Arras and the Floating Gardens of Amiens

Arras is a city that surprises. Largely destroyed during the Great War it was painstakingly reconstructed and today continues to offer some of the grandest squares and architecture in northern Europe. From its bustling markets to vibrant restaurants and remembrance sites, both within and near the city, there is much to see and do. Prices are based on a Friday departure.
