable perfume houses and learn the history and art of perfume-making. Try your "nose" at discerning particular scents and blend your own special fragrance.
