"Fabulous tour, the guide Leonora was excellent, so knowledgeable about the region in general and right down to the intricate details of the towns, war monuments and chateaux we visited. Accommodation was comfortable. Our driver Priscilla was so professional, and talented at getting a full size coach through the winding narrow laneways of many old villages.

"In general the tour was well organized. Some stops can be omitted in order to visit the city we are sleeping in. We had an English speaking guide together with a Spanish guide which made things easier. The emergency line of Europamundo was of great help. They were caring and responded quickly for a problem that I had in my hotel reservation. I was very satisfied and every year I travel with them.

Discover Northern France tours for every budget
Our budget Northern France tours run 4 to 8 days and hit all the must-sees while keeping costs smart. You'll get skip-the-line Louvre access with audio guides that let you move at your own rhythm - our travelers really like this flexibility. The tours mix up Paris bus tours, Seine River cruises and Eiffel Tower visits, plus we build in free time around spots like the Latin Quarter and Champs-Élysées. Many tours head beyond Paris to explore Normandy's D-Day sites, Mont Saint-Michel and Loire Valley castles, with comfortable coach rides connecting everything.
The Seine and Loire river cruises offer a refined way to see Northern France. We arrange stays in boutique historic properties and set up special experiences like private tastings in centuries-old wine cellars. Our guests particularly enjoy exclusive access to Saint-Nazaire's shipyards and evening cruises on the Erdre River when the light is perfect. The itineraries include guided visits to see Angers' Apocalypse Tapestry and private tours through châteaux like Azay-le-Rideau and Villandry. The intimate dinners in historic venues are a highlight, as is exploring Honfleur's artist quarter after the crowds thin out.

Demographics
Northern France works brilliantly for solo travelers, especially if you're into cycling. The Loire Valley routes let you ride 20-60km daily on flat terrain, with regular stops at châteaux, vineyards and local towns. Our cyclists love the dedicated paths along the Loire River and meeting new friends during wine tastings in Vouvray. If you prefer walking, the routes through Burgundy and Alsace mix guided city walks with plenty of time to wander medieval towns like Noyers-sur-Serein and also Colmar at your own place.
Couples find their sweet spot in Northern France with our small-group tours that blend Paris with countryside exploration. The 3-4 day packages include evening Seine cruises and quick access to major sites, so you can focus on each other rather than logistics. Many pairs love combining Normandy's coastal gems like Honfleur and Deauville with visits to Mont Saint-Michel and Loire Valley châteaux. Our travelers often mention how much they value having both guided activities and private time, especially in Saint-Malo's walled city and Amboise's riverside spots.
Young adults click with our active cycling tours and cultural deep-dives in Northern France. The Loire Valley bike routes cover 20-60km daily along riverside paths linking châteaux, vineyards and medieval villages. There's plenty of social time built in - wine tastings in Vouvray, river cruises in Saumur and group dinners in historic centers. The World War history tours pull in younger travelers too, mixing powerful D-Day site visits with time in beautiful spots like Bayeux and also Rouen.
Our senior travelers love how we keep things moving at just the right pace while diving deep into local culture. The 8-day Paris Explorer is a consistent favorite, with central hotels and well-timed activities. The cooking classes with local chefs, perfume-making workshops and walks through artsy neighborhoods like Montmartre really hit the spot. We use comfortable transport for trips to Versailles and Giverny, giving everyone time to take in the gardens and museums without rushing. Our guides are great at adjusting walking speeds and making sure everyone can hear and join in properly.
For families exploring Northern France, our 7-10 day tours connect Paris with Normandy in ways kids really get into. Starting in Paris, children love the walking tours around Île de la Cité and there's plenty of time to check out the Eiffel Tower from every angle. The D-Day sites are a big hit - kids can try on actual field jackets and get their hands on real WWII gear. We mix in active fun like canoeing to Château de Chenonceau, and at Leonardo da Vinci's workshop young inventors build their own machines. Parents tell us they appreciate how we balance group activities with free time and keep a comfortable pace with regular snack and rest stops.
