France
Why France?
France has everything. It has Paris of course but not only…France, also has sandy beaches, mountains, big cities, and vast countryside. Our country offers a variety of destinations with a mixture of local flavors and age-long cultures.
- Paris is ranked as one of the top five most visited cities in the world. Within the span of one day, you can look at thousands of years of history, board a romantic cruise, shop, visit museums, eat delicious meals, see iconic monuments such as Eiffel Tower, Notre Dame de Paris, or Montmartre, look at contemporary art throughout the city.
- France has a long and rich history. Indeed, the country counts 49 sites listed on Unesco’s World Heritage.
- A journey in France is also an opportunity to scent the French “Art de Vivre” and have a taste of the famous French gastronomy.
- What is a meal without a good glass of wine? The country is renowned worldwide for the excellence of its vineyards which offer breathtaking landscapes and delicious tasting.
- With almost 10 000 museums and exhibition sites all around the country, culture and art are intrinsically French.
- Coco Chanel, Yves Saint-Laurent, Jean-Paul Gautier, Hermès, Louis Vuitton… France is irrefutably the capital of fashion: creation, luxury, and arts & crafts.
