ITALY

Who hasn’t dreamed of roaming the Tuscan countryside or marveling at Michelangelo’s David? Or gazing at the famous Duomo (cathedral) and the other treasures of Florence, the cradle of the Renaissance? Or imagining the days of ancient Rome while standing in the Coliseum or gazing up at the majesty of St. Peter’s Basilica…. Or sampling a different gelato every day? Or making such fast friends with the Italians that you won’t want to leave?

7 nights

LAUSANNE (SWITZERLAND) and FRANCE

A brief stay in the picturesque city of Lausanne, Switzerland will give you a taste of this gem on the north shores of Lake Geneva. Set among rolling hills covered in vineyards and looking across the lake at the majestic French Alps, Lausanne was home to the Durhams for a number of years. They’ll be sure you sample what Switzerland is known for: cheese and chocolate!

PARIS, the City of Lights, has probably inspired more songs and literature than any other city. Notre Dame cathedral, the Eiffel Tower, Musée d’Orsay, Montmartre and Sacré Coeur, the Arc de Triomphe, the Champs-Élysées…not to mention the obligatory sidewalk cafes, croissants, pastries, baguettes, cheese (oops, got a little carried away there)…. We’ll include a side trip to site of the Allied landing at Omaha Beach in Normandy and the magical tidal island of Le Mont-Saint-Michel, as well as the house and gardens of Impressionist artist Claude Monet in the Norman village of Giverny. And we think you’ll be surprised by the friendliness of the French!
