TRIP ITINERARY

Day 1: Saturday, July 28Today you board your flight for the transatlantic journey to Paris.

Day 2: Sunday, July 29Morning arrival in Paris as you are transferred to your hotel in Central Paris. This is the city of Love and the city of Light. You will see why as the city has so much to offer. Paris is one of the Top 5 Gay Cities of Europe and Gay Tourism is thriving here. You meet your ALandCHUCK.travel escorts today. Welcome to Paris.

Day 3: Monday, July 30Today you enjoy a professional escorted sightseeing tour of GAY PARIS. This tour gives you all the major sights from a gay perspective. Your guide will show you the famous gay neighborhoods and areas of gay nightlife. Plus you see all the usual stuff, you know, The Eiffel Tower, The Seine, The Louvre, etc. Enjoy a great first orientation of both the left and right bank to prepare you for a wonderful experience.

Day 4: Tuesday, July 31A full day to enjoy Paris. Perhaps you might like to visit the Palace of Versailles. When you see the Palace and the famous Hall of Mirrors you might think that Louis XIV had to be secretly gay. There is so much to experience tonight in Paris.

Day 5: Wednesday, August 1A final day to enjoy Paris. The Louvre Museum can easily fill the day or perhaps you may sleep it away to prepare for a glamorous evening out tonight.

Day 6: Thursday, August 2Today is a wonderful opportunity to see the French Countryside as you depart Paris aboard your luxury ALandCHUCK.travel motorcoach and travel to the Belgian border. You arrive in the Flemish region and the village of BRUGES. This is the best preserved medieval town on the continent. You will enjoy a tour of this former Flemish Capital with a qualified local guide. Leisure time will allow you to enjoy the famous beer and chocolates, considered the best in the world. Next, cross the border into The Netherlands and arrive in Amsterdam. Check into your city center hotel and get ready for 4 days of the world famous Amsterdam Pride. This evening your guide introduces you to the “real” Amsterdam on the “I Wasn’t There Tour.” See where Brad, Julia and George filmed segments of Ocean’s 11, and no doubt, partook of the product! See how “soft drugs” are selected via menu, ordered like a beer, and served with any and all questions answered. Come and people watch young and old alike, and have fun, just like little kids in a candy store. Afterwards, take a short walk and see what’s happening at Bourbon Street, a local live music venue. Famous musicians, such as Sting, Bruce Springsteen Joss Stone, Jeff Healey, and BB King found their way to Bourbon Street, and so should you if you like live music! ($8 cover is included.)

Day 7: Friday, August 3A wonderful day to enjoy Amsterdam. Today your escort will take you on an interesting tour of the famed Red Light Distict & Nieumarkt. The Red Light District is exactly as you would think and unique in all of Europe. The Nieuwmarkt District is one of the oldest parts of Amsterdam and is actually a square in Amsterdam’s Chinatown, next to the Red Light District.

Day 8: Saturday, August 4GAY PRIDE DAY!Today will be like nothing you have every seen. Amsterdam becomes a living RAINBOW of color as the entire city celebrates their gay family. There are dozens of parties, events and activities going on. This afternoon the highlight will be the world’s ONLY Gay Pride Parade ON WATER! The parade is on the Amsterdam Canals and the floats are barges celebrating everything gay. As a special HIGHLIGHT, you will have VIP access to celebrate as a participant in the parade aboard the exclusive ALandCHUCK.travel USA Barge/Float. You will represent USA & Canada as the Dutch look on. This will be a fun and never to be forgotten experience. The parties will go late (all night if you choose.) Concerts, Circuit Dance Parties, and so much more will roll out the carpet to entertain you.

Day 9: Sunday, August 5Our journey to the “old world” comes to an end as you are transferred to the Amsterdam Airport for your flight to the USA. (or remember, you can enjoy the post tour that includes another night to de-tox and visit the FLORIADE World’s Fair.)

FUN...so much
