    Although my flight was 2 hours delayed due to weather, the paid transport from the airport was there to pick me up from CDG airport-really appreciated that. The itinerary of 3 sites a day was excellent-always something new to see, with good variety and WELL paced. Mike, our guide was excellent-very knowledgeable, caring and got us to sites BEFORE crowds (e.g. Memorial). Mike’s coordination with our driver, Francesco, was good. Suggestions for meals that were not included, were given for us to try local dishes (e.g. at the Cat Cafe). Accommodations were satisfactory. A/C should be at every hotel due to the heat.
