Paris France

Going to Paris Sept. 14-23. How is Hotel Du Bois 11 Rue du Dome 7511 Paris?
What type of clothing do I need to take ?
Any good suggestions on tours from the hotel I will be on the trip with my 85 year old Mother. I possible I would like to get a mini bus tour from my hotel.

Going to London for one day Sat. on the Eurostar any good one day tour? Also a good place to have tea in the afternoon before traveling back to Paris.

Thanks

Hi

Mixed reviews for Hotel Du Bois on Trip Advisor - http://www.tripadvisor.com. In Paris what about - http://www.paris-opentour.com. Or a cruise on the Seine - http://www.bateaux-mouches.fr. In London what about afternoon tea at the Ritz - http://www.theritzlondon.com/tea/index.asp. Book ASAP (at least 4 weeks in advance). And again to "save your legs" take a bus tour - http://www.londontown.com/tolst.phtml

Good luck.

Hi B,

A daytrip to London can be somewhat tiring on Mom. Have you asked her about it?

September weather could be warm or cool. Take nice clothes that you can layer (not knowing if you are male or female, I'll say)... Pants, shirts, good shoes for walking, some kind of sweather or jacket, like that. For 10 days you don't need a huge suitcase.

I usually take my 4-5 best "outfits", you know the clothes you reach for in your closet first at home, that are decent looking, in fabrics that pack well, pieces that mix and match, and the right weight for the season where you are going.

Paris is generally quite warm until mid-October. Every year it seems to give full meaning to the term 'Indian Summer'.

The sites you gave me are in French do they have sites in English for mini bus tours and river tours?

Thanks
