Being in a new city is all about exploration and discovery. You wander the streets for hours, finding charming little alleyways, beautiful old buildings and bustling squares. In Paris, the possibilities for discovery are endless. This is such a unique city, with an amazing combination of exceptional beauty and charm, plus the excitement and vibrancy of a major metropolis. You get the feeling that you could wander these streets for a lifetime, and still never discover all of the secrets and hidden gems Paris has to offer.
The food culture in Paris is incredible. It is not only the number of restaurants that make it so special. It is the food stalls, the speciality food shops, the boulangeries. It is immediately clear that food, and eating very, very well, is an essential part of this culture. Which means we are very much at home. And that there is much indulgence ahead of us during this two week stay.
