Paris
     Bonjour, Paris! During your sightseeing in the City of
     Light, get a taste of Parisian style as you ride down the
     Champs-Élysées, an elegant boulevard packed with
     high-fashion boutiques. Pass the Place de la Concorde
     and the Arc de Triomphe and strike a pose in front
     of the Eiffel Tower. At the École Militaire, see where a
     promising young Napoleon launched his rise to power.
     I.M. Pei’s iconic glass pyramid marks the entrance to
     the renowned Louvre, home to treasures like Leonardo
     da Vinci’s Mona Lisa. Then, travel to the Notre Dame
     Cathedral and admire its sculptured façade, stained-
     glass rose windows and seemingly weightless vaulted
     ceilings.

                                                                                                        Louvre | Paris, France

                                                                  London

                                                                  greet you at every turn. A local guide introduces you to

                                                                  designed by Sir Christopher Wren. Check out the lively
                                                                  five-way intersection at Piccadilly Circus as well as Hyde

                                                                  witness the ceremonial Changing of the Guard. Finally,

     Tower Bridge | London, England

     Venice
     Crisscrossed with romantic bridges and laced with
     history, Venice boasts some of the world’s finest art and
     architecture. On your sightseeing tour of the Floating
     City, see gondolas glide down the Grand Canal before
     stopping in St. Mark’s Square. Look for the golden
     weathervane, which resembles the archangel Gabriel,
     atop the 323-foot Campanile (Bell Tower). Attend a glass-
     blowing demonstration and watch expert craftsmen spin
     molten-hot wares. At the pink-and-white Doge’s Palace,
     see where mighty Venetian dukes once ruled. Stroll over
     the Bridge of Sighs, which links the palace to a prison.
     As they crossed the bridge, prisoners supposedly sighed
     with perfect sadness as they regarded their beautiful city
     for the last time.

                                                                                                      Gondolier | Venice, Italy
