France Holidays

From sizzling summer beaches, to beautiful cities and world-class vineyards, it shouldn’t really come as a surprise to learn that France tops the list of most-visited holiday destinations in the world. Whether you’re looking for a quiet family getaway to enjoy the simple pleasures of good food, countryside walks and days out by the sea, a culture-filled city break or a winter ski-trip, France has so much to offer.

No holiday in France would be complete without a visit to Paris. Known as the ‘city of light’, the metropolis has an immediate beauty and has inspired generations of artists and writers. Paris may be a relatively small city, but you could dedicate a lifetime to exploring all of its cultural gems. At the centre of the city, The Louvre stands out as the largest museum in the world; an entire week would not allow enough time to study all of its collections. The Eiffel Tower is also a big draw for visitors: a global and cultural icon of France and a sparkling emblem of kitsch.

During the summer months, the French flock to the south of France to make the most of the warm weather and beautiful beaches. Follow the crowd and you’ll be rewarded with long and lazy days, the smell of Pastis and strong coffee. In winter you can’t beat the country’s ski resorts. Endless powder slopes and a fabulous après-ski vibe ensure visitors return year after year.
