Paris
Paris is regarded as one of the most dynamic cities in Europe, and for good reason. The city assaults the senses, demanding to be seen, heard, touched, tasted, and smelled. Gaze at impressive monuments and savor its gourmet cheeses, chocolates, wines, and seafood. Paris is relatively small as capitals go, with many of its major sights and museums within walking distance of each other. A world of discovery awaits in every hidden corner and at all the famous sites, there is so much to explore.
Visit the Eiffel Tower, Louvre Museum, Arc de Triomphe, Notre Dame Cathedral, Jardin des Tuileries, Latin Quarter, Avenue des Champs Elysees, Musee d'Orsay, Place de la Concorde, Sacre Coeur, and so much more! -
Honfleur
At the mouth of the Seine opposite Le Havre, Honfleur is one of Normandy's most charming fishing villages. It is 500 years older than Le Havre, dating from the 11th century. It is especially known for its picturesque port, painted many times by Impressionist artists like Gustave Courbet, Claude Monet and Johan Jongkind. The main sights in town are the 17th century Bassin and the Lieutenance buildings, and the church of Sainte Catherine.
Visit and explore Saint Catherine's Catholic Church, Pont de Normandie, Maisons Satie, Musee Eugene Boudin, and more! -
Mont Saint Michel
A magical island topped by a gravity-defying medieval monastery, Mont-Saint-Michel is one of France's most stunning sights. For centuries it has been one of Europe's major pilgrimage destinations, and is now a UNESCO World Heritage Site along with its breathtaking bay. Perched on a rocky, cone-shaped islet in the midst of immense sandbanks, the site, dedicated to the archangel St Michael, is surrounded by massive walls measuring more than half a mile in circumference and is connected to the shore by a causeway.
Visit Abbaye du Mont Saint-Michel, the ramparts, Grand Rue, La Mère Poulard (Restaurant), Mont Saint-Michel Pilgrimages, Musée Historique (History Museum), Musée de la Mer et de l'Écologie (Museum of the Sea and Ecology), and so much more! -
Tours
Situated at the confluence of the Loire and Cher rivers, Tours is an excellent base for visiting the region's magnificent châteaux. The original home of the French language and the 'art de vivre', Tours has a modern, lively center with a thriving university. Experience the city's charm by visiting the old quarter, the cathedral, Saint-Gatien, whose flamboyant Gothic facade is flanked by towers with 12th-century bases and Renaissance tops, as well as the Touraine Wine Museum, the fine-arts museum, and Plessis les Tours.
Explore the Old Quarter and Pilgrims, Place Plumereau, Priory Saint-Cosme, Saint-Gatien Cathedral, La Psalette Cloisters, Saint-Martin Basilica, Botanical Garden of Tours, Museum of the Compagnonnage, markets, châteaus, and so much more! -
