Raid was an excellent guide. The pace of the trip was overall really good considering the distance traveled. There were too many breathtaking sights to narrow down a favorite. The food was great all around as well. Outside seats for dinner in Roma are the best.

We enjoyed the entire experience with no difficulties. Our guide, Margaret was phenomenal…kind, very knowledgeable and had a sweet mothering softness about her. Our trip to Vall Nuria was a highlight…incredible experience.

Villefrance de Conflent Roses itself had little of interest. I suppose that people interested in the beach would find it more to their liking. For me, Figueres seemed a more logical hub, closer to the trips into the Pyrenees.

Why take a tour of France
France is easy to underestimate as a touring country, because most people picture Paris and stop there. The rewards are spread much wider, from the chateaux strung along the Loire to the D-Day beaches of Normandy, the lavender and Roman ruins of Provence and the vineyards of Burgundy and Bordeaux. Reaching them in one trip is what makes a tour worth it. A coach loop out of Paris links a dozen towns you would struggle to string together by train, the driving and the hotels are booked, and a guide fills in the history at each stop rather than leaving you with a guidebook. One route can run from the galleries of Paris through the abbey island of Mont Saint-Michel to a chateau in the Loire, all planned before you arrive.

How long in France?
When is the best time to visit France?
Spring and autumn are the sweet spot, with mild days, quieter sights and comfortable touring weather across Paris, the Loire and Provence. Summer is warm and lively, though the cities and the Riviera get busy. Winter is cool and quiet, and the season for Alpine skiing and the Christmas markets of Alsace.
Temperature figures are day-and-night averages for Paris and central France, so afternoons feel several degrees warmer, and the south always runs hotter than the north.
Before you go
A few practical tips to help you travel smart and make the most of your time in France.

Capital
Paris
Plugs
Type C / E
Two round pins, 230V01
Money
France uses the Euro. Cards and contactless are accepted almost everywhere, though it helps to carry a little cash for small bakeries, markets and rural cafes. Tipping is modest, since service is usually included, so rounding up or leaving a little for good service is enough.
02
What to pack
Light layers and comfortable shoes for cobbled old towns and long days of sightseeing. Bring a light jacket for cool spring and autumn evenings, sun protection in summer, and something a little smarter if you plan to eat out in the cities.
03
Food & drink
Meals are structured, with lunch around midday and dinner rarely before half past seven. Bakeries and markets are everywhere and worth seeking out. Tap water is safe and free in restaurants if you ask for a carafe d'eau.
04
Safety
France is a safe country to travel in. The main thing to watch is pickpocketing in busy tourist spots and on the Paris metro, so keep an eye on your belongings in crowds and on public transport.
