Picture yourself wandering through Impressionist Claude Monet’s famous Water Lilies in real time at his former home and its surrounding gardens in Giverny or taking a guided tour of the opulent Versailles-inspired Château de Bizy. Then experience the most iconic attractions in Paris – from admiring the Mona Lisa up close at the Louvre Museum to gazing at the Arc de Triomphe from a sidewalk cafe with a café au lait and ascending the Eiffel Tower for a bird’s-eye view of the city.

Avalon Waterways is giving you the chance to make this once-in-a-lifetime experience a reality. You could win two spots on the River Cruise “Paris to Normandy”, which departs from Paris on Tuesday, 12 November 2024 and returns on Tuesday, 19 November 2024. Your flights and most meals over the eight-day journey are included in this exciting package, valued at $15,946. Plus, you’ll be travelling in style. At 18 square metres, Avalon’s state-of-the-art Panorama Suites are the most spacious rooms on offer, each with wall-to-wall, floor-to-ceiling windows facing the water.

All you have to do to win is enter your details below. Competition closes on Sunday 30 June 2024 at 11:59pm AEST
