> What's included: All transport, 3 nights hostel accommodation, all breakfasts, Xmas lunch, Welcome dinner and drink, Bike tour & River cruise, Trip to Palace of Versailles with picnic lunch, Paris night tour & the gorgeous Busabout guide and driver (Mistletoe all round?).
We generally dont like to blow our own trumpet but our Operations boys have come up trumps with our Festive trips - This trip has over €70 worth of inclusions that our closest competitor doesn't have.
Picture yourself on the deck of the famous “bateau” cruising along the Seine river, admire this breath-taking city from the summit of the Eiffel tower, visit the world-famous Palace of Versailles whilst munching on your Christmas Day picnic (just to keep you going to Xmas lunch!) or do your own thing and sip coffee whilst watching the Parisians glide by. If you really want to make the most of your Parisian experience then bring your party clothes and join us at the Moulin Rouge for our great final night Optional. Sip Champagne and enjoy the spectacular Moulin Rouge (whilst imagining Ewan Macgregor singing to you).

Day 1 - 24th Dec
Depart London 7:30am
Today we have an early start as we get set to say goodbye to London and jump on the coach to Paris. Not any coach though, we’ll be taking you across the channel in style in one of our gorgeous blue buses. While you put the feet up, recline and get ready for the festivities of the next few days, our guide will be giving you the inside track and history of this cultural capital, providing all the tips and tricks to make this one of your best Xmas breaks ever.
After a quick trip across the channel we’ll be arriving into Paris at about 17:30 where we’ll get you checked into St Christopher’s Paris, the nicest and newest kid on the block which is more like a hotel than a hostel. Once you’ve settled in we’ll all sit down for a generous two course dinner, enjoy a drink, then kick things of properly by jumping back on the coach and taking part in our guides own ‘Paris by night’ tour, taking in all the sights this great city has to offer.
For those that are still feeling up to it we’ll be having a nightcap (or three) back at the hostel afterwards.
Day 2 - 25th Dec
Xmas day! Time to sit down with all your new friends and enjoy a great breakfast before we get out and about in this breathtaking city. Today you’ll have free time phone the folks back home & open your presents from home beofre we head out to the palace of Versailles for a wander round the spectacular gardens where for a mid-morning snack your guide will arrange a picnic in the palace gardens.
After Vesailles we'll head back to the hostel and get ready for our Xmas feast. Our good friends at St Christopher’s will be serving a traditional roast meal with all the trimmings (and a few bottles of red wine to wash it all down).
After dinner it’s time to party! We will be arranging some good old Xmas festivities for everyone to get involved in. Of course you have the option to do your own thing also, perhaps venture back into the city? The choice is yours...
Day 3 - 26th Dec
After a breakfast of freshly baked baguettes and strong coffee we’ll be back on the bus and heading to probably the most iconic structure in the world. The Eiffel tower attracts some 5.8 million people a year who climb to the top for the best view Paris has to offer. After taking a memory card worth of photo’s we’ll be jumping on a fat tyre bike and seeing Paris from the ground, weaving our way through the multitude of tiny streets and back alleys before boarding a river boat to see Paris from the water. After a huge day of sightseeing the day just keeps getting better! This evening we’ll be treated to a meal at La Marmite (optional extra), before venturing to the Sacre Coeur, a famous Roman Catholic basilica which sits on top of the Montmartre hill, the highest point of the city.
And still there's more! Upon our descent from Montmartre, we'll be passing through the famous Paris red-light district and seeing the traditional French can-can at the Moulin rouge (optional extra).
Day 4 - 27th Dec
Time to say ‘Au revoir!’ to Paris as we make our way back to London. Estimated arrival into Victoria will be approximately 17:00.
