When to go in France?

France's temperate climate makes it a fairly pleasant country to visit all year round, though you do need to bear in mind that it can get very cold in winter, especially in the north and the east, and very hot in summer, particularly in the south. Many French people (and other Europeans) choose to holiday on the Mediterranean coast in August. This can make the price of accommodation particularly high at this time of year, and the most popular and well-known coastal resorts can get very busy. Shops more or less everywhere will be closed for the annual holidays too. So avoid August if you plan to go on a shopping spree!

While we saw an overall trip of the city and more concentrated visits to key sites we did not have sufficient time in 3 full days to see Paris. We will have to have another visit.

We really loved Bordeaux and would definitely visit again! Such a beautiful city and everyone was so friendly. We did a wine tasting in 2 châteaux and got an explanation on how the wine is made. It was really interesting and so peaceful out there. The staff in both places were lovely, and our guide was super friendly and chatty! The local agency arranged it for us rapidly and were very attentive with getting back to us. Everything was handled professionally and we were very happy with what had been chosen. (Our hotel was really beautiful also.) Thanks team!

There were no problems with finding of destination. The best impressions (really so many) - view of Bonifaccio fortress, botanical excursion with Paoline along the cliffs near Bonifaccio, visit of Napoleon memorials in Ajaccio, trips to Holy Balagnia from Calvi and to Cap Corse from Bastia, two days spent in fantastic Corte and extremely interesting travel by narrow gouge Corsica Railway. I can recommend our travel as a base for a regular Evaneous tour - starting from Bonifaccio with the main destinations Corte, Calvi and Bastia plus Porto. Ajaccio may be added in the case of interest in Napoleon sites.
