WAPL London & Paris International Incident
August 20, 2022 to
August 27, 2022
Join WAPL’s John Jordan and spend a week discovering two of the world’s most exciting cities on this London and Paris tour. Stay in centrally located hotels and be accompanied by a professional Tour Director who will bring these destinations to life with firsthand, in-depth knowledge. On a guided sightseeing tour with an expert Local Guide in each city, discover the must-see attractions, such as Big Ben and Piccadilly Circus in London, and the Champs-Elysées and Arc de Triomphe in Paris. Get a different perspective of Westminster on a private, narrated cruise on London’s Thames River, and enjoy spectacular views of the Eiffel Tower and Notre Dame Cathedral during a relaxing cruise on the Seine River.
Take a ride on the high-speed Eurostar through the Chunnel, an engineering marvel, as you sit back and relax all the way to Paris! But that’s not all. WAPL has also included unique experiences, such as sipping champagne while taking in spectacular views on the London Eye, the world’s tallest observation wheel. Or a ride on the train to picturesque Montmartre, followed by a typical lunch in the Parisian art district. All of this and much more, including plenty of time on your own to explore each fascinating city.

Host
105.7 WAPL Radio Personality John Jordan
Wisconsin Native and Host of the afternoon 
Road Show
John is extremely excited to experience the sights, sounds and history of two of the world’s finest cities – London and Paris.
Of the many trips John has taken with Fox World Travel, this is John’s first trip to Europe and he’s looking forward to sharing that experience with his fellow travelers.
“In many ways this is a dream trip for me. Having never been to Europe before, there’s no one I would rather travel with than the travel experts from Fox World Travel. I’ve taken many trips with them to Mexico, The Dominican Republic and Jamaica. And from departure to arrival, I implicitly trust Fox World Travel with every aspect of my trip and have never been disappointed with the results. Many of my fondest memories are because of the incredible attention to detail and professionalism I’ve received from Fox World Travel. In preparation of this trip I’m watching a ton of Rick Steves Europe videos, reading travel books and watching ‘National Lampoon’s European Vacation’ the latter of which ,admittedly, seems inadequate. That’s why I’m glad Fox World Travel is along every step of the way.”
