Delight in the National Art Galleries in Paris, France (Europe) for Seven Days & Six Nights at Le Royal Monceau, Raffles Paris with Economy Class Air for Two, Including Your Choice of a Private Tour of the Louvre Museum or the Musee d'Orsay

Le Royal Monceau offers the elegance, prestige, luxury, and hospitality that have been signs of high European culture. Only in Paris, France, steeped in history, passion, beauty, and "l'art de vivre", could this legendary hotel begin yet another life in a refined new design that recalls its origins as it appeals to the contemporary traveler, who desires not merely a place to stay but a place to feel truly welcome. Get a true taste for the artistic creativity and passions of France with one of two private half-day museum tours.

At the heart of this vibrant and grandiose neighborhood, Le Royal Monceau is a playground for intellectuals, party-goers, dancers, epicureans, and other adventurous souls and dreamers. Only the charm of the French phrase "je-ne-sais-quoi" can begin to describe the singular and most sensational experience that awaits you at Le Royal Monceau, 37 avenue Hoche in the 8th arrondisement of Paris. Residents are treated like close family, a few doorsteps away from "the most beautiful avenue in the world", the Champ-Elysées, and the Arc-de-Triomphe.

A visit to the Louvre is essential to any Paris trip, but going to the Louvre accompanied by an art historian is quintessential. Your art tour guide will lead you through the most significant collections, weaving a timeline of art and history along the way in this fortress-turned-palace-turned-museum. From the Egyptian works, the Mesopotamian relics, to the Greek and Roman sculptures, the antiquities section is truly awe-inspiring. At the heart of the Louvre are the grand galleries of Italian paintings, masterpieces conceived and created by da Vinci, Veronese and Titian.

Or, you may prefer the renowned Musee d'Orsay, set on the left bank of the River Seine which boasts France's national collection of art dating from 1848 to 1915, including the paintings, sculptures, photography of Renoir, Gauguin, Van Gogh, Degas, Manet and so many others. One of the world's most visited museums, the Musee d'Orsay's art spans from neoclassicism and romanticism to impressionism, expressionism, and art nouveau design.

• Round trip Economy Class air
• 7 days/6 nights accommodations at Le Royal Monceau, Raffles Paris
• Daily complimentary breakfast
• All room-related taxes (including VAT)
