Individual tours to France

Normandy offers incredible architecture, a majestic ocean, and a gastronomic paradise. Leaving Paris in the morning, we'll head to the city of a hundred bell towers—Rouen, famous for its Gothic cathedrals. We'll visit Rouen Cathedral, built between the 13th and 16th centuries and immortalized in Monet's paintings, the square where Joan of Arc was executed, and the original modern church dedicated to her. We'll also visit the 16th-century Palais de Justice and admire the amazing antique clock on the pedestrian Rue de la Gros-Horloge.

Our next destination is Honfleur (approximately 90 km from Rouen). Here we'll check into our hotel and stroll around the town. We'll also be sure to stop by the atmospheric port—a true gem of Honfleur, with its truly French charm. Honfleur was once one of Normandy's most important port cities, playing a major role in the region's defense. In the 19th century, it served as an inspiration for artists, and today it's a cozy resort town. We'll end our day in Honfleur with a tasting of local cheese, aromatic Calvados, or cider.

To continue exploring Normandy, we'll head to Mont Saint-Michel Bay (~150 km). Here, in a stunningly picturesque location, lies a medieval town with narrow streets and a majestic Benedictine abbey built between the 8th and 13th centuries. During the walk, your guide will tell you about the history and legends of Mont Saint-Michel, which has rightfully earned the title "The Eighth Wonder of the World" and is one of the most visited locations in all of France. As we ascend to the top of the island, you'll enjoy panoramic views of the Atlantic Ocean.

We'll then leave Normandy and head to the neighboring region of Brittany. Our first stop in Brittany will be the port town of Cancale, which also offers views of the Bay of Saint-Michel. Cancale is famous above all for its bustling oyster markets: we'll stroll through them, buy the freshest oysters from local fishermen, and sample them right there at the market stalls. We'll then head to Saint-Malo (~18 km), where we'll check into our hotel.

We begin the day with a tour of Saint-Malo. This city, steeped in history and located on the English Channel, is inextricably linked to the sea. This city of corsairs is the birthplace of Jacques Cartier, the explorer who discovered Canada, and the poet Chateaubriand, one of the first Romantics. The old town is surrounded by well-preserved ramparts, and while strolling through the narrow cobbled streets, you can see numerous 18th-century buildings. We'll also visit the Château, built in the 14th and 15th centuries.

We'll then head to Dinard, one of Brittany's fashionable resorts, and then to Dinan, a beautiful medieval town where time seems to stand still. In Dinan, we'll explore ancient wood and stone houses, including one over 500 years old, as well as 13th-century fortifications, and stroll through the Old Town. It's a cozy, tranquil place, free from the hustle and bustle. Afterwards, we'll return to Saint-Malo.

France is renowned for its exquisite cuisine and wine. We invite you to explore the most iconic sites of French gastronomic and wine culture. You'll visit numerous towns and villages: Chablis, nestled among vineyards and home to prestigious white wines, and Beaune, where, in addition to tasting Burgundy wines, you can visit a snail farm or black truffle farm (depending on the season).

You'll travel along the Grand Cru Wine Route, visiting the villages of Aloxe-Corton and Vosne-Romanée, home to the world's most prized vineyards. You'll sample mustard and herb bread in Dijon, taste authentic Champagne in the Champagne region, and discover the treasures of the "Troyes sausage" in the town of the same name. In Épernay, you'll drive along the main street lined with the largest Champagne houses and visit the cellars of the largest and most famous producer, Moët et Chandon. The Champagne Route will take us to Reims, the historic capital of the Champagne region. Here, we'll visit the majestic Notre-Dame Cathedral, the coronation site of French monarchs, and sample a local dessert—pink "Reims biscuits."

We'll take you to Saint-Émilion, one of France's finest red wine regions, by high-speed train from Paris to Bordeaux (2 hours) or by helicopter. Here, you'll enjoy tours and wine tastings at a prestigious Grand Cru estate and a charming family-run estate that has preserved its traditions and authenticity. A wine tasting masterclass will also be included during your visit.

In addition to visiting the vineyards, we'll take a tour of the UNESCO World Heritage village of Saint-Émilion, where you'll enjoy a French aperitif amid the vineyards, prepared with delicacies from the local market. For lunch, we'll invite you to a traditional restaurant. In the evening, you can return to Bordeaux, the capital of Aquitaine, for a guided stroll through the historic center.

The Médoc is like a vast open-air wine cellar! This wine-growing region in the Bordeaux region produces the most exquisite wines. Château Margaux, Saint-Julien, Pauillac, Saint-Estèphe… All these wines, beloved by connoisseurs, originate in the Médoc. Even the road signs leading to towns here resemble wine labels! During your visit to the Médoc region, you'll enjoy a private tour and tasting at two wine-producing châteaux, a prestigious Grand Cru Classe château and a family-run estate brimming with charm and authenticity.

When talking about the Médoc, it's impossible not to mention its magnificent views: atmospheric ancient châteaux and endless vineyards under the gentle sun. The Route des Châteaux, the cozy town of Lesparre-Médoc with its majestic pointed church and organ dating back to 1881, the cozy resorts and pine forests of the Landes du Médoc, and much more await you throughout your journey through this amazing region.

The Côte d'Azur is one of France's calling cards, a sunny southern region with a unique atmosphere. World-famous cities like Nice, Cannes, Saint-Tropez, and Antibes are located here. Each town and resort on the French Riviera has its own unique character and its own attractions.

Among the symbols of Nice are the Promenade des Anglais, the Chagall Museum, the Castle Hill with its best panoramic views of the city, the Russian Cathedral, and the Cours Saleya flower market. Cannes, of course, is primarily known for its legendary film festival, red carpets with smiling movie stars, unforgettable parties, and a never-ending celebration. Antibes is home to the world's wealthiest people: luxurious villas and mansions rise in its center, while the suburbs bustle with numerous social events. Saint-Tropez is well known from old French films starring Brigitte Bardot and Louis de Funès, and art lovers come here for the Pablo Picasso Museum.
