Paris and London from Avignon
Independent rail trip to Paris and London from Avignon
Railbookers operates this 5-day, 4-night independent rail package that pairs Paris and London, positioned as an add-on to a Rhone River cruise that ends in Avignon. Travelers spend two nights in the 'magical City of Light,' Paris, then take the Eurostar train under the English Channel to London for two more nights among the 'famous sights and sounds' of what the description calls the Swinging City. Because this is an independent package, travelers arrange their own sightseeing and pace in each city rather than following a tour guide, and the even two-night split in each capital gives the trip a relaxed, unhurried pace rather than a string of one-night stops. This trip suits travelers who have just finished a river cruise ending in Avignon and want to extend their time in Europe, as well as anyone looking for a short independent rail trip between two major capitals.
