While Paris readily comes to mind as the iconic French experience, France has many hidden gems that will take your breath away. Brittany is both dramatic and quaint at the same time. Its stunning beaches with turquoise waters rival the Caribbean. Medieval walled villages and megalithic sites abound, all wrapped up in a thriving Celtic cultural heritage.

The lure of the Loire Valley is the magnificent storybook chateaux that dot the countryside, magnificent world-class wines, spectacular scenery and a rich history.

The Dordogne, Land of 1001 Castles, is simply pure magic. With rolling hills, lush forests and massive cliffs as its backdrop, this region is the ideal place to experience French history and culture. Known as the Prehistoric Capital of France, there are more than 200 Paleolithic sites including Lascaux Cave, a UNESCO site filled with more than 600 prehistoric paintings. What visit to France wouldn't include Bordeaux, the Wine Capital of France? And there's chocolate, too.

“In France we have a saying, ‘Joie de vivre,’

which actually doesn’t exist in the English language.

It means looking at your life as something that is to be taken

with great pleasure and enjoy it."
