Overview
Take a trip to Sacré Coeur de Montmartre on your France Vacation
When it comes to popular tourist destinations in the capital, the Sacré Coeur is second only to the Eiffel Tower. Located in the heart of the Montmartre neighbourhood and the 18th arrondissement, the basilica was built between 1875 and 1914, one of several white stone basilicas constructed in France at the end of the 19th century. The basilica was proposed as a way for France to make amends for its sins, which were believed to have led to its defeat in the Franco-Prussian war.
The Sacré Coeur is built in the Romano-Byzantine style. The vault of its apse is decorated with one of the world's largest gilded mosaics depicting Christ in Glory. The basilica is home to equestrian statues, notable Joan of Arc on horseback and King Saint Louis, and a 19-ton bell, one of the world's heaviest and largest. Its prominent dome is the highest point in Paris and requires climbing 292 steps to get to the top for sweeping city views. The basilica is open throughout the year. Entry is free, but you'll have to pay to climb the dome.

Shout out to Nico, one of our drivers in Mykonos and all the great expeditions we went on.
I highly recommend Goway Travel to plan your next vacation adventures.
Jacqueline G. Jacqueline GarrettI just returned from a wonderful trip to Sweden and Norway. I had the good fortune of working with Michael Keon who helped me plan and customize an interesting and balanced itinerary.
All of the logistics went well, flights, transfers, hotels in great locations, travel between destinations, fjord safaris, cruises and guided tours with knowledgeable guides to inform and make the experience even more memorable.
Michael was responsive to all of my questions and made it so easy to both prepare for and ultimately enjoy the trip.
Looking forward to planning the next one!GailJust got back from a fabulous safari holiday in Tanzania. The trip was amazing! Exceeded my expectations. The people, the local team at Sense of Africa, the food, the accommodations (Karibu camps: Elephant Springs+Lion’s Paw and Sametu), the safari from the sky (hot air balloon)… I can keep going. Perfect way to celebrate my 50th bday.
Thanks again to Alice Teramoto and Goway for making this happen! Truly a trip of a lifetimeKARISSA CARRASQUILLOI have had Melissa Moses plan our trips for us for quite a few years. She always finds interesting sights for us to see, the hotels are always beautiful and everything runs perfectly. Can't wait to get started on the next adventure.

I would highly recommend him as a travel agent, and we will be using him again
Kevin BourkeKatie's knowledge and support were the primary reason the trip worked so well.
Everything went smoothly, and the vacation could not have been any better. The hotels were wonderful, the two tours we took went well, and there were no issues with flights or transfers.
