Trip date: May 2023 - KPKatie· April 30th, 2023Highly recommend! The guides were amazing. Accommodations/meals/experiences were all wonderful. It is a fast-paced tour, and we are always on the move (granted, often from the stress-free convenience of the luxury bus). I might not recommend this tour if you want long, relaxed visits to each town/location. Once or twice I wished we had more time to stroll through a garden, browse the shops, or sit by the beach. However, if your goal is to make the most of each day and see a wonderful tour of some of France's most extraordinary locations, then this is the tour for you!Show moreInsight Vacations commented on this reviewThank you for sharing your photos and feedback during your trip to France.

Asked on December 19th, 2024Is each night at a hotel, not of the riverboat? How much walking is involved with this cruise?
- Insight VacationsOperator•Written December 2024
The accommodations for this trip are at the hotel rather than on the riverboat. This journey is designed to be balanced, which means you can expect medium distances with some uneven surfaces. Typically, this involves 1-3 miles of walking per day.

Asked on March 11th, 2024I am interested in the "Normanby, Brittany & The Loire Valley (Classic, 8 Days)" vacation for 6 people (4 adults and 2 children (ages 12 & 13). We would like to book the tour starting on Saturday, April 13. We actually live in Paris, so we do not need to book hotel rooms in Paris. Would it be possible to book the tour without the Paris hotel? If so, what would be the per person cost?
- Insight VacationsOperator•Written March 2024
All our tours are tailored to include hotel accommodation and unfortunately one cannot book without including the accommodation as well as the tour will be in different locations, regrettable the start of each day is something that is curated by the Tour Director and would start and end at the hotel.

Ahmed
Traveler•Written March 2024We would stay in all of the hotels except for Paris. We could ensure that we would be at the designated hotel in the morning and end at the hotel. Any chance we could make this work?
- Insight VacationsOperator•Written March 2024
Kindly note that if you will not be staying at the hotels in Paris, you will be charged the full tour price.
