PARIS & VERSAILLES
Paris, la vie Parisienne is a Sisters and Suitcases favorite for more than the Eiffel Tower. We love the glimmering lights, the bohemian alleys, and the grand monuments, this city never fails to inspire. From the historical, jazzy neighborhoods to the ultra contemporary plazas, Paris is bound to give you an enthralling experience. The city knows how to work its way through your heart with its hilly streets of Montmartre to its Tour Eiffel. Paris is sure to rekindle your appreciation for life one encounter at a time. Let’s just say you’ll find it difficult to say, "au revoir."
