Day 1: Depart London/Arrive In Paris

Interrail route begins at London St Pancras station. Depart between 7 AM and 11 AM on the morning of the trip start date.

It’s no secret that Paris is one of the most romantic cities in Europe and one of the most visited cities in the world. So if you have an interrail pass, Paris is a MUST! There are endless reasons to visit Paris more than once, it is not only a beautiful and cultural city, it’s very walkable and hosts great sights, and it has been a source of inspiration for many writers, artists, and filmmakers. As Audrey Hepburn famously said, ’Paris is always a good idea’, and we couldn’t agree more. From those bucket list attractions like the Eiffel Tower to picture-perfect pleasures like a picnic on the Champ de Mars, Paris really does offer something for everyone!

Paris has a very strong café culture, which makes it the perfect place to do people watching while eating a pain au chocolat and sipping over a coffee. If you’re looking for a good way to see Paris, and a relaxing way, you could take a Seine River Cruise, seeing Paris from a completely different perspective! As this will be your last night in Paris, we highly recommend grabbing a spot on the Champ de Mars, where locals and tourists gather to watch the Eiffel Tower light show.

The outside, however, is an entirely different story! It dominates the cityscape of Florence! You may be looking for something different while you’re here, you could take a visit around the Tuscan countryside. Finally, no one can visit Florence, without doing a bit of shopping.
