a visitors' guide to France
and
travelling in france

This VISITORS' GUIDE is developed by a dedicated professional travel writer and photographer, with the aim of helping you to plan and enjoy your visits to this remarkable country.

Planning a visit is made easier with our comprehensive travel database and our analysis of the many aspects of France, brought to you by the critical eye of an experienced Francophile. Through our knowledge we want you to discover not only mainstream action, but places that are off-the-beaten-track, and, maybe, a little unusual.

Explore the regions, visit the cities and towns, enjoy the most beautiful villages, and learn how to get there, how to get around, where to stay, and where to eat. Check out the country's natural beauty, the wonderful beaches, its magnificent coastline, as well as the high mountains of the Pyrenees, the Alps and the Auvergne. Taste your way through regional and local dishes, and quaff the wines and spirits for which the country is rightly renowned.

Follow in the footsteps of prehistoric man, of pilgrims and martyrs; enjoy the music and art, the cultures, festivals and frivolities, and, above all, the remarkable luminescence of light that so enthralled artists, past and present. And what better way to do it than in the company of an award-winning journalist with an eye for the unusual and a taste for the best.
