Today we saw the costal town of Arcachon (feels like a French version of Hollywood Beach in Florida) and the Dune du Pilat, Europe’s largest sand dune, at over 300 feet tall and over a mile and a half long. If you love the beach and fresh oysters, this part of France is for you !

OK maybe this is cheating just a bit because San Sebastián is technically in Spain, but it’s so close to the French border (15 miles) that it makes a great day trip. This city is heavily influenced by the local Basque culture, and the food and scenery is incredible! I highly recommend trying pinxtos, which are the Basque version of tapas.

Biarritz is a seaside resort town on the Atlantic Coast.

Saint-Emilion is a beautiful village with a fascinating history. A famous monk settled here in the 8th century to become a hermit. He dug out a cave residence in the limestone. More monks followed, and eventually there was a monastery and a huge underground church (we visited the church but no photos are allowed). Now it’s famous for wine tourism, with several vineyards surrounding the town, and hundreds more in the region.

Some more Bordeaux pictures.

09/15/2024

There are so many beautiful places in France outside of Paris, and we’ll be exploring some of them over the next few weeks. This is Bordeaux, the fifth largest city in France, famous for its wine. We’re planning some trips for 2025 and 2026…maybe Bordeaux is a place you’d like to visit?

This is Saint Céneri le Gérei, officially listed among the “most beautiful villages in France.”
When you plan a trip with us, we will talk about…
…whether you prefer to visit cities, small villages, or a combination of both.
…whether you prefer famous Michelin-star restaurants or local street food
…whether you want to see museums, take cooking classes, see castles and gardens, take in a sporting event or a concert
…whether you’re an early-riser or a night owl
In short, we talk about everything you need in order to have the France experience that is right for you! Send a message or comment below to start the conversation.

Of course Paris has incredible food, and not just French food. Whatever you like to eat, there is a delicious version in Paris!

Day 9 was our final full day in Paris. In the morning, we visited the traditional artists quarter of Montmartre. Our afternoon activity was a food tour. We sampled chocolate, macarons, crepes, bread, cheese, and of course French wines. In the evening we had a final stroll along the Seine.

07/11/2022

On day 8, we traveled back to Paris. Since trains were cancelled due to a strike, we had to come up with a creative solution. Fortunately, we arrived with enough time to see the spectacular Palais Garnier and go for an evening walk on Place des Vosges.

07/06/2022

This is a cafe gourmand. For dessert, you get a coffee and a selection of 3 treats. This one includes mini-crepes with caramel, a homemade pastry with vanilla ice cream inside, and strawberries with whipped cream on top.

07/06/2022

On day 7 we had a meaningful visit of some of the D-Day beaches and the American cemetery.

07/05/2022

On day 6 we took a train to Normandy, where we saw a 950 year old tapestry and a spectacular cathedral. It's nice to see a small French town; quite a contrast from Paris.

07/04/2022

Day five involved more great food and two of the most famous places in Paris. I highly recommend seeing the sunset from the Eiffel Tower.

07/02/2022

Day 4: The Versailles gardens and some incredible food: pastries, gelato and for a little variety, Thai food!

07/01/2022

Our third day in Paris included Musée d'Orsay, Arc de Triomphe and a traditional crêperie.

07/01/2022

On a rainy second day, we started by visiting the stunning stained glass of Sainte-Chapelle. Then it was on to the contemporary art museum at Centre Pompidou. In the evening, we had dinner at a traditional French restaurant and a boat ride on the Seine.

06/30/2022

We're in Paris! On our arrival day we saw Notre Dame and walked through the Latin Quarter!
