MEALS

Eating is a big part of traveling. We understands the importance of breakfast to start your day, we strive to include a basic breakfast wherever possible. Should breakfast not be included, your Tour Guide can suggest some local options.  Generally meals are not included in the trip price when there is a choice of eating options, to give you the maximum flexibility in deciding where, what and with whom to eat.

All accommodation on this Paris to the Mediterranean tour will be multi-share. This may involve 4-6 group members sharing and even (on rare occasions) dormitory-style rooms for the whole group. The majority of accommodation will have shared bathroom facilities.
