What people love about France Tours in October
- Paris and VersaillesIt was a really good experience. This is my second trip with Eskapas. The first one was a small group tour fully escorted in Italy and it was wonderful. This trip is independent and you are joining at the meeting point to daily group ours. If you have send of orientation, it may be difficult so I recommend yo to take a taxi to reach out to the meeting points. Usually it costs 15-20Euro. The company upgraded our hotel to New Hotel Le Voltaire 4* ,, located in 11th Arrondissement, close to Bastille. It is a correct one, decent breakfast. Don't miss Cimetiere du Pere-Lachaise which is close proximity. 
- French Dream (including Beynac)Loved every minute because of our guide from Europomndo (Mr Jon). We were 5 English speakers and rest were Spanish speaker He translated almost everything for us and made us very welcome. I am sure we will use Europamundo as well as TourRadar again.
