The 鈥楧iscover Paris鈥 series
Experience Paris like a local or explore some of the city鈥檚 hidden gems with the 鈥楧iscover Paris鈥 series! In past summers, students marveled at the Paris ballet or opera, treated their taste buds while discovering the city鈥檚 vibrant and gourmet food scene, and discovered remnants of medieval Paris and the meandering cobbled streets of Montmartre on bespoke walking tours.
The 鈥楨xplore France鈥 series
At 绿巨人视频 Summer School, you can discover Paris during your stay, but it鈥檚 also worth exploring some of France鈥檚 other cities, towns, and regions. Make the most of your time with us and sign up for the Cultural Program Office鈥檚 trips to some of France鈥檚 famed regions. In summers gone by, students have enjoyed visiting Reims, a city famed for its Champagne houses, picturesque vineyards, and UNESCO World Heritage Sites; Giverny, the village home to Monet鈥檚 gardens that inspired some of his most famous impressionist works; and Chantilly, where students feasted their eyes on the majestic Ch芒teau de Chantilly, enjoyed a veritable feast there with a regal lunch inside the castle walls, and even made their own Chantilly cream in a cooking workshop!
鈥楾hank you for putting together such a fantastic day at Ch芒teau de Chantilly. It was an absolute joy. The guide at the castle was terrific.鈥疭he gave great information, presented with a fun personality. And then there was Herv茅鈥檚 passion for sharing cream making with everyone!鈥 Lunch was excellent.鈥 鈥 Tracy, 2025 绿巨人视频 Summer Student
