Southern France - A journey like no other
2018-01-29

The City of Love, Paris, has always been a must-go for honeymooners. While Paris has a lot to offer with sights like the Eiffel Tower and Louvre, there is so much more of France for you and your partner to discover together!

Take a trip down to Southern France for 9 days of romance, local cuisine, culture and an unforgettable adventure.

Start your trip with a two-night stay in Paris and commence your discovery of the City of Lights with a Parisian Gourmet Walk and visit local patisseries, boulangeries and chocolatiers. What better way is there to discover the city than taking an off-the-beaten-track gourmet walking tour?

One can’t say to have visited France without a trip to the Eiffel Tower. Skip the crowd with your VIP access to The Iron Lady and be treated to a breathtaking panoramic view of the city. Plus, stand out with non-touristy photos taken from the tower.

From there, travel first class to Avignon on board the TGV train. At Avignon, treat your taste buds to a new food experience with authentic French cuisines and local delights. Experience countryside lunch at a family owned olive mill while learning about the popularity of artisanal olive oils.

Another must visit in Avignon is Palais des Papes – one of the most iconic symbols of the Catholic Church’s position in the 14th century. See the pope's’ private apartments and admire the magnificent frescoes of the biggest Gothic Palace in Europe. During the April departure of Splendours of Southern France, you can even enjoy an exclusive after-hours visit to the Pope’s Palace.

Another exclusive Insight Experience includes the sipping of prestigious wine with connoisseurs at the village of Châteauneuf-du-Pape. Learn about these prestigious wines and discover the different grape varieties that are used to create the pristine blend of wine.

If these activities are not enough to satisfy your inner foodie, opt to hunt for one of the greatest culinary treasure, truffle. You will also be served samples of truffle hors d’œuvres and ice cream – a sweet ending to a perfect day.

On top of these delectable encounters, explore places like Cannes, the Grand Prix Circuit in Monaco, the Grimaldi Family’s Royal Palace and Eze, a medieval village with a hilltop botanical garden.

9D Splendours of Southern France is only available twice this year in April and September. Prices start from USD2,895 per person. Book your trip now with Insight Vacations at https://france.insightvacations.com/asia/romantic-cote-d-azur/.
