The Charms of France Await

France, a land rich in history and diverse in culture, beckons with its iconic landmarks and hidden gems. Whether you're drawn to the romantic aura of Paris or the sun-drenched beaches of the Côte d'Azur, escorted tours of France provide a seamless way to experience the country's many facets.

Imagine exploring the sweeping vineyards of Bordeaux, where you can sip on some of the world's finest wines, or wandering through the lavender fields of Provence, a palette of purple hues that stretch as far as the eye can see. Each region has its own unique flavour, waiting to be discovered.

Cultural Splendour on Every Corner

On a France vacation package, cultural immersion takes centre stage. Encounter the resplendent art and architecture of France's past within the hallowed halls of the Louvre, or delight in modern marvels such as the Centre Pompidou. Delve into the craftsmanship of local artisans in picturesque villages, where time seems to stand still.

The French have perfected the art of joie de vivre, and there's no better place to experience this than at one of the country’s many festivals. From the colourful Nice Carnival in winter to the world-renowned Cannes Film Festival in spring, these events offer a glimpse into the heart of French society.

A Gastronomic Journey

No journey to France would be complete without indulging in its culinary delights. From the creamy cheeses and crusty baguettes to the exquisitely cooked coq au vin, each meal is a testament to the country's rich gastronomic heritage. In gastronomic capitals like Lyon and Paris, food becomes an art form, with dishes crafted to tantalize both the eye and the palate.

For those with a sweet tooth, a wander through Parisian patisseries will reveal rows of vibrant macarons and delicate pastries, each more tempting than the last. Sampling these treats is not just a meal, but a moment to savour the finer things in life.

Guided Adventures and Personal Discoveries

Group trips to France are designed to showcase iconic destinations while leaving room for personal discoveries. With the expertise of a knowledgeable guide, visitors can explore with ease, whether walking the historic battlefields of Normandy or cycling through the Loire Valley's majestic châteaux. These escorted tours of France ensure a balance of structured exploration and personal leisure.

Opting for a curated France vacation package means you won't miss out on essential experiences while still having the freedom to venture off the beaten path. Whether it's a quiet afternoon spent in a Provençal market or catching a sunset from atop Montmartre, each moment is an opportunity to create lasting memories.

Practical Tips for Your French Journey

  • Learn a few phrases: While many French people speak English, learning basic phrases in French can enhance your interactions and demonstrate respect for local culture.
  • Plan for the seasons: Consider the weather and seasonal events when planning your trip. Spring and autumn offer mild temperatures and vibrant landscapes, while summer is perfect for coastal adventures.
  • Respect local customs: Familiarizing yourself with local etiquette, such as greeting practices and dining manners, will enrich your experience.

Embark on Your French Adventure

The lure of France is timeless and universal, appealing to seasoned travellers and first-time visitors alike. With its captivating blend of history, culture, and gastronomy, France promises a journey that satisfies all senses. Whether you're travelling solo or with companions, opting for guided or escorted tours of France ensures you get the most out of every moment.

So, why wait? Embark on a journey that inspires and rejuvenates. Explore the many shades of France, from the gilded halls of Versailles to the bustling markets of Marseille. Each corner of this enchanting land tells a story, and your next adventure is just waiting to be discovered.

Michael Keon arranged our recent trip to Malta. I gave him a rough outline of what we were looking for and he responded quickly making great suggestions, offering alternatives as needed and booking everything. The hotel, excursions and transport he arranged were all exactly what we hoped for. We will be asking Michael to book our future European vacations. Mayssa Mirshak

Our first trip with Goway was a total joy. Shalini worked with me to plan a trip for 5 adults to Portugal. She is a gem! Always responded quickly and offered great suggestions for activities, worked with our preferences and created an ideal itinerary for a week in Porto and Lisbon. The tours were excellent with engaging local guides. The food tour in Lisbon was a highlight. Everything was top notch - flight schedule, hotels, activities, even the weather! Patricia

It is with the utmost pleasure and heartfelt appreciation that I share my exceptional experience working with Taha Colombowala, Goway's distinguished Groups Specialist. Our journey together began in October 2023, when Taha took the helm in orchestrating what was to be a remarkable group trip to Ghana. When unforeseen circumstances necessitated a change in plans, Taha demonstrated his extraordinary expertise by recommending Morocco as an alternative destination — a suggestion that proved to be nothing short of absolutely brilliant! From the very first interaction to the final farewell, Taha has been a consummate professional in every sense of the word. His lightning-fast response times, encyclopedic knowledge of destinations, and remarkable ability to pivot seamlessly under pressure are truly second to none. What sets Taha apart, however, is not only his professional acumen but also his warm, patient, and genuinely enthusiastic attitude toward accommodating the unique needs and personalities of every member of our group. Taha Colombowala is, without question, a shining star within the Goway family, and an extraordinary ambassador for everything the brand represents. I cannot recommend him highly enough — he has exceeded every expectation and then some. Working with Taha has been an absolute privilege, and I look forward to many more incredible adventures ahead!DESIREE DUCKETT

We recently completed a custom Vietnam tour organized by Goway, and it was everything we asked for and more. We would definitely choose Goway again. The true highlights of our trip, however, were our two guides: Vu Dang and Thien. They truly made our experience unforgettable. Both were incredibly knowledgeable, thoughtful, and kind. Their pride in their Vietnamese heritage shone through in every conversation, making our learning experience both deep and engaging. We learned so much in such a short time, and it was always fascinating. I would highly recommend these two guides to anyone visiting Vietnam!Laura Derbyshire

Everything was expertly planned, from the drivers to the hotels to the tours to the flights. We particularly enjoyed Hobart and the animal sanctuary, Adelaide and the trip to Kangaroo Island, Melbourne and the evening tour with dinner and drinks, and Sydney with the private boat cruise of the Harbour. We will definitely use Goway again.SARA Wiebe

There were 4 travelers on this trip. All of us were in our late 70's. We started planning this trip 6 months prior to our travel date and had a lot of questions regarding this trip. Our Goway Travel Specialist, Karen Larrota, always answered our questions in a timely and complete manner. We traveled to Quito, Ecuador, the Galapagos, The Sacred Valley in Peru, Machu Picchu, and Cusco in Peru. Not only were the destinations and accommodations excellent, but every tour guide and driver were beyond excellent. The entire trip went smoothly every step of the way, which was amazing given the fact that there were numerous flights and hotels included in our package. We found out that the tour company that Goway used, Condor Travel, checked on us with our guide to make sure we were doing OK which we thought was very nice but also amusing as we are fairly fit older adults. Would also like to mention that we did a cruise thru the Galapagos on the Galapagos Legend which was arranged thru Go Galapagos - Kleintouurs. This portion of our tour was also excellent as were the wildlife guides and staff. We continue to discuss how wonderful this trip was with our family and friends and how wonderful this experience was. Would definately use Goway for our travel needs in the future.Dianne

After spending some time with our agent, we felt that she understood exactly what we had in mind as far as the level of service, etc, we were hoping for. The trip exceeded our expectations. Lori kept us busy(not too busy!) and we had many, many very exciting experiences. Bruce Belshaw

Aylin is an exceptionally proficient advisor. Coordinating my clients simultaneously often feels like herding cats, but she has remained patient and accommodating through every modification and delay. Goway continues to be my go-to for complex itineraries, and they never disappoint.Nick Cron, ACC
