UPSTAIRS For many travellers, the appeal of coach touring is the opportunity to see multiple destinations in one holiday. But for others, there's a distinct attraction in settling down for several nights and soaking up the local atmosphere. Cosmos Vacations, the value-priced escorted tour company, has expanded the number of tours with multi-night stopovers as long as five nights. The new Discover Provence itinerary, for example, combines overnights at the beginning and end in Marseille with five nights in Avignon. During their stay there, tour guests will make daily outings to memorable sites in the area including Ch â teauneuf-du-Pape, Arles and the medieval town of Uzès. The 12-day Swiss UNESCO Heritage Tour includes four nights in Berne; while Leisurely Tuscany & Rome is highlighted by a four night stay in Montecatini where clients can enjoy day trips to Florence and Siena ­ or stay put, as they please. The Moscow and St. Petersburg tour eliminates the coach altogether with three nights in each city and an overnight train between the two. The Cosmos stay-and-tour programs are a great way for travellers to pause and soak up a little of the local ambiance.
