Description of type of walking path is rocky brick gravel any hills.

A better more specific description for the Frenc fashion I was anticipating sometime of Actual fashion show or demonstration on how to wear certain items like accessories and design schools or methods. The walking tour did not include much fashion which is one of my interest since I lived to elsewhere and create Designs.

Maybe the description luxurious sets the tone of much more lavish setting and food presentation The meal was good but I had higher expectations because of the term luxurious

Beautiful scenery of surroundings of the water Was expecting a calmer ride and I thought we were going to get off the boat without getting into water and thought was a landing to walk on after off the boat. I thought was going to be on a larger boat rather than a mother boat with know covering for a senior was a little choppy ride that distracted from enjoying the ride.

This small hotel was delightful and the staff was always helpful when we needed recommendations on things to do. It's location right across the street from St. Michel was a bonus. The atmosphere every evening for happy hour was fantastic taking place on the plaza in front of the church steps. The bartender made some amazing craft cocktails and we enjoyed sitting and people watching as we wound down our evening.

Great location and fantastic large room. Most importantly, air conditioned! We happened to be in Tours France during an early heat wave and coming back after touring wineries and having dinner to a comfortable air conditioned room was most appreciated. David and the staff were friendly and accommodating during our three night stay.

This dinner was fantastic and we were treated to a window seat that looked out over the central plaza and river bank. Food and wine were amazing and the cheese course for dessert featured a delicious selection of interesting cheese varieties.

Our guide was delightful and our first wine tasting was great with the winery staff taking time to explain the wines and the process of how the wines were grown, produced and bottled. Our second tasting stop was more of a hard sell on the owners preference for the sparkling wine they produced. Lunch was provided there and it was a great selection of cheese, charcuterie and fresh salad with a nice red wine paring. Saint -Emilion was amazing but we were only allowed 45 mins before we needed to be back to meet the driver for our return to Bordeaux.

Our guide, Marion, for the tour of the amazing Castle Azay-le-Rideau, the Vouvray wine tour and the Chateau Villandry was amazing. She was so knowledgeable and was obviously a subject matter expert on the history and lifestyle of people who inhabited the Caste and Chateau.

This tour was worth the short train ride from Tours to Amboise. The castle and Da Vinci's resting place and home were very enlightening.

Hela was so engaging and knowledgeable about the history of Bordeaux and took us on a walking tour of some great local wine and culinary shops.

Our guide for this private tour was a former Lieutenant Colonel in the French army and current winery co-owner. Very knowledgeable and took the time to take us first to the vinyard to explain the cultivation, pruning and harvesting of grapes before taking us to the wine cave for a tasting. This was a hightlig for us and we learned so much about appelations, terrior, and thcuteriee types of grapes allowed in the production of wines in the Lorre Valley. The tasting in the cave was accomapnied by a great selection of Cheeses. Really enjoyed this tour.

We wished we had alloted more time to tour this museum. It's multimedia and interactive exhibits were immersive and informative. Our wine tasting experience there was top notch and an experience not to be missed.

Our guide was delightful and knowledgeable but the trip was short and it's highlights were really just the history of the bridges we passed beneath and some overview of the architectural rules governing development and restoration of the city's building facdes. We schduled this for the afternoon after Cite du Vin and wished we had spent more time at Cite du Vin

I would ABSOLUTELY recommend this place to stay!!! It was a beautiful setting and the staff could not have been more accommodating and nice. The woman who greeted us who expressed sincere enthusiasm that we were there, the gentlemen (I think Andre was his name) who managed all our luggage, the staff who helped us figure out how to turn our shower on [;)], all seemed to want to provide a great stay for us, and they succeeded!

The hotel was perfectly situated... close enough the the center hub for an easy walk, and distance enough to not have the night noises of people celebrating.

Super tight quarters!!! Centrally located on the rock which was nice.

Although there only one night, the rooms were lovely, clean. The area was very cool. The food/drink spread they have in the lobby for guests was unbelievable and fabulous! The staff was lovely.

I loved this! It was such an incredible treat to be able to say that I was able to cruise down the Seine. I liked having the guide point out various sites, but she didn't overdo it! This ride was a highlight for me.

Can one really put into words how spectacular this place is?! It was BEAUTIFUL! Our guide could not have done a better job of navigating the crowds while simultaneously providing a wealth of information on the history. She also made sure she took pictures with all of us (7).

SinSe' was a terrific guide. It was an unexpected treat to see exactly where so many famous artists lived and painted. The stories those cobbled streets and hills own...amazing!

The truth is, we could have walked from the train station to our hotel as it was that close, and we saw others who had done it. We didn't know so, no regrets.

These were two very beautiful castles to take in and learn about. I really enjoyed this! The only drawback to the day was the winery where they were not prepared for our visit. The staff pivoted well and they set up a nice tasting and charcuterie boards.

This tour was chock full of information I did not know and wanted to know! It was amazing to be on the actual beaches where so much history occurred! It was moving, but the American cemetery and being present while the flag was being lowered and 'Taps' being played had me teary-eyed. THANK YOU France for honoring our fallen soldiers! I am SINCERELY filled with GRATITUDE!

Our driver was on time and pleasant.
