It’s a favorite destination for cyclists, thanks to its 901 kilometers (560 miles) of cycling paths. You can hire a bicycle and travel between chateaux and towns while enjoying the region’s natural beauty. 

The vineyards are another highlight of a holiday to the Loire Valley, with more than 1,000 open to the public. Bouvet-Ladubay and Plou et Fils are notable vineyards with long histories, fabulous wines, and awe-inspiring scenery. 

A vacation in France would be incomplete without visiting some of Loire Valley’s most prestigious chateaux. Stop by the magnificent Chateau de Chambord and the romantic Chateau de Chenonceau for unforgettable memories. 

Don’t miss the town of Angers, home to the impressive Chateau d’Angers and the world’s largest medieval tapestry.

Normandy

Normandy is a beloved travel destination, rich in history, culture, and natural beauty. The stunning Mont Saint Michel, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, and the picturesque village of Giverny, home to Claude Monet’s house and gardens, are must-see attractions. 

Architecture enthusiasts will appreciate the Romanesque abbeys, ruined chateaux, and the modernist city of La Havre. The Alabaster Coast’s white-chalk cliffs and the natural arches of Etretat provide breathtaking views of the English Channel.

France: Off the beaten track

A tour to France offers much more than just the usual tourist hotspots. Alongside must-see destinations like Paris, you can also visit hidden gems often overlooked by others. 

The French Riviera includes the glamorous cities of Cannes and Nice. Walk along the famous Promenade de la Croisette and admire the luxurious yachts in the harbor. Explore colorful old towns and stunning beaches.

No matter which month you choose to visit, France offers many experiences and attractions. Visit world-renowned tourist attractions from June to August or experience colorful landscapes during fall and spring. Winter sports enthusiasts can enjoy skiing from December to February.

The ideal holiday duration depends on your preferences and interests. A week is typically enough to see Paris and some nearby attractions. Two to three weeks are recommended for a more comprehensive tour.

The most affordable time to visit France is during the low season, from November to March. Flights, accommodations, and activities are generally priced lower during this time.

Paris is beautiful throughout the year, but many consider the spring months of April to June the most beautiful. During this time, the weather is mild, and the city’s gardens and parks are in full bloom with colorful flowers.
