Travel from Paris to the D-Day Landing Beaches of Normandy and on to the beautiful Loire Valley on this in-depth France and Normandy tour.
Imagine life as a French noble as you are welcomed to a 17th-century château and learn about the battles that were fought here through the ages. From the glitter of the Eiffel Tower to the solemn silence of Omaha Beach, this journey covers the essential treasures of French history and culture.
Bienvenue! The 'City of Light' welcomes you as you prepare to embark on an unforgettable journey through France. Join your fellow travelers and Travel Director this afternoon for an orientation drive to admire the glittering cityscape of Paris – past grand boulevards and iconic sites like the Champs-Élysées and the Arc de Triomphe. Get to know your traveling companions over dinner this evening.
Leave Paris behind and travel to Rouen, the historic city where Joan of Arc was burnt at the stake. After exploring its atmospheric streets, continue to Distillerie Busnel, one of Normandy’s oldest working distilleries (since 1820). Learn about the craft of Calvados production and enjoy a tasting. Changing pace, arrive in Honfleur, a charming harbor town known for its colorful shopfronts that inspired many painters.
Today is dedicated to the poignant D-Day Landing Beaches. Visit the American Rangers Memorial at Pointe du Hoc and pay tribute to the brave souls at Omaha Beach. Imagine the mingled sense of terror and triumph felt on that fateful day. Stop for lunch in Arromanches, the setting for the Mulberry Harbor.
Travel through the Normandy countryside to the UNESCO World Heritage-listed bay of Mont-Saint-Michel. Your Local Specialist reveals the history of the impressive medieval Benedictine Abbey perched on the hilltop. In Brittany, enjoy the afternoon your way—perhaps discovering the beauty of Saint-Malo.
Journey through scenic countryside to the Loire Valley. The highlight today is a Be My Guest experience: walk among wild hyacinths in the gardens of the 17th-century Chateau d'Eporce and enjoy a lunch with local wines and home-cooked specialties created by the chateau’s resident culinary expert, Lydia.
Start with a sweet treat tasting hand-crafted chocolate at Maison Bigot (Make Travel Matter® Experience). Then, admire the Amboise Royal Château, where King François I hosted Leonardo da Vinci. Continue to the Château de Chenonceau, the 'Ladies Castle', built over the Cher River, featuring Renaissance furniture and masterpieces by Rubens.
Stop in the town of Chartres to see its beautiful Roman Catholic cathedral, a masterpiece of 13th-century religious architecture. Journey back to Paris this afternoon. Celebrate with your Travel Director and newfound friends this evening at a farewell dinner with local wines at a Parisian bistro.
It's time to say a fond au revoir to France and your fellow travelers at the end of a memorable trip. Transfer information will be advised after the release of the 2027 brochure.
