Travel Today with Peter Greenberg--Hotel Plaza Athénée, Paris, France

November 23, 2016

This week Travel Today with Peter Greenberg comes from the Hotel Plaza Athénée in Paris. Joining me will be Elaine Sciolino from The New York Times with a situation report on the year after the Paris nightclub shooting and what travelers need to know about Paris. Sciolino's new book, The Only Street in Paris: Life on the Rue des Martyrs is a great place to start. Laurant Poncelet, Concierge at Hotel Plaza Athénée, shares some of the more unusual requests he’s received from guests, from baby lions to a charter jet flight in search of a kilo of white truffles. Catherine Down, Cio Down Editor and American Expat, will talk about secret French cheese and how to find them. Othman nasrou, Vice-président de la Région Île-de-France, takes on the topic of the decline of tourism after the terrorist attacks and how smart travelers can benefit. There's all of this and more as Travel Today with Peter Greenberg comes from the Hotel Plaza Athénée in Paris.
