France Impressions is a blog about my travels throughout France. Travel is about embarking on journeys, discovering new places, its people, learning from others and in particular, learning about oneself. I believe travel is an art and I like to craft trips and tours around your personality, interests, desires and dreams. I undertake to open for you 'doors that are normally closed" thereby ensuring you gain access to exclusive experiences while introducing you to extraordinary personalities.

Hidden Paris - In Plain Sight!
Paris boasts numerous waterways: the majestic Seine needs no introduction, of course, but most tourists are unlikely to have ever seen Canal Saint-Martin. This is an incredible romantic area of Paris. From rustic walks to serious shopping, wonderful cafes and restaurants and cruises lasting over two hours. Once a working class area, it has become the hip side of Paris.
One of the best ways to get a 'taste' of the canal is by a small cruise boat, a 4.5 km cruise.. The price is about 15 euros per person.
