(B, D)

Thursday 21 March LOUVRE This morning art expert Angus Haldane joins us for a talk in the hotel before we set forth to explore the vast collection at the Louvre museum, which dates from the Middle Ages to 1848. The building has a fascinating history, having started as a fortified enclosure in 1190 on the outskirts of the city and being enlarged in size by successive rulers, including two , into the world’s premiere art gallery. The latest addition, the superb pyramid, was completed in 1989. To compliment the ‘high art’ of the Louvre you might also like to visit the nearby Musée des Arts Décoratifs, which offers an extraordinary collection of furniture, objets d’art, tapestries, ceramics, jewellery and toys from the Middle Ages to today. (B)

Friday 22 March Musée d’orsay and Musée Rodin Angus Haldene joins us for a second talk before we venture to the Musée d’Orsay. When it was built in 1900, painter Edmund

Detaille declared that the Gare d’Orsay looked like a palace of fine art. How appropriate that one of his paintings is now part of the exceptional collection at the Musée d’Orsay, the national museum of 19th century art. Our visit takes a thematic approach following the development of painting from the early academic paintings to the celebrated work of the Impressionists. After lunch at the fabulous museum restaurant, our next stop is the nearby Musée Rodin which underwent an enormous renovation some years back that included the building and grounds, to the Rodin sculptures themselves restored and re-presented. (B, L)

Saturday 23 march MARAIS AND MAISON VICTOR HUGO Our walking tour today takes in Le Marais on the right bank of the , an area that has long been the aristocratic heart of the city and houses many outstanding buildings of historic and architectural importance. It is here, on the , that we find the Maison de Victor Hugo, his apartment between the years of 1832-48, an illustration of the life of the writer through his three major stages (before, during and after his exile in Guernsey). The afternoon is at leisure before we enjoy a performance of Verdi’s Otello at the modern Opéra Bastille, a striking building which was the ‘Grand Project’ of French President, François Mitterrand. (B)

Sunday 24 march Markets and versailles This morning we head out to the royal chateau of Versailles on the fast RER train. Before commencing our palace visit we enjoy the sensory delight of a walk around the bustling open-air markets here, a market that is arguably worth the visit alone! Our tour of the former hunting lodge which Louis XIV transformed into the seat of French political power in 1682, encompasses the gardens and the imposing interiors of rooms like the Hall of Mirrors, terminating in the vast 19th century Gallery of Battles, a grandiose picture gallery devoted to the history of France. After a break for lunch in the area adjacent to the chateau there is some free time for individual exploration of the lovely gardens of the estate. As our visit is on a weekend the magnificent fountains will be on show. (B)

Monday 25 march Delacroix and cabaret We cross the river to Saint Germain des Près to visit a gem of a museum, often overlooked by the crowds, the Musée National Eugène Delacroix. Dedicated to the 19th century painter and housing a well curated collection of over a thousand of his works and objects that belonged to him, the space belongs to a bygone era and is an apartment he clearly loved, with a charming garden. After our visit we enjoy a fine macaron from the nearby Ladurée patisserie before free time to enjoy a walk along the Seine or indulge in a spot of shopping. This evening

we meet again to enjoy some iconic Parisian cabaret at an intimate, café chantant. (B)

Tuesday 26 march Montmartre and romanticism Today we venture to the north of the city to another exceptional house museum, the Musée de la Vie Romantique. The former abode of painter Ary Scheffer, where George Sand, Delacroix and other friends would meet. it is a perfect example of an 1830’s hôtel particulier, or aristocratic town house. The museum recreates a harmonious historical setting evoking the romantic period and a peaceful haven in busy Pigalle. Set at the foot of the Montmartre hill, it is the perfect start to a walking tour of the iconic arrondissement with its atmospheric staircases leading up to the fabulous Sacré Coeur Basilica, where we can delight in fabulous views over the city. Tonight, we enjoy France’s finest seafood at David Bottreau’s Michelin starred, Les Fables de la Fontaine. (B, D)

Wednesday 27 march reims and the champagne region Our train journey today takes us into the heart of France’s Champagne region, Reims, where we enjoy a walking tour of this beautiful town including the UNESCO world heritage listed High Gothic cathedral, Notre-Dame de Reims. For over 1000 years French monarchs were crowned here and the cathedral is recognised worldwide as one of the defining models of Gothic art. Reims was the seat of the archbishop and we can visit his residence at the nearby Palais du Tau. Close by we visit one of the fine champagne houses for a tasting and lunch before returning to Paris in the mid-afternoon. (B, L)

Thursday 28 march Picasso and quai branly We start the day with a visit to the recently renovated and expanded Musée Picasso, a collection which houses over 5000 of his works. Picasso spent many years in Paris, and the museum traces the artist’s creative process through the most complete selection of work painted, carved, engraved and drawn by him. After a break for lunch we head to the Musée du Quai Branly, a collection which would have interested Picasso in his African Period: the museum showcases a vast collection of indigenous art and culture from Africa, Asia, Oceania and the Americas and was the ‘Grand Project’ of French President, Jacques Chirac. (B)

Friday 29 march Giverny and L’ORANGERIE Monet lived in his house at Giverny from 1883 until his death in 1926 and painted his famed water lily series here. Instead of following a guided tour, we will immerse ourselves in the experience of the gardens. There are no paintings by Monet at the garden, but on our return to the centre of Paris we visit the

Tonight, we will attend a piano recital by Alexander Melnikov at the beautiful art deco Théâtre des Champs Elysées. (B)

Saturday 30 march musee d’ART MODERNE We have scheduled a talk today from art expert Angus Haldane in preparation for our museum visits of the next two days. Today we visit the Musée d’Art Moderne, which opened in 1961 in the Palais de Tokyo. The permanent collection covers the major art trends of the 20th century and houses works by Picasso, Gris, Matisse and Giacometti. From here it is a short walk across the Seine to enjoy the famed Tour d’Eiffel, the symbol of the capital which stands at 324m tall and was built for the Universal Exposition of 1889. In the afternoon we enjoy a private guided tour at the historic Palais Garnier, in preparation for enjoying tonight’s performance: the closing night of Don Pasquale by Donizetti. (B)

Sunday 31 march Pompidou centre Our focus today is the National Museum of Art, located in the Pompidou Centre. This was one of the first of Paris’ modernist buildings, built partly in response to the youth revolution of 1968 and intended to show that France could embrace modernity. This collection takes on the narrative of modern art from that of the Orsay; from 1900 to the present. It is rich in the classics of Modern Art- the Fauves, Cubists and Surrealists but also constantly renews itself, exposing visitors to aspects of recent art that may be less familiar. After a break for lunch we visit the little-known collection at the Musée des Arts et Métiers. The Museum was refurbished in 2000 and exhibits thousands of inventions and technological innovations from across the ages. We focus on the museum’s 150 ‘flagship objects’ which are fascinating and fun. (B)

Monday 1 April Gehry in the bois de Boulogne Located along the western edge of the 16th arrondissement, the Bois de Boulogne is the second largest park in the city. It contains a variety of areas to explore, several lakes, magnificent gardens and the most recent addition, the Fondation Louis Vuitton, designed by internationally renowned architect, Frank Gehry. The curved glass of the twelve sails forms in Gehry’s words, ‘a magnificent vessel symbolising the cultural calling of France’. After free time in the park we return to the hotel and the rest of the afternoon is at leisure before our farewell dinner at Michelin starred restaurant Garance, with chef Guillaume Iskandar and manager/sommelier Guillaume Muller. Their tenet is ‘Garance uninhibits wine and gastronomy’, so we may be in for a surprise! (B, D)

Moving Around Paris

To get around Paris we will use the taxis, walking and occasionally the metro, just like locals would! Some of our travel to outside Paris will be on RER train. Taxis and trains are faster than coaches and give us total flexibility in the program. Please note that there is a fair amount of walking on this tour and a moderate degree of fitness is required.

Weather on Tour

Weather in Paris is unpredictable. Usually the winter weather starts to improve in March, when Spring season is just around the corner. We would expect minimum temperatures to be around 9 degrees at night and up to 15 during the day. It is highly likely we will experience at least some rain so do bring waterproofs as well as a warm coat and layers.

About Academy Travel Each year Academy Travel organises around 60 journeys to Europe, the Mediterranean, Asia and the Americas, each focusing on a distinctive historical, artistic or cultural theme. The aim of every Academy Travel journey is to combine the pleasures of independent travel with the benefits and shared enjoyment of a group. Academy Travel is an Australian-owned travel company, founded in 2004. The company’s staff includes both academic experts and travel professionals with over two decades’ industry experience. We also have our own office in Rome which organises our tours in Western Europe. This means we have direct control over the selection of hotels, restaurants, coaches and local guides, guaranteeing superior quality.

Great itineraries Academy Travel works hard to create itineraries that provide a balanced experience – walking tours, museum and gallery visits, live performances, city and countryside. We’re proud to be constantly innovating, from opening up new destinations, creating tours around festivals and special exhibitions, to providing unrivalled depth in our residential tours.

Like-minded groups Over the years we’ve been in operation, we’ve developed a loyal band of Academy Travellers, some of whom have travelled with us more than 10 times. They say the small groups (maximum 20, average 17) and distinct themes of our tours attract like-minded travellers and create a relaxed, convivial atmosphere.

Long stays Feedback from our clients consistently tells us that creating itineraries with three and four-night stops, or even longer, is far more appealing that rushing from place to place. Wherever possible, we plan our tours around a limited number of stops, making your travels more relaxed and more meaningful.

Special Events A private viewing of the Sistine Chapel? Tickets to a sold-out concert by the Berlin Philharmonic? A world- famous art fair? Access to private homes and gardens? Behind-the-scenes visits? Many of our tours feature access to places and events that are usually not offered on most group tours.

Expert tour leaders We work closely with a team of academically qualified and highly experienced tour leaders. They don’t just ‘rattle off the facts’ – they help us plan our itineraries and, on tour, freely share their deep knowledge and genuine passion. Most of our tour leaders are still teaching at an advanced level and many are still undertaking academic research.

Years of experience Academy Travel was founded in 2004 by a team with decades of prior experience in small group travel. On average, our tour leaders have over 11 years’ experience, some with 25 or more years. To ensure quality, we have our own office in Rome, Italy and a network of trusted suppliers around the world.
