France
Undoubtedly our most popular destination. France is our closest neighbour, and we share a rich and colourful history of conflict and friendship. Most groups head either for Paris (naturally) or the northern coast – the Opal Coast, Seine Maritime or Normandy. And there are plenty of things to do and see to keep your group entertained and fascinated in all of them.
But don’t forget, if you are prepared to travel a little bit further there are other, less well known, destinations to consider. Brittany with its distinctive language and culture, and the Loire Valley in the west, the French Alps with easy access to Switzerland in the east, and Nîmes or Lourdes in the south - to name but a few.
