Divine Paris Adventure
The Avenue of Champs-Elysees & The Place Vendôme
Transfer to our hotel and after checking into our hotel, we’ll have a tour of Paris starting with a stroll along the Avenue of Champs-Elysees.
We’ll begin on the East side of Champs-Elysees, and we’ll stop for photos of monuments along the way, including the Place Vendôme which is one of the city’s most famous and beautiful neoclassical squares. Sober government-looking buildings house some of the most famous high-end stores, such as, Dior, Chanel or Cartier. The most exclusive jewelry stores, high-end shops and best hotels, including the Ritz and the Vendôme hotels, are found in this impressive square.
It’s the ultimate in opulence and luxury found in Paris. An enormous column (Vendôme Column) was placed at the centre of the square, where the statue of Louis XIV, the Sun King, had previously stood. It has a low relief imitating the Emperor Trajan’s triumphant Column in Rome.
Avenue of Champs-Elysees
“Champs-Elysees” is French for the paradise of the Elysian Fields, paradise of peace and harmony for souls. It has been described as the “most beautiful avenue in the whole world”. The Champs-Élysées forms part of the Axe historique.
The avenue runs east-west for 1.91 km (1.19 mi) through the 8th arrondissement in northwestern Paris.
Near the east end of Champs Elysees, on a side street, we’ll visit the famous gothic Notre Dame Cathedral.
Notre-Dame de Paris, meaning “Our Lady of Paris”, is a medieval Catholic cathedral on the Île de la Cité, an island on the Seine river, in the 4th arrondissement of Paris. The cathedral, dedicated to the Divine Mother, is considered one of the finest examples of French Gothic architecture.
Theatre de l’Opera
We’ll pass by the Palais Garnier or Opéra Garnier for a photo opportunity.
Currently called the Opéra national de Paris, the Paris Opera is the primary opera and ballet company of France and they use the Palais Garnier mainly for ballet. It’s been a monument historique of France since 1923.

Day 3
Meals: Breakfast
Tour of St. Magdeleine Church
Napoleon Bonaparte had the church redesigned in the Neoclassical style to become a monument to the glory of his armies. After his downfall in 1814 construction as a church resumed, but it was not completed until 1842.
The building is surrounded on all four sides by columns in the Corinthian style. Its fifty-two Corinthian columns, each 20 metres (66 feet) high, surround the building. A structure having rows of classical columns on all four sides, not just on the facade. Notable examples of this structure included the Olympeion, the Temple of Olympian Zeus, the largest temple in ancient Athens, located below the Parthenon, and the much smaller Roman Maison Carrée in Nîmes in France, one of the best-preserved of all Roman temples.
The Magdeleine Church is one of the rare large neo-classical buildings to imitate the whole external form of an ancient temple, rather than just the portico front.
The Divine Madeleine is the title given to the most-high spiritual teacher and leader of this planet, Cariel, who has been teaching the Golden Ages ancient wisdom for eons and considered the most-high spiritual and divine leader in the universe.
Her Divine “legions of light protect Her wherever She goes”.
In accordance with the Divine Plan and the I Am Divine Presence, and as the Divine Mother and Divine Magdeleine and Divine Planetary President, etc., etc., etc., (refer to all Her titles), Cariel has chosen to announce her authority as She participates with the world during this Divine Tour safely, comfortably, enjoyably and effectively and presents Her classes and messages on a divine stage for those who support Her and are devoted to Her and who wish to connect with Her on the divine bridge She offers to those who are to become Her divine initiates.
What better place to announce Her presence and Most-High Divinity and Most-High Sovereignty, than in this divine and beautiful church. And the Divine Magdeleine makes an offer of accessibility to those humans of higher consciousness who are devoted to Her and can hear Her broadcasts, as long as they enroll at Her university with and without walls.
Just as Cariel inspires, so too do the monumental sculptures by François Rude, Charles Marochetti and other prominent 19th-century French artists displayed throughout the church. The highlight is a statue in the center of the church, called “The Ecstasy of Sainte Mary Magdeleine” (refer above) and depicting Her as surrounded by Legions of Light, Cariel calls Her Divine Entourage.
Arc de Triomphe
Last, but not least, is the Arc de Triomphe that is at the West end of Champs-Elysees at the centre of a dodecagonal configuration of twelve radiating avenues.
It’s dedicated to those most victorious.
Napolean started the Arc 1806, and the Bourbon Restoration reinstated the monarchy, represented by King Louis XVIII but the Arc de Triomphe was not completed until 1836 during the reign of King Louis Philippe.
We’ll return to our hotel for our welcome dinner celebration and enjoy getting acquainted with each other.

The rest of the day is at your leisure.

The hilltop of the famous community of Montmartre is lite up with the Basilica of the Sacred Heart of Paris, commonly known as Sacré-Cœur Basilica and often simply Sacré-Cœur. It’s a Roman Catholic church dedicated to the Sacred Heart of the Christ consiousness. Built by the people of Paris as a political and cultural monument, the basilica is the perfect symbol of both devotion and solidarity.

Day 5
Meals: Breakfast, Celebration Dinner
Palace of Versailles
After breakfast, we’ll take the train to the opulent Versaille Estate. We’ll then head directly inside with our skip-the-line access and we’ll spend a few hours exploring the palace and grounds.
An audio guide is provided so you can explore the famous palace rooms, including the Hall of Mirrors, at your own pace. Walk from hall to gilded hall, looking at ornately painted ceilings and the private royal quarters. Travel back in time as you discover what life was like living in the splendor of the court of the kings and queens of France.
The Palace of Versailles is a former royal residence located in Versailles. Louis XIV expanded the château Louis the VIII built. It was a favorite residence for both kings, and in 1682, Louis XIV moved the seat of his court and government to Versailles, making the palace the de facto capital of France. In 1789, Louis XVI and the royal family returned to Paris. For the rest of the French Revolution, the Palace of Versailles was largely abandoned and emptied of its contents, and the population of the surrounding city plummeted.
Napoleon Bonaparte, following his takeover of France, used Versailles as a summer residence from 1810 to 1814, but did not restore it. When the French Monarchy was restored, it remained in Paris and it was not until the 1830s that meaningful repairs were made to the palace.
A museum of French history was installed within it, replacing the apartments of the southern wing.
After touring inside the castle we’ll head outside to the manicured gardens and lawns, where a dazzling display of flowers and exotic plants delight visitors of all ages.
Eifel Tower
We’ll have some photo op time at the Eifel Tower. The latest addition to the tower was in 2022: +6 meters were gained following the installation of a new antenna dedicated to digital terrestrial radio (DAB+). The Eiffel Tower reached the height of 1,083 feet on March 15, 2022 thanks to this successful and dizzying operation carried out by helicopter.
Nearby we’ll have our Celebration Dinner, celebrating the successful completion of our Divine Paris Tour.
