Meet up with your Contiki team in London before heading to the land of baguettes, cheese & escargot for a taste of how the French do Christmas.

On arrival get settled, then maybe head out to try some authentic French onion soup, escargot, salad Nicoise or foie gras & indulge in a typically French meal. Tonight we’ll take in the buzzing city vibes as you tour the city by coach, experiencing all the famous icons like the Arc de Triomphe, Eiffel Tower & see why Paris really is called the “City of Lights”. Lamp-lit bridges and cool little cafés give us a real taste of Paris’ romance.
