Trip Inspiration

Chances are, you’ve already been to Paris. You’ve ambled along the banks of the Seine. You’ve climbed the Eiffel Tower and the Sacré Coeur. You’ve done your best hunchback impression outside Notre Dame Cathedral. You’ve been to the Louvre, made a beeline for the Mona Lisa and then walked straight out again. There’s no shame in that.

But here at SmoothRed, we want to show you a whole new side to Paris. Because as well as all those classic sights, there’s plenty more to the City of Lights, including chances to taste some of the finest wines and cuisine in the world.

From neighbourhood bistros to dinner cruises along the Seine, this is a deeper, more authentic French experience.

These are simply handpicked suggestions for the kind of Parisian holiday you might have. Yours will be tailored, and refined until it matches you completely.
