    It was such a pleasure to sit at a cozy little café on the streets of Paris, enjoying a quality cup of coffee while watching the world go by. I had initially thought this was a dream I wouldn't be able to fulfill because the tour would be too packed. While it was indeed busy, I’m happy there were moments of free time. A big thank you to our guide and driver as well! Until next time!

    We started with the stunning landmarks of Paris and then moved on to the historical beauty of Rouen and Honfleur. The Normandy Beaches were a poignant reminder of history, and Mont Saint Michel was simply magical! I was especially impressed by the charming villages we passed through. The itinerary was well-balanced between guided tours and free time, allowing us to explore at our own pace. It was a wonderful trip, and I’d recommend it to anyone looking to see the best of France!

    The tour was overall very enjoyable, and the destinations were stunning. Camile was a fantastic guide, always enthusiastic and full of fascinating insights, and Pierre handled the driving with great care. My only minor issue was that some of the hotel rooms felt a bit smaller than expected, which made it a little less comfortable. However, the itinerary was rich, and we got to see so much of France in just six days. Despite the small hiccup, I had a great time and would recommend the tour to others.

    Pierre, our driver, was fantastic, always on time and navigating the narrow roads like a pro. The stops were all well worth it, especially Mont Saint Michel, which was unforgettable. I would gladly take another tour with Eskapas!

    Camile was always on hand to explain the history behind each stop, and Pierre was an excellent driver, navigating some tricky routes with ease. My favorite day had to be the visit to the Loire Valley castles—it felt like stepping into a fairy tale. The pace was fast, but it was worth it to see so much of France!

    What I loved most about this tour was the perfect balance between guided activities and free time. We had structured days to explore iconic places like Mont Saint Michel and the Loire Valley castles, but there was also enough personal time to wander and take everything in at our own pace. The tour wasn’t rushed, and I never felt overwhelmed. The staff was friendly, and our guide Camille always had great tips for where to go during our free time. An overall fantastic experience!
