A day at leisure to shop or relax in the Tuilleries gardens or why not take the optional excursion to the Palace of Louis XIV at Versailles. Overnight at the Scribe Hotel. From the comfort of our first class reserved seats, we see the countryside fly past until we enter Switzerland. We arrive in Geneva and have an orientation tour of the town. Then we drive into the heart of Switzerland, arriving in Lucerne in the late afternoon.
Dinner is at our hotel.
Overnight at the Grand Hotel National. This morning we have an orientation tour of this delightful town. The balance of the day is free to enjoy this beautiful medieval town as you please. Lucerne itself is ringed by old stone defensive walls, and lined with cobbled streets connected by covered wooden bridges. You can take a boat ride on the lake, ascend a mountain by train, or shop for watches in town.
