“The Most Beautiful Villages” of France

This tour opens with a relaxing four night cruise onboard the “Cyrano de Bergerac” out of Bordeaux along the Garonne and Dordogne Rivers. We then explore the Southwest area of France and the diverse regions of Aquitane, Dordogne and the Midi Pyrenees. We will visit an interesting blend of larger centres and small villages. We are talking about places that look like you are stepping into a French fairy tale. This image of France is what we often dream about, but have never really gotten to see. We now explore this fairy tale together.
