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, Arc de Triomphe and so much more! -
Chartres
Chartres, just to the south-west of Paris, is a destination filled with examples of architecture and nods to history that make it an excellent place to visit while in France. And for good reason, because its an outstanding piece of medieval heritage and listed by UNESCO. If you are keen enough you may need half a day or more to get to the bottom of the sculpture and stained glass windows. The cathedral is what springs to mind when most people think of Chartres.
Admire Chartres Cathedral, Maison Picassiette, Museum of Fine Arts in Chartres, Conservatoire de l'Agriculture Le Compa, Eglise Saint Aignan, Banks of the Eure Park, Eglise Saint Pierre Chartres, Chapelle Saint Piat and much more. -
Le Mans
Le Mans means racing: The venerated 24 Hour of Le Mans is still going strong almost a century after the first race. Motorsport lovers can pay homage at the track, and even drive parts of it as the course uses public roads. The city has been a constituent of the Pays de la Loire region. The city has been the host of the internationally popular 24 Hours of Le Mans since 1923. The inhabitants of this city are known as Mancelles and Manceaux.
Admire the Cathedral of Saint Julian of Le Mans, Museum of the 24 Hours of Le Mans, Musee de Tesse, Papea Park, Theodore Monod Park, Musee Vert and much more. -
Tours
Situated at the junction 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 is a land of harmony and proportion. Today, it is a modern, lively centre; with a thriving university, cultivating economic development. You can taste its charm visiting the old quarter, the Gothic Cathedral of St. Gatien, Touraine Wine Museum, the fine-arts museum and Plessis les Tours. Expore 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!
