France

A trip to France could mean that you find it hard to work out what you have time to do while you are there!  To help you along, here are a few suggestions that will keep you busy during your stay.

One of the most famous annual events in France is the Tour de France, the largest cycling event in the world.  The route changes every year but if you plan your trip properly you will get the opportunity to see some of the best cyclists in the world ride by.  If you want to do more than watch the cycling you could hire a bike yourself and spend some time exploring the Loire Valley.  There are plenty of medieval chateaux here that you can visit as well as a few vineyards. 

History buffs will love the city of Carcassonne.  This fortified town has been linked with the legends surrounding Mary Magdalene and Jesus Christ and still has a very medieval look to it.   Alternatively head north and visit Brittany, a region of France that has a strong Celtic heritage.  With a unique language this part of the country is very different to the rest and it is a great place for those who enjoy camping and getting back to nature.  Brittany is also home to some of the quaintest fishing villages in France.

Car rental could be the ideal solution if you want to spend some time exploring the south of France.  Provence is home to the lavender fields that create swathes of colour across the region each summer.  A trip to the island of Corsica is also a good option and many people come here to go hiking.   There are hiking trails that will suit all ages and abilities, but the GR20 trail is one of the most famous in the world and it is not for the faint-hearted.

The Palace of Versailles is a must for anyone who has an interest in the French Revolution.  It represents everything that the people hated about the class system in France but now it is one of the country’s top tourist attractions.  The opulence of the palace makes this a fascinating place and it is just a short distance from Paris.  A great alternative to Paris is the city of Lyon.  Hire a car to explore France’s second largest city at your leisure.  There are museums, an old town and some amazing restaurants just waiting for you!
