France · 6-DAY EXPERIENCES
This is the shortlist you would send a friend: 3 6-day experiences that hold up, each with its price, its verdict and the one thing to know before you commit.
Use a 2, 4, or 6-day Paris Museum Pass for free entry to more than 60 museums and monuments, including the Louvre, Orsay, Arc de Triomphe, Versailles, and Sainte-Chapelle. Pick up the pass near the Louvre, reserve required time slots in advance, and add a Seine cruise if you choose that option.
“Loved it. Saved money and time both in visiting hundreds of museums in Paris.”
Choose a 2-, 4-, or 6-day Paris Museum Pass for entry to permanent collections at major museums, monuments, and châteaux. You receive the digital pass by email and can get help arranging free time slots for the Louvre, Versailles, Orangerie, and Sainte-Chapelle, including support from Rachid and his team.
“We used the 4-day pass to visit the Louvre, the Musee D'Orsay, the Rodin Museum, and the Musee L'Orangerie. We had to separately book a scheduled time to visit the Louvre and Musee L'Orangerie, but it was easy to do with the pass. We were able to skip the lines and enter the museums quite easily. A great thing to get if you plan to visit many museums during the course of your visit.”
At the French Dining School in Kerrouet, chef Poul Jensen teaches hands-on French cooking to groups of up to eight. Host Niall O’Reilly handles meals, drinks, local advice, and the easygoing rhythm. You cook four-course dinners and three-course lunches, with one market or sightseeing day.
“An absolute gem. The experience is educational, entertaining, enriching and fun...along with being incredibly delicious. Paul (chef) and Nioll (chief entertainment officer) graciously accommodate students of all skill levels and create an experience that is truly unique that will be remembered for a lifetime. You will walk in a little nervous and walk out with a cohort of new friends and fantastic new recipes to bring home to your old friends.”
