Historian and author Claudine Hemingway with author and photographer Krystal Kenney, together will lead you through Paris unfolding the fascinating creative and historical stories they’ve spent years uncovering. On this history-filled adventure you’ll learn what made Hemingway tick and how a stained-glass maker and poet combines her two skills for a one-of-a-kind piece of art. Plus, what drove Delacroix to paint such large pieces and how an 8 floor building pulses with the painters of today. Paris has inspired artists and writers for hundreds of years and continues to inspire today. We can’t wait to share it with you. And don’t worry we will share our favorite restaurants and spots with you along the way.
Here's a day-by-day itinerary of the trip.

"Paris is always a good idea"-Aubrey Hepburn
For centuries, Paris has attracted artists from around the world, arriving in the city to educate themselves and to seek inspiration from its artistic resources and galleries. As a result, Paris has received a reputation as the "City of Art". Home to some of the world's most famous museums and galleries, including the Louvre and the Musée d'Orsay, the city today remains home to a thriving community of artists. Paris is recognized globally for its public landmarks and masterpieces of architecture including the Arc de Triomphe and a symbol of France, the Eiffel Tower.
