Looking for a vacation idea in France this summer? Here are our top 5 destinations to inspire you and make you dream!

1. Corsica

Its reputation precedes it, and rightly so. The Isle of Beauty offers breathtaking landscapes, sea and mountains. Accompanied by an astonishing wealth of culture and gastronomy. In fact, it’s one of the top 5 destinations every year. As well as enjoying its fine sandy beaches, there are many hiking trails to discover, such as the GR20. The picturesque villages and their local specialities, such as brocciu and Corsican charcuterie, will delight your taste buds more than ever!

2. Brittany

For a number of years now, Brittany has been one of France’s favorite destinations, and it’s holding its own! It’s often synonymous with a total change of scenery, with its wild coastlines, lighthouses, menhirs and crêpes. Many of the islands in the Gulf of Morbihan, such as Belle Ile en Mer, can be reached from the Breton coast.
Discover famous cities such as Dinan or Saint-Malo, or try your hand at water sports such as surfing or kitesurfing. For dreamers, Brittany is also a land of magic, with its Brocéliande forest and the many activities and myths surrounding Merlin and the Knights of the Round Table.

3. La Provence

It’s a bit of a classic and a regular among the top destinations. The region of sun and cicadas will seduce you with its charm and gentle way of life. You’ll be able to discover atypical landscapes like the lavender fields, and visit historic sites like the Pont du Gard or the Palais des Papes. It’s also the perfect place to enjoy Mediterranean dishes such as tapenade or bouillabaisse. Last but not least, take advantage of the unspoilt nature and limited space in the calanques of Marseille or Cassis.

4. Alsace

This eastern region has nothing to envy the seaside.

If you’re looking for atypical architecture, then Strasbourg and Colmar are just what you’re looking for. The wine route, with its tastings of Alsatian vintages, combined with sauerkraut and kougelhopf, is also a great way to make the most of your vacation.

5 The Dordogne

The Périgord region is just as famous as our other four destinations. It’s a great place to come to recharge your batteries. For lovers of historical relics, you can visit the prehistoric caves of Lascaux or Font-de-Gaume and admire medieval castles such as Beynac and Castelnaud. Because food is also part of your vacation, why not sample local produce such as black truffles? You can also enjoy a wide range of outdoor activities, such as canoeing or accrobranche (tree climbing)!

So what are you waiting for to book your stay in France this summer? You won’t regret it!
