Day 3 - Paris

Discover the highest point in the city, La Butte Montmartre, forever associated with the Bohemian lifestyles of the late 19th-century. Your guide leads you along the winding back streets leading to the 'Place du Tertre', where you witness artists painting quick-fire portraits. Walk up to the Sacré-Coeur Basilica for spectacular views over the city, before continuing to the intimate Moulin Rouge cabaret theatre, immortalised by the painter Toulouse-Lautrec, and the small 12th-century St Pierre church. Next, head the Montmartre Museum, where Renoir painted the Bal du Moulin de la Galette, hailed as one of his most important works. Finally, immerse yourself in the atmosphere of this exciting era as you enter the studio of the painter Suzanne Valadon, who lived and worked here with her son, Maurice Utrillo.

Day 6 - Brussels

In the High Middle Ages the city of Bruges was one of the richest ports in Europe, owing its vast wealth to the maritime cloth trade. However, with the silting of the seas, the city lapsed into a beautiful slumber, with its canals, cobbled streets, merchants' houses, churches and museums all perfectly preserved as one of the most magical cities in modern times. As you arrive in the city, your guide takes you for a stroll along the tree-lined canal streets, passing the Church of the Holy Blood, the Markt and its soaring belfry, one of the tallest and most beautiful in the whole of the Flanders region, as well as the medieval city hall and the Church of Our Lady, home to Michelangelo's superb marble sculpture of the Virgin and Child. Afterwards, embark on a public canal cruise to see Bruges from the picturesque waterways, relaxing as you take in the scenery from a new perspective.

Having enjoyed your lunch, spend some time at leisure to further explore the city, or, if you are an art lover, you may wish to pay a visit to the Groeningen Museum to witness one of the finest collections of Flemish painting around.
