Entrée to France & the French
France has cast its spell on countless travellers, earning it the reputation as the most popular destination in Europe. Its irresistible appeal lies in the diversity and accessibility of its attractions: whether they be natural, historical or cultural.
Some are drawn to the rugged coastlines of the Atlantic in the north with its historic war sites; ancient stone menhirs and dolmens; and misty memories of King Arthur and folklore. Others favour Provence in the south, with its warm, vibrant colours and sandy beaches, washed by the Mediterranean. Steeped in history as it is, France beckons many to the magnificent châteaux of the Loire region, testimony to a fascinating past and in stark contrast to the charming rural villages with their narrow, cobbled streets, shuttered houses and lively marketplaces.
In a country whose wine and food are legendary, it would be unforgivable not to visit Champagne, Burgundy, Beaujolais (in the east) or Bordeaux (in the west) .... and, of course, savouring the culinary delights of the distinctive regional dishes wherever you go is mandatory. In Paris, between visits to see the works of the Great Masters, there may even be time to explore the wonderful world of haute couture, perfume and a little self-indulgent shopping.
