RAIL HOLIDAY
This 7-night rail holiday explores three distinct French cities: Paris, Strasbourg and Lyon. Start with two days in Paris. Fascinating‘ quartiers’ to visit include Le Marais with bars and restaurants, Saint Germain, once the hangout for intellectuals such as Ernest Hemmingway, and Montmartre, with its bohemian atmosphere. Then take a fast TGV to Strasbourg, the capital of Alsace, and a vibrant city on the banks of the river Rhine. Spend time exploring the cobbled streets of the old quarter and the gothic cathedral of Notre Dame. Seasonal markets are famous here. Your final destination is gastronomic Lyon.
