Love how Les Frenchies are expanding with new content…I can’t wait to explore more of France!

This was lovely. Merci

Please, oh please, do all of these! We just can’t express to you how happy we are to hang out with you two. You make us laugh. You inspire us. You make us want to come to Paris. And ,now, we need to do some of these bucket list items. Thanks for being so awesome. So glad we found you and follow you. You are GEMS!!! With love, Jeff n Michele, Rhode Island.

Un petit tour avec l'héritage gallo romain : Arènes de Nîmes, maison carrée, jardin de la Fontaine, porte d’Auguste…. pont du Gard …Via Dominitia …théâtre et arc de triomphe d’Orange, c'est super et tout prêt quand on est en Camargue.

Nice video , thanks for sharing. France is certainly one of the countries, perhaps the country with the greatest diversity of landscape and architecture. If you're visiting Dunkirk, you might like to drop in on Lille, where I live, which is very close by, also known as the capital of Flanders, and is a beautiful city.

First in my list is Colmar. Alsace in my preferred region, everything is gorgeous. All the little towns around are like museums. Everything is so clean. From Colmar, no need to have a car. Direct trains from Paris take only 2h20 to go there. Train station is nearby the center. Thanks to buses, you can go to all the little wine villages and enjoy walks there. Colmar is a small town everything can be done just by walking. A dream.

It’s hard to to choose places for a bucket list in France as there are so many beautiful spots, and one can come upon them just by driving around. An unforgettable sight is the Gorge du Verdon and the lake below, and not too far away the incredible spectacle of the lavender fields in full bloom - both are breathtaking in their own way. Yes I love everything about Provence and The Var; the beaches, the hills, the towns and villages and the gorgeous buildings. Wish I was there!

I've been to about half the places on this list, well worth the effort. In Lyon we dined at Paul Bocuse, and he went round the tables greeting the guests.

I'm French and I've just discovered your YT channel this morning 😊 I like it v much and thank you for sharing the beauty of France ❤ I'd like to suggest the beautiful town of VICHY, in the center of France (please wait until the work in the streets is finished ;) )

My bucket list of France includes Lyon, Bordeaux, Marseille, and Toulouse. Until then I will continue to enjoy watching you all tour France. I’ve really enjoyed your channel and thankful for discovering it months ago. Happy New Year! 🎉💃🏽🇫🇷

Y’all make me wish I were rich.. I’d pay y’all to travel guide me all over France! Love your channel ❤

Awesome video.

Bonne Année 2023! I finally made it to France after globetrotting since 2014! I'm in Paris enjoying the city's numerous sights! Firstly, I must be a weak American. I'm used to driving everywhere. Secondly, I can only do 1 thing a day not 2 things. By the time you finish queuing & maneuvering through the crowded huge museums, it's time to eat. By the time you eat a great meal, it's time to take a nap. LOL I'm beat down. Thirdly, I am only halfway through Paris stay. Finally, I'm headed to Chamonix later! For the record, nope, not hiking. I did that in the Tatras in Zakopane, Poland & I wanted to fake collapse. So the Rangers would drive me back down. Oh yeah, I took y'all advice and learned some French & it worked for a bit until they spoke English. Then I got confused. 😁 LOL

It's midnight Paris time. Bonne Année 🎊🍾

I’d like to tour the Burgundy region and drive the Route des Grandes Crus, start in Chablis and go all the way down to Beaune. Those are some of my favorite wines. Cheers 🥂

I will be in Paris next week for 3 weeks. Found this video in time for valuable information for my trip. Also thinking to visit Florence and cinqueterre for a few days. Thank you

Puy de Fou, a medieval theme park is a fabulous day trip. Giverny, home to Monet's house an gardens is another must see.

no one ever talks about Lorraine my region 😢 ... homeland of Joan of Arc where there was the most terrible battle in history (Verdun) land of memory we also have beautiful mountains, forests, lakes beautiful landscapes, a gastronomy, crafts, traditions, historical monuments , with very beautiful cities like metz and nancy etc.

Antoine and Colleen, I am a huge fan, and look forward to all your content, your enthusiasm is contagious. I enjoyed both your top 10 lists. I’ve been lucky enough to visit France 11 times since 2001 and I’ve struggled with La langue Francaise for the same amount of time. Nice and Paris are my most frequent/favorite places to stay. I had the pleasure of visiting many of my bucket list items this past summer, Lyon, Avignon, Arles, Carcassonne, Mont Saint-Michel, the Loire Valley, Chateau Chenenceau, Amboise, Bayeux, the débarquement museums in Normandie among others (it was a long trip of 17 days covering 3000 Km). Also visited the charming town of St. Lô which I would see again. Since you asked, here are some of the things I’d love to see in France that you didn’t mention - The World Puppet Theater Festival September (every other year) Charleville-Mézières WWI battlefields, The Somme, Verdun, etc. Would like to tour Amiens and the other Cathedrals in that area where those towns in France engaged in an arms race to build the tallest cathedral, sometimes with tragic results. See - Nova:Building the great cathedrals - kzfaq.info/get/bejne/eppgfct4sLy5hoE.html. Gorges du Verdon river canyon located in Provence-Alpes-Côte d'Azur region. Menton and the Festival du Citron Eze Those are just a few. The unabridged list is very, very long. Happy New Year

You will love Corsica. We had our honeymoon there two decades ago and the variation of culture and experiences between the different areas of the Island are amazing.

J'ajouterai : La Rochelle et l'île de Ré, Dijon les vignobles de Bourgogne,les Hospices de Beaune, l'abbaye de Cluny . La vallée de la Dordogne , Sarlat , Suze la Rousse , et les grottes préhistoriques.

France is our favourite country in Europe and we have spent four visits there all of a month or more - and have visited 17 of the 20 named destinations - AMAZING - we'll get to the rest in the future. Oh, and if you go to Bordeaux, you must go a little further inland and visit Saint Emilion - it's amazing..

One of my best all time memories is our hike from Kaysersberg (through Siglosheim, Kienzheim & the vineyards, visiting "Bloody Hill" etc..) to Riquewihr. All lovely places! St Michel also a favorite..so magical! We are coming back this year to do a hot air balloon ride over he Loire Valley. I love France & the French!

One place that's on my list is the beaches of Normandy. But I'm a big history buff, so I know that won't be everyone's jam. :) Love the list you presented! So many good places to go see. I have visited one spot on the list, actually. Corsica. Really pretty area, but I gotta say, the locals we encountered there were way, way ruder than anyone we'd come across in Paris or elsewhere. Maybe they just don't like tour groups or something? I was browsing in a small shop looking for some snacks for the remainder of he day. I guess the shopkeep realized I and the other 2 shoppers in the store were tourists because out of nowhere they shoo'd us out, closed up, and left. And I was literally in the middle of trying to pay for something too. Was just bizarre.

How lucky you are for still having to discover our beautiful France with « eyes of a first time »! You are most welcome. An alsatian follower😊

NOW, we are talking!!! :) This is what we are doing! Exploring France! In June we will visit Toulouse, the last white spot in France for us! We look at your videos and just love them! We recognice so much but you also provides us with a lot of tips! Thank you so much! Johnny & Ewa from Sweden

Additional places to visit: the hill towns (Rhône-Alpes area) like Rousillion and Gordas, Arles, and Giverney. Loved the Carmargue and those flamingos! I’ve been to Chamonix from the Switzerland side on an amazing train ride up Les Gorges du Trient. Thanks for all the wonderful suggestions. Bonne Annee!🎉

Giverny was a bucket list item that didn't disappoint! Seeing Monet's living lily pads was moving. Living in Paris, and now in the south (near the worthwhile Camargue!), I feel lucky to think I might make it to the end of my France bucket list!... and then onto Spain and Italy.. :)

I would add in my list : annecy, eze, the canal du midi, the gorges of the verdon, the ardèche and the tarn (no jealousy!) chateau queyras, pérouges, the roads of the Vercors, the mastrou train, the ideal palace of the postman cheval and many others. happy new year !

I also suggest you to discover Overseas France. You will love Réunion Island!

I'm in the initial stages of planning a trip for next May, starting in Lyon for 3-4 days, then staying at Lake Annecy, day tripping to Chamonix, Geneva, and Chambery, then basing in Colmar to take day trips to Basil, Strasbourg, and I guess now Riquewihr. Thanks for all the videos that you post. Some are great memories, and the other inspire me to go to new places.

You guys are so good together and the fun parts. i love it.I eventually will be moving to France.I am living in Tacoma Washigton . My parents live in the UK.3 years I go I find my biological parents.I think about 2 years before I moved there Queen Anne...

Thanks for sharing your bucket list. They look super cool! I'm planning a trip to France in April. Would any of these on your bucket list be suitable for Spring travels?

Manyore places to see in France but this is already a great list. I would add the Cordes-Sur-Ciel, Les Baux-de-Provence, Les Gorges du Verdon, Les Gorges du Tarn, Le Cirque de Gavarnie, La Cote de Granit Rose, St Malo, Concarneau, …

Oh I want to see it all!!! But especially want to experience Lourdes!!! Colleen, please do a video of your experience if you go!!!

We have done some, Riquewhirh (and surrounding villages - ah the Flammekeuch) Rocamadour, Mont SM, Auvergne (Le Puys de Velay) Lyon, Strasbourg and Bordeaux. Next trip Avignon/Arles/Nimes/Aix en Provence, plus Annecy. Not keen on some of the others, maybe Chamonix from Annecy. But we want to get back to St Malo, Gouffre du Padirac (amazing!). The rest of the Plus Beaux Villages du France, we have only done around 12 (ish), our favourite being St Cirq la Popie in the Lot region. (got interviewed for France 3 TV that day as Macron was first elected!) So still on our list is....FRANCE🤣🤣 Way too much to do, and so little time (and money) to do it all. Just keep working through it I suppose.

There is a restaurant in Rouen where Julia Child decided to become a chef. It is memorable and the oldest auberge in all of France.

I skied the valle Blanche at Mont Blanc 20 years ago! Amazing! I want to go back

Glad you said is your bucket list because after working in Paris and living in Versailles for 10 years we moved to the Morbihan breton in Brittany/Bretagne/Breizh and is the 3rd most visited region in France after IDF (Paris etc) and PACA (French riviera) in the most visited country in the world France per UN-WTO. Enjoy France is a mouvable feast !!

OMG. How cute are the two of you!? Bonne Annee! Lots of great ideas here; but Carcassone has to be the one that most resonates. I learned about it in either high school or college French class, and we had to recite the legend "ensemble." So here, for your reading pleasure I've cut/paste it in the event you don't know it. It so perfectly expressed how I felt on ending my 15-day sojourn in France back in November: Je me fais vieux, j'ai 60 ans J'ai travaillé toute ma vie Sans avoir, durant tout ce temps Pu satisfaire mon envie Je vois bien qu'il n'est ici-bas De bonheur complet pour personne Mon vœu ne s'accomplira pas Je n'ai jamais vu Carcassonne On dit qu'on y voit tous les jours Ni plus ni moins que les dimanches Des gens s'en aller sur les cours En habits neufs, en robes blanches On dit qu'on y voit des châteaux Grands comme ceux de Babylone Un évêque et deux généraux Je ne connais pas Carcassonne Le vicaire a cent fois raison C'est des ambitieux que nous sommes Il disait dans son oraison Que l'ambition perd les hommes Si je pouvais trouver pourtant Deux jours sur la fin de l'automne Mon Dieu que je mourrais content Après avoir vu Carcassonne Mon Dieu, mon Dieu, pardonnez-moi Si ma prière vous offense On voit toujours plus haut que soi En vieillesse comme en enfance Ma femme, avec mon fils Aignan A voyagé jusqu'à Narbonne Mon filleul a vu Perpignan Et je n'ai pas vu Carcassonne Ainsi parlait, près de Limoux Un paysan courbé par l'âge Je luis dis "ami, levez-vous" Nous allons faire le voyage Nous partîmes le lendemain Mais que le bon Dieu lui pardonne Il mourut à moitié chemin Il n'a jamais vu Carcassonne

May 2023 bring you health, love and cash$$$ so you get to visit all your bucket list destinations!!!

We visited Bordeaux last year - our first trip to France as a family. What a fantastic, friendly, beautiful city - I cannot wait to go again! The Cite du vin museum was incredible too - well worth a visit.

By the way, there are plenty of possibilities to go on a river cruise all over France. And for the "gourmets", you can have the extra choice of booking a cruise with the emphasis on fine French dining. Heaven and paradise on a ship.

You covered many of my places to visit. My goal this year is to explore as much of France as possible to see where I want to live.

One of our favorite cities in France is Metz. We lived there as children and have visited since. Our friend lives in a house built in the 1600's. We love St. Etiennes Cathedral in France as well as the German door, the old train station. Of course, things have changed since the 1950's, but we still love it!

When you're near St. Jean de Luz, you need to hike up La Rhune in Sar. It's amazing!

Love your videos!!! I i would like to see more of France

I am with Colleen about the hot air balloon ride! In September I will be in Provence near the village of Rousillon and plan on going up above the beautiful countryside there. Thanks for all of the other ideas. Life is definitely worth living in France!!

I knew there was more to France than visiting Paris but WOW! Your bucket list places are truly picturesque and amazing. It's making me rethink my next trip to France.

Our first visit to Carcassone .....we were staying about a 5 hour drive away and my husband insisted we go, with our then young sons. I love history, but not this much.....At the crack of dawn we set off, me sulking and not talking to him. Why did I want to see a load of old Castle boulders?? Then, eventually, there is was in the distance. This stunning, amazing Fortress!!!. I couldnt wait to get there. Yes, it's busy and touristy. BUT, LOOK BEYOND THAT TO THE AMAZING BUILDING, I RAN MY HANDS ALONG THE FORTRESS, WALKED THE HUGE CATHEDRAL AND SENSED THE HISTORY ALL AROUND. I Love it, many visits later , and will always return as long as my health allows.

I wish you a very, very HAPPY NEW YEAR! And see you in 2023. I love France and our family spend a lot of wonderful holidays in this amazing country but we have our bucket list too ( traveling in France, of course). I love your style.

The Strausborg Christmas Markt was the best out of all the ones we hit in 4 years! Wonderful! I want to go to Pau, France! That is where my dad was born and lived the first 5 years of his life.

WHAT A BUCKET LIST ! IM HOPING TO VISIT SOON !! IF I CN DO AT 2 OF UR LIST I WOULD BE ECSTATIC!!! THANKS MUCH

Thanks for sharing this very nice list ! The hot air balloon ride is also on my bucket list; i definitely want to see the castles on the Loire river as well as the gardens of Villandry. I hope you will upload a video once you made that ride with all the useful info !

What a beautiful and varied bucket list! I can't wait for you both to take us along as you explore France.

Hi there, they guys for showing the best of France. My family from Australia will visit me in Paris next year. This will be their third visit in France. I will share your videos with them. Thank you!❤

[ loved this mine is Versailles Place especially Marie little garden then the Dior shop ie museum and yes Mount Saint Michel and Lourdes and very much Christmas Markets love Christmas Hugs to Both xoxo

Thanks for that. Some great ideas when I go to France in May.

Avignon is beautiful, I’ve no doubt you’ll love it. While you are in the area, Fontaine-de-Vaucluse is well worth a visit ❤

Cool, I want to visit Guedelon as well.

Hi guys, great video. Next year I am going to Brittany. Looking forward to it. I have been to Chartres cathedral and it’s gorgeous. It has some of oldest stained glass in France. The labyrinth was pretty cool. Lots of nice shops around too. You get off the train and your right there. I loved it. I do stained glass myself so I can appreciate the work involved and the amount of people who died of lead poisoning. I wanted to go to Mont St Michael but the timing is wrong. Thanks for some ideas of what to do. Lyon is on my list too. As always have a good one eh!😁🇨🇦

This is probably the best video I have seen on youtube. So professional, so engaging and it brings back so many memories of visiting France over the last 4 decades. Your enthusiasm, passion and love for France is such a pleasure ro watch. I may miss some must see visits in Bourgogne, Champagne or other regions, but hey: in France it is easy to put together a top 1000 must visit list. Next time! Thanks for this, loved it!

Very good recommendations, even for French people. ^^

I'm sorry I did not stop in Biarritz, on my way to San Sebastian, Spain. My destination was Morocco. I love your channel!

So beautiful!!!!! Omg these bucket- list villages are picturesque gorgeous ♥️

I can not wait. France is my country to get immersed in.

Your bucket list is very very similar to mine! Paris, Rome, Barcelona and London have been on my bucket list since I was a young child. And they are still there! When I got my first iPad and downloaded Google Earth, the first thing I wanted to see (after identifying my house and my grown children’s house, I started roaming around France. I “flew” over a city with all of these hollow square buildings. I had to stop and zoom in closer to discover that the hollow squares were buildings with four wings, making a closed Cube and a courtyard in the center. This wasn’t EVERY building but it was close (to every building). With more zooming in and then zooming back out, I discovered that it was Lyon which bumped every every city on my list down a notch. I truly want to visit Lyon and stay in one or more of those buildings and wander through the courtyard. I know that some of those buildings are (or were when I discovered the city and Google Earth) and THAT is what put Lyon on the “map” for me. Doing some homework, I was able to find even more reasons to want to visit Lyon and it remains at the top of my list. Paris and the other cities I will review here are all at the top of my list and Rome is several notches lower on my list, pushing London and Barcelona even lower still. It is my intent to visit all of the areas in France while I am there. I have given thought into buying a barge or a narrowboat and spend an extended amount of time in France (pending approval from the French Authorities, of course). Hearing that Lyon is a city of great food does NOT discourage me from wanting to visit! I can’t wait! I would also like to visit Lourdes, as well as LaFollette. For the same reason you want to visit. I would also like to visit Medjugorge, while she is still appearing there. After hearing that you wish to visit Avignon and being familiar with the period of time that the pope and the Vatican were forced to leave and I almost went down the wrong road. Whew! I am a good catholic girl who laughs about some things. Not everyone will be amused by things that make me laugh. I have wondered for quite some time where Mardi Gras in New Orleans came from! I understood that it was from the French who were there for quite some time but I did not ever hear that Paris had a big Todo celebrating Fat Tuesday. For a very long time, I thought France was a very small country and that it was so small that there were not any regional differences. I was a kid, what can I say? I discovered a wonderful town coming down from the Pyrenees that was in the direction of but not really a part of the French Riviera called Ceres. I truly wanted to spend my retirement there but husband had begun to have a fear of traveling too far away from home. I found a flat ( is that the term that the French use?) on the 1st Floor (American 2nd Floor) just around the corner from the biweekly market. 2 doors down, just right around the corner in the city square. I loved the house, it was quite old but looked well taken care of and it was in the exact type of area in a town that I have always thought that I would retire to. Husband was afraid (he was quite ill) and I did not pursue it. We had several vehicles and he could no longer drive. I could have sold one and payed cash for a lovely 2BR Apartment on the city square in a lively French town. Anyway, I have fallen in love with the town but it seems to have been ‘discovered’ and things are significantly more expensive now. Husband passed away several months ago and I regret not buying that apartment, although it was several years ago and I would not have traveled that far and been gone for the amount of time it would have taken when he was so ill. I REALLY tried to convince him to travel with me to Lourdes, for obvious reasons, and if I had to do it again I would have pushed harder to convince him that he would be doing it for me so that he would go. But, he would have scoffed at the idea and I don’t think that is the right frame of mind when you go somewhere to ask for a cure. With that in mind, Medjugorge might have been the best place for any possibility of him facing a miracle. But maybe it was something he needed to learn and even though we were married just shy of 30 years, any lessons that may or may not have been placed before him is not mine to guess, but none of this is relative to the question you asked. It just worked out the way it did and if I had to do it again, I would have made the same choices so I don’t know why I am whining or ‘whinging’ about it. Except it would have been NICE if the opportunity came up NOW. I have drifted quite a ways off topic! Ceret is absolutely on my bucket list. Mont San Michel has been a place that I have wanted to go since I knew of its existence. Regardless of whether or not it has become popular. I would like to spend several weeks there and stay on the island after the tourists moved on to their next adventure but I am not sure that I would serve a useful purpose. I would like to see the Pyrenees Mountains but not to ski or play in the snow. I LOVE the snow and being buried in when you have everything you need but I grew up deep in the San Juan Range of the Rocky Mountains in New Mexico and Colorado and I lived at 9800ft and would climb a hidden mountain and camp at 14,000ft and I don’t want to be so arrogant as to suggest that the Rocky Mountains are better than the Alps because that would be ridiculous. But my career was in Health Care and I was in nursing in the Critical Care Unit of the trauma center that covered all of the 4 corners until the patient was closer to Denver, Albuquerque, Salt Lake City or Phoenix and I had patients who would ski down a black run and come upon a tree where they meant to go, and the moment’s hesitation in which direction he would go to avoid the tree was enough of a delay that he would end up straddling the tree. While that looks funny on a cartoon on the Sunday Comics, there is nothing funny about it when it happens in the real world. So it took every ounce of calm to allow my daughter to ski, no amount of money would have been enough to sand down a couple of boards and wax them until they are as slick and smooth as they can be and then strapping them onto my feet and finding the steepest downhill decline that I could find and slide down the mountain as fast as I could go. Nope. I got into nursing BEFORE the opportunity came up that would require that kind of risky behavior. Nope, not gonna happen, but that doesn’t mean that I would not enjoy the mountain communities and the buildings and the people and the animals and….. also, after watching your video of Normandy, a visit to that region has landed firmly on my list. And because I have not had slept in ~40+ hours, this comment has turned into a ridiculously long novella about everything and nothing! I apologize! But I don’t want to start over. I hope 2023 brings you and those you love a joyeux and successful New Year!

I think I’ve been to half of the places recommended, but would like to add the town of Etretat. The rock formations are absolutely stunning. Please google if you’ve never heard of this place. Also, if you are a fan of Maurice Leblanc, this is a must.

5:36 Oooof even not being Coriscan that map hurts I also recommend Pointe-à-Pitre / Fort-de-France / Cayenne in America and Brest / St Malo / Quimper in Brittany Happy to see Guédelon castle in you bucket !

Riquewihr was indeed lovely. However, if you do go, make sure you also visit Kaysersberg, Equisheim and Colmar which are all very close.

I've been to Lourdes twice Coleen. It's amazing if slightly comercial. If you go for Easter you might see loads of disabled kids from the U.K. Wearing differentt coloured hats on.

I’m planning a trip to France for this summer. Bordeaux, Strasbourg/Colmar, Normandy, Mont St. Michele, and a few days in Paris. This video and your channel in general has been invaluable for planning. Now I just have to wait 6 months before I actually get to go!

Colleen and Antoine, thank you for your suggestions. I enjoy your videos so much! I definitely recommend Carcassone, Avignon and Nice. Now I have some new ideas for planning my next vacation in France! Bonne Annee!

Looking forward to your coverage, did lyon, lourdes, strasborg n ancey. Chamonix had no snow this year.j missed the mont michel.

This was fantastic! Thanks for the suggestions. I’ve been to Riquewirh and it was too touristy, we much preferred Eguisheim, but that whole Alsatian wine route was fabulous! Btw Coleen’s makeup looks lovely in this video.

Ma'am/Sir as i have seen and observe to both of you i can say that you love each other so much.The way you treat each other as husband and wife.And aside from that it seemed that you two been so jolly, lively.And that what makes me so delighted in a sense that me too enjoyed as you did.Thanks,Ma'am/Sir.More videos to come.

I hope your guys get to go to all your bucket list places and filmed them. And then shared them with all of us

Thank you for these ideas!! Vive la France!!!! 🇫🇷 🇫🇷 🇫🇷

Wow - thank you, you've just made planning my next few trips easier to plan!! I'd add the Roman Theatre in Orange - truly an amazing thing. I'd also include Saint-Remy because I love the fact that you can see where Van Gogh painted some of his most known works from the period he was there. And Valbonne is a lovely walled town with a 13th century abbey. My list would be much longer than 10!!! :)

Very fun comparing bucket lists. Enjoy your 2023 projects!

Fantastic list, loved it all. Thank you for the inspiration. For me, I'd like more exploration of the French Alps and Provence, and, well all of it, can't get enough of France! Happy New year everyone!

without forgetting Nimes and Ales Roman cities with perfectly preserved temples and theaters and coliseums

This video makes me want to fly to France and check out some towns with you. What a Tour Guide you would be. Fantastic!!!

Thank you for this list! I can’t wait to go back and explore more of France and am so happy I get to live of bit of my dreams through your videos. I would add Gordes to your bucket list. It was beautiful!

This is an awesome list

I went to Mont St. Michel in October, it was amazing!! Happy New Year!! 🎊🪅🎉

Nice is absolutely amazing! Èze, next to Nice, is a really really lovely little city. Happy new year!

Wow! Now that's a bucket list to travel. can't wait to visit some of these places. 🥰Thanks for sharing

Giverny. About an hour north of Paris, it's the home of Claude Monet. His house and gardens, and water gardens, are restored to their original condition and in October (when we went) it was absolutely beautiful. You could drink the air it was so clean. It was a laid-back village, almost no cars, a restaurant nearby, and the water, gardens and his home were just as they were back in the day. That beautiful afternoon sun was marvelous. We took a tour van there from Paris and it was totally wonderful.

Sooo nice to watch your videos

Mon souhait le plus cher serait de pouvoir passer plusieurs mois en France pour visiter, à tout le moins, quelques endroits que vous avez mentionnés. Bonne et Heureuse Année.

When you go to Chartres, be sure to go when you can experience Chartres en Lumières. I was there in summer of 2016 and it was one of the most magical nights of my life.

Wow, loved all of your recomendations, I think some of them, if not all, going to add to my bucket list!!

Great stuff! Since Biarritz is on your list perhaps you could travel to San Sebastian for a meal and tell us the best ways to do that. Thank you!

I have ben to Lyon, Annecy and all that region decades ago, fond memories, all the best for a great 2023.....

Sarlat la Caneda in the Dordogne. It is wow. And can't beat the Vaucluse, give it a week, base in Vaison la Romaine. . And just was through Briancon a short run from Torino and that was a surprise. Oh - adding Barcelonette, in the Grandes Alpes. Calm hideaway and a bit of flatter land for a break from hairpin roads, that. My usual home base is Cap St Jean Ferrat.

France is such an amazing country. Definitely go to Nice - it’s a great city. Mont St Michel is amazing, I went there with a school trip many years ago. So many other places on your list I would love to visit too. Happy New Year to you both. All the very best !

The best travel guide. I have visited Paris and Lyon way back. Going to France in October again. Will definitely try out the cafes in Paris and visit Nice. You are a cute couple❤❤.

I love your videos. You mentioned loving France in winter. Could you do a video of places to visit in France in winter? I’m planning a trip in February and can’t find many videos about visiting in winter. Based on the lack of videos I’m concerned about going in February.

Mardi gras in Dunkerque is a fantastic goofy idea that nobody talks about. Great list. So much to see even for french natives.
