Discover magnificent views, take a café at a Parisian terrace, enjoy the rich cultural scene, go shopping at Champs-Elysées, and visit France’s Icon, the Eiffel Tower!

Le Mont saint Michel, the city of wine Bordeaux, the French Riviera la Côte d’Azur and the Valley de la Loire and its Castles are probably in the top 10 of must see places in France.
