London & Paris Tour with Deluxe or Classic Budget Hotels and Optional Extensions.

London. Paris. As a Traveler.

The Authentic. Unseen by the throngs of tourists from cruise ships & buses.

The traveler was active; he went strenuously in search of people, of adventure, of experience. The tourist is passive; he expects interesting things to happen to him. He goes “sight-seeing.” ~ Daniel J. Boorstin Dear friend and fellow traveler: I would like to extend my personal invitation for you to see the authentic Europe as a traveler. Join me on the trip of a lifetime, and one you won’t soon forget. If you’ve ever been to London, Paris or any of the other extension cities offered on this tour (Rome, Prague, Amsterdam, Normandy, or Barcelona), then you can relate to the above sentiment - these cities leave a lasting impression on travelers.

Once you’ve been, it never quite leaves you. It

becomes a part of your very being, always there, whispering to you like a long-lost friend, wanting you to stop in for a visit.

And if you’ve never been, then you only have to imagine places like the Colosseum in Rome, the Eiffel Tower of Paris, or walking the streets of London, to awaken inside of you the part that longs to see and experience a place where history is so alive, it speaks to you from every plaza, every museum, and even the very stones beneath your feet.

Frances Mayes wrote, “…most trips have an underlying quest. We’re looking for something. What? Fun, escape, adventure-but then what?”

Everyone travels for different reasons, but my question for you would be: what are you looking for?

And, no matter what the answer to that may be, I can guarantee one thing-this trip can be lifechanging. To experience another culture, to open your eyes to another part of the world, to step in another’s shoes, if even for a few days, it changes you, even if only a little.

Come, if you dare, and you may just leave with a little bit of Europe’s grand capitals etched on your soul as well.

I do look forward to traveling with you to Europe. Please drop me a line with any questions you might have!

Sincerely,

Mark Story, Program Director, Story Land & Sea Tours Host of Mark Story World Adventures SMALL GROUP TOUR
