12-Nights Normandy, Brittany, Paris & the Loire Valley - Land Journey

A château, a 1,000-year-old village and the magic of Paris... inexorably entwined like the woven threads of medieval tapestries... your travels in northern France honor timeless traditions, share stories of valor and courage, and celebrate landscapes so beautiful they are immortalized by artists and poets... Your accommodations are unique, including two nights at Château de Rochecotte - called "home" in the 1700s by Prince Tallyrand and the Duchess of Dino. At Château de Champchevrier, owned by the same family since the 1720s, Le Baron personally welcomes Tauck guests during a private reception and dinner that includes a hunting hounds demonstration in full regalia. Formal gardens inspire awe during your visit to Château de Villandry, and the Brittany Coast is mesmerizing and memorable. Visit Normandy's poignant D-Day beaches, magnificent Mont-St-Michel, and Monet's beloved Giverny. In Paris, Notre Dame Cathedral entices with Gothic wonders; explore Parisian landmark sites; and bid Paris adieu with a farewell dinner at the iconic restaurant Fouquet's.
