We'll be given a guided tour of the palace and visit the historic (and huge) Hall of Mirrors and the lovely gardens. This afternoon we are back in the center of Paris and a tour of the massive museum, the Louvre.

We leave Paris this morning via train for Avignon, known also as the "city of popes". We'll visit the Palais de Papes (Papal Palace) which was built in the 14th century. The narrow streets of this old town feature cafes, street vendors and entertainers. Our motor coach meets up with us in Avignon and takes us to southeastern France and the sophisticated town of Aix-en-Provence. After settling in at our hotel, we'll have a relaxing dinner and enjoy the sounds of a local music festival. Overnight Aix-en-Provence. Breakfast and Dinner included.

Provence was once the site of many such fortified towns featuring Huguenot meeting places and schools. We'll visit the market, the seminary and the renovated studio of impressionist Paul Cezanne.
