The Grand Tour was the traditional trip of Europe undertaken by mainly upper-class European young men of means, or those of more humble origin who could find a sponsor. The custom flourished from about 1660 until the advent of large-scale rail transport in the 1840s, and was associated with a standard itinerary. It served as an educational rite of passage. Though primarily associated with the British nobility and wealthy landed gentry, similar trips were made by wealthy young men of Protestant Northern European nations on Continental Europe, and from the second half of the 18th century, by some South and North Americans. The tradition declined with the lapse of neo-classical enthusiasm and after rail and steamship travel made the journeys much easier when Thomas Cook made the "Cook's Tour" of early mass tourism a byword.
The New York Times in 2008 described the Grand Tour in this way:
The primary value of the Grand Tour, it was believed, lay in the exposure both to the cultural legacy of classical antiquity and the Renaissance, and to the aristocratic and fashionably polite society of the European continent. In addition, it provided the only opportunity to view specific works of art, and possibly the only chance to hear certain music. A Grand Tour could last from several months to several years. It was commonly undertaken in the company of a Cicerone, a knowledgeable guide or tutor. The Grand Tour had more than superficial cultural importance; as E. P. Thompson stated, "ruling-class control in the 18th century was located primarily in a cultural hegemony, and only secondarily in an expression of economic or physical (military) power."
Richard Mark Hammond (born 19 December 1969) is a British presenter, writer, and journalist. He co-hosted the motoring programme Top Gear with Jeremy Clarkson and James May, from 2002 to 2015 and presented series 1–4 of Brainiac: Science Abuse on Sky1. He also co-hosted Total Wipeout with Amanda Byram on BBC One. Hammond presented Planet Earth Live alongside Julia Bradbury. In 2016 he was scheduled to be presenting an Untitled Amazon motoring show to be produced by their company W. Chump & Sons alongside his former Top Gear co-hosts, as an exclusive distributed via Amazon Video to Amazon Prime customers.
Hammond was born in Solihull, West Midlands, and is the grandson of workers in the Birmingham car industry. In the mid-1980s Hammond moved with his family (mother Eileen, father Alan, and younger brothers Andrew, writer of the 'Crypt' Series, and Nicholas) to the North Yorkshire cathedral city of Ripon where his father ran a probate business in the market square. He attended Blossomfield Infant School in Shirley from the age of 3-7. Originally a pupil of Solihull School, a fee-paying boys' independent school, he moved to Ripon Grammar School, and from 1986 to 1988 attended Harrogate College of Art and Technology.
Jeremy Charles Robert Clarkson (born 11 April 1960) is an English broadcaster, journalist and writer who specialises in motoring. He is best known for co-presenting the BBC TV show Top Gear with Richard Hammond and James May from October 2002 to March 2015. He also writes weekly columns for The Sunday Times and The Sun.
From a career as a local journalist in northern England, Clarkson rose to public prominence as a presenter of the original format of Top Gear in 1988. Since the mid-1990s, he has become a recognised public personality, regularly appearing on British television presenting his own shows and appearing as a guest on other shows. As well as motoring, Clarkson has produced programmes and books on subjects such as history and engineering. From 1998 to 2000, he also hosted his own chat show, Clarkson.
His opinionated but humorous tongue-in-cheek writing and presenting style has often provoked public reaction. His actions both privately and as a Top Gear presenter have also sometimes resulted in criticism from the media, politicians, pressure groups and the public. He has also garnered a significant public following, being credited as a major factor in the resurgence of Top Gear as one of the most popular shows on the BBC.

Le grand Tour - Québec, Louisiane En Amérique du Nord, Patrick de Carolis part sur les traces des explorateurs français qui ont conquis près de deux tiers du territoire, comme Jacques Cartier ou Samuel de Champlain au XVIe siècle. Quant à La Louisiane, elle reste marquée par l'explorateur et gouverneur Jean-Baptiste Le Moyne de Bienville, fondateur de la Nouvelle-Orléans. C'est l'occasion de visiter cette ville, et notamment le quartier français, la cathédrale Saint-Louis, ou encore le restaurant «Chez Antoine», qui sont autant de témoignages de l'héritage français. Enfin, Patrick de Carolis rencontre André Manoukian, qui invite à découvrir l'histoire du jazz, qu'il affectionne. Faire de la culture un grand voyage !

Le grand Tour - Inde, Amsterdam, Paris Le voyage culturel de Patrick de Carolis débute dans l'Inde du XVIe siècle, un pays morcelé en une multitude de royaumes dirigés par des Maharajas, qui connaît ses plus belles heures grâce à l'exploitation des mines de diamant. Puis, le périple se poursuit à la découverte du Siècle d'or néerlandais, lorsque les Pays-Bas, qui s'appellent alors les Provinces-Unies, représente la plus grande puissance commerciale du monde. Un essor qui favorise l'éclosion de l'âge d'or de la peinture néerlandaise, avec notamment Rembrandt, Vermeer, ou encore Franz Hals. Enfin, direction Paris sous le Second Empire, alors qu'Eugénie, dernière impératrice des Français, devient le symbole de l'élégance à la française. Faire de la culture un grand voyage !

Look around,
I see you found
Something new to talk about
Saying oh, oh, oh
Seasons change; you're still the same,
Like a light that won't burn out
Saying oh, oh, oh
I'm so close,
I'm too close to help you now
Chorus
Oh, when you gonna wake up?
When you gonna step out
And get out of your own way, own way baby
Oh, the world's not against you
When you gonna realize you're standing in your own way
New day, still the same,
Always somebody else's fault
Try to hide all your lies
Never ever could be wrong
Saying oh, oh, oh
I'm so close, I'm too close to help you now
I'm so close, I'm too close to help you now.
Chorus
Oh, when you gonna wake up?
Oh, standing in your own way
Chorus
Look around,
I see you found
