If like me, you are an independent traveller who seeks adventure, adores culture, antiquities, history and getting value for money, you may find this short city explorer tour most enjoyable. This city tour is an excerpt from one of my longer European Grand Tour ebooks (Tour 2 - Paris, Barcelona, Girona & Coastal Resorts of the Costa Brava) and I put the itinerary together for myself. I found that visiting a city for a short time gives me a taste
of that city and helped me decide whether or not to return for a longer future stay. I find some Cities have the right feeling for me and I feel comfortable and at home
in them, others I must admit, despite several visits, I cannot take to. You, I am sure, will experience this for yourself as you explore.
I travelled alone on this tour, but there is no reason why couples, families or groups could not undertake and enjoy it, every bit as much as I did.
You can make the tour as cheap or expensive as you wish by your own choice of accommodation, restaurants and methods of transport. To assist, as I guide, I have mentioned the accommodations and transport facilities I used, you of course are at liberty to use or amend these to suit your own tastes and requirements.
You can tailor the tour to suit yourself by:
- changing venues and incorporating ones that have particular interest to yourself
- changing the number of days you spend in the city
In order to maximise my time, I usually decide which venues I wish to visit before I go on holiday and group them due to their location and opening times. I usually leave a couple of hours free though each day to explore, shop or just chill out
. You will find you will need to factor in chilling out
time each day, particularly in large busy cities, to avoid culture overload
and fatigue. I hope you find the tour to be fun and not too gruelling
Please note however, I am a quick walker and tend to get round Museums and Galleries very quickly, particularly as I home in
only on the items which I find of interest (I research where these are in the museum/gallery before I go to save time. Most websites have a map of their venues to enable you to find the items you most wish to see). You may wish to spend more time in certain Museums, Galleries, shopping or merely chilling out than I did and need to factor this in when designing your own itinerary of venues to visit.
I was able to take the first flight of the day outward (around 6am) and the last flight of the day on return (around 9pm), which gave me four full days in Paris. Depending on the airport you are flying from and the flight times from your airport you may find you may wish to book an extra night to get four full days in Paris or alternatively tailor/condense this tour to suit your timescales.
