France Travel Guide
France, the largest country in Western Europe, has so much to offer, and does everything in style: sprawling medieval castles, evocative war memorials, divine chic restaurants, stunning modern architecture and a glittering Riviera. From the golden vineyards of Provence to the frosted Alpine glades or a buzzing shopping spree in Paris, France has entertained thousands of guests for generations.
Millions of people can't be wrong, and that's where to begin when planning your luxury vacation to the most visited country in the world. Whether you're a seasoned veteran of the Riviera or a newbie ready to explore everything from castles to chardonnay, the choices are endless when it comes to France. The capital, Paris, is widely considered the romantic city in the world and is a hub of history, culture, fashion and cuisine. Spend an afternoon at the Musee d'Orsay and stroll along the Seine, gazing at the Tour d'Eiffel. Stay in a luxury apartment overlooking the most fashionable city in the world and enjoy the tantalizing fragrance of freshly made crepes from the patisseries (bakeries) lining the boulevards.
The lavender fields of Provence allure discerning travelers to the luxury private villas nestled into the quiet valleys spilling into the glamorous Côte d'Azur. From here the adventure leads to the glamorous French Riviera, home to legendary hotspots like Saint-Tropez, Cannes, Antibes and Villefranche-sur-Mer, the places to see and be seen in exclusive restaurants and fabulous boutiques. The villages, boulevards and seascapes of southern France blend together like a dreamy Monet painting, full of rich greens, blue skies and lilac blossoms. As the winter chill snows across the country, the French Alps warm up to the international jetset slicing through fresh powder at Chamonix, Mont Blanc and Courchevel. The luxury ski resorts in France are prominent on the winter sports scene, attracting three Olympic Games to the soaring mountains and deluxe luxury hotels.
The central region of France is quiet and deeply beautiful. Medieval castles are sprinkled across the verdant Loire Valley, overlooking unassuming villages and local treats. Known as the Garden of France, meandering through the Loire Valley is like walking back in time through an incredible cultural landscape of historic towns and grand chateaux. Popular stops include Tours, Orléans and Blois as well as famed castles like the Château de Chambord or Chenonceau. Along the western regions are the rugged coasts of Normandy and pastoral hillsides. Explore hidden gems off the beaten path like Le Perche, a hilly landscape of lush orchards and romantic meadows. As most head to Chartres or Amiens for the famous cathedrals, Le Perche offers cozy private villas and and unspoiled quality rarely found in this popular country. Say what you will about France, but for luxury travel c'est magnifique!
