Enjoy the sights and sounds of France during this 8-day guided tour. Travel to Normandy and stand on the 100-foot-tall Pointe du Hoc, overlooking the beaches where soldiers fought in World War II — and walk with a Local Expert through the American Military Cemetery of Saint-Laurent, near Omaha Beach, where Allied Forces landed on D-Day. Drive through the Loire Valley to the glorious fragrant gardens of Château de Villandry, stopping to smell the basil, rosemary and other herbs grown in its gardens. You’ll remember those scents at a celebration dinner featuring a farm-to-table feast and sparkling wine. See Paris’ top attractions, from the elegant avenue of the Champs-Élysées to the Arc de Triomphe and the iconic Eiffel Tower.
The places visited were fine but the distances between them made trip rushed (very rushed lunch atMont St. Michel) at times. Honfleur was disappointing: lovely old buildings but rather touristy and too many tourists. In Loire area, the Chateau de Villandry was not nearly as beautiful and exciting as Le Chateau d'Azay le Rideau. Below: we are from U.S., NOT Dominican R. The pull down did not work
This is a fast paced tour with much to see! Yannick was a wonderful tour guide and took care of us all the way. He was very knowledgeable on every tour we took. The optional excursions were fantastic and a must do for this trip. Definitely would recommend.
I enjoyed all the locations included in the itinerary and options. Got to see memorials, cathedrals, chateaux and more. Also, enjoyed the time allowed to explore on my own. Our tour director, Yannick, was so passionate about sharing all his information about the stops and the countryside.
This is a jammed packed full on tour wherein one will experience many many interesting sites, sounds and smells. Although the tour is short, my memories will last a lifetime.
