Adrian will lead you through Place des Vosges\, where the epic fight was filmed during the “Hunters”\,(season 1) and then into a relaxed meet-and-greet over coffee and patisseries with Alexandra Vandernoot (Tessa)and Peter Hudson (Horton). Guests then follow through the historic Left Bank—crossing Pont Marie\, skirting Notre Dame\, and pausing near the Shakespeare and Company bookstore where some of the Methos episodes were filmed—Then lunch. After you’ll be taken to the Cité Internationale Universitaire de Paris site of the episodes Reasonable Doubt and Finale Parts 1&2. The day closes beneath the Eiffel Tower\, where the now iconic sword fight between Kalas and Macleod  and the unforgettable Tango with Duncan and Amanda were filmed.  Sunday deepens the experience with visits to Methos’ apartment at Rue Mallet-Stevens\, a jazz club backdrop\, and the Château de Maisons-Laffitte \, where the flashback scene in Methos was filmed. Of course we like to end with an exciting venue\, so this year we have chosen the chateau as the site for the Sword Experience event.  A legendary setting transformed into a living\, shared memory.   \nThis not just a tour—it’s stepping inside the world of Highlander\, scene by scene\, moment by moment. If  you can’t attend the entire tour\, don’t worry\, we also have several other options for you to enjoy.  \n**Should you wish to keep the adventure going and attend our Scotland event\, the flight needed for those attending both Paris and Scotland is the 2:15PM Easy Jet on August 3rd from Charles de Gaulle to Glasgow** NOTE: FLIGHT IS NOT INCLUDED IN THE TICKET PRICE  DUE TO VARIOUS OPTIONS BY PARTICIPANTS. \nThose who are already signed up for either Scotland Tour can get a discount code to our Paris Tour.
