Personal Attention

Never 'one size fits all'
AST activities and itineraries are planned and tailored to fit you and the people who will be your companions. No worries if you need a special consideration or have dietary restrictions.

Picture

Camaraderie

Fun with friends
Come as a couple, come with some friends, come by yourself - you'll soon be part of the family on an AST Tour! The small group size makes for good times and new friends!

Insider Knowledge

Way beyond the Eiffel Tower
You'll see the Eiffel Tower on an AST tour but so much more too! Traveling on buses and the Metro you'll learn Paris like a local, visiting neighborhoods and special places that the big tourist routes often miss.

Learning

Art, History, and France
are Marilyn's passions
; her joy is sharing them with others. AS
T tours are never static - you will be soaking up meaning and sense of time and place while you marvel at the beauty of your surroundings.

Adventures
of the Nicest Kind

Delightful discoveries
There is always something new to discover with AST. Depending on the tour and the season, you will be adventuring into wonderful neighborhoods, fascinating areas of Paris, and out beyond to beautiful sites.

Respect

It's your trip
AST tours are trips planned for adults, full of fun, adventure, and excitement. But it's your trip, so if you decide to take a day off to shop, to wander by yourself, to pass some time sitting in a garden, go right ahead! (Just be sure to let the rest of us know!)

A Comfortable
Home

A charming, central hotel
With AST Tours you'll unpack just once* so you can truly settle in your home away from home and enjoy yourself without hassle.
*except for Paris & the Loire

Great Food and Wine

The heart of every trip
Where to begin? Every AST tour is a delight for the senses, none more important than taste! From fresh warm pastries at breakfast to classic cafe fare to glorious dinners at special restaurants, you'll revel in the pleasures of France

Fun...Fun...Fun
