6 Exclusive golf round on Wednesday October 3rd, 2018 Albatros, the 2018 Ryder Course at Le Golf National The Albatros is a championship golf course at Le Golf National, site of the French Open (part of the European PGA) for the last 10 years, and ranked by Golf Weekly Magazine as the 3 rd best European professional tournament venue. The Albatros will host the 2018 RYDER CUP. Within 20 miles only from Paris Notre Dame church, one can easily think oneself in Ireland with this Irish links design, even more Irish when the wind blows. Under these conditions, the Albatross course can be considered as one of the toughest course in Europe where playing one s handicap is a great performance. The finish on the 18 th hole, a short par 5 with water hazard in front of the green, remains a fantastic challenge for those who would attempt to reach it in two strokes.

7 Dining Paris Wine Museum Located in the upscale 16th arrondissement not far from the Eiffel Tower, the Wine Museum is housed in what used to be crude limestone quarries that were mined between the 13th and the 18th centuries to provide the dressed stoneused to build Paris. The three vaulted cellars, which today house the Museum restaurant, were used in the 16th and 17th centuries by the Friars of Passy Monastery for storing their wine. Construction of the Monastery began in 1493 and was encouraged and enriched by Queen Anne de Bretagne. Built along today's Beethoven Road, the Monastery was surrounded by gardens and terraces going down to the Seine and orchards and vines on the hillside. From these vines, whose existence is evoked today by surrounding street names such as rue Vineuse' (Winy Road) and the rue des Vignes' (Vineyard Road), the Friars used to produce a light red wine which King Louis XIII liked to drink on his return from hunting in the Bois de Boulogne. Renovated after 1950, the ancient wine cellars were used for a time for wine storage by the Eiffel Tower's restaurant before becoming the Wine Museum and since 1984 have been in the ownership of the «Conseil des Echansons de France», Council founded in 1954, and dedicated to the defense and promotion of the finest French wine Program : Wine tasting visit Aperitif with cocktail pieces and Champagne 3 courses dinner with wine Wine class with sommelier during dinner and blind test
