Today, we're off to explore and make the most of Paris. We’ll catch a glimpse of the iconic Arc du Triomphe, and, of course, no trip to Paris would be complete without seeing the Eiffel Tower.

Today, Amsterdam reveals its artistic and aquatic secrets in all their splendour. We'll begin with an 'underground tour' offering a unique perspective of the city through the eyes of someone who used to live on the streets who’ll show us the city in a new light. It’s important to see every destination from a different perspective and understand what makes Amsterdam what it is today. Afterwards, you'll have plenty of time to strike a pose by the picturesque canals. As the day unfolds, we'll embark on a canal cruise to explore more of this beautiful city. Set sail with the TruFam, beer in hand as we see the city by water!
