France never fails to surprise and delight. This Glenton holiday has been lovingly
designed to showcase the highlights of this most sophisticated and exciting of
cities. Sail along the Seine and feast your eyes on the endless parade of iconic
sights such as the Eiffel Tower, l’Arc de Triomphe and the stunning twelfth
century cathedral Notre Dame de Paris. Learn the secrets of fine scents at the
famous Fragonard Perfumery. See the city at its most spectacular on our
Illuminations Tour that shows you why Paris is known worldwide as the “City of
Light”. As if all that wasn’t enough, we even include a night where we wine and

gardens at Giverny that inspired some of the greatest works of the Impressionist
painter Claude Monet. As the French say, bonnes vacances! |

-Romance of the Rhine Valley
|
| |
| Germany’s favourite holiday destination, the Rhine Valley is a land of myths and
legends where ancient castles crown the hillsides and vineyards cling to the
slopes above enchanting riverside towns. The best way to appreciate this
spectacular region is from the river itself yet many Glentoneers have told us they
love the idea of river cruising but would rather spend their nights on dry land. For
that reason we designed this holiday that combines the best of both worlds –
leisurely days gliding along the river followed by nights in a friendly traditional
family run hotel. |
