France tour companies

[debbrilacy]

For our Italy tours we are looking at Italy Tours EU.  Any similar companies recommended for France that would be more affordable than the cruiseline offerings?

Hi debbrilacy,

 

You may get more replies if you specify where you'll be porting, will it be Le Havre or Marseille or Monte Carlo or?? Where are you interested in visiting? 

 

It might be helpful to use the search function on this board using words related to your interests and several posts will appear. Likewise with places you may be interested in visiting: Paris, Rouen, Honfleur, D-Day Beaches, Aix, Nice, Èze...

 

 And yes, these excursions are generally less expensive than the cruise line excursions. Along the Côte d'Azur (for example), it's quite easy to DIY by train or, renting a car if you preferred, but the train would be most affordable. For other places in France, and those with particular history like D-Day, most everyone seems to go with Overlord Tours, if you'll be at Le Havre.

 

The community will chime in with answers if you share a few more details :)

Talk to that company. We used them last May for both Italy and Marseille. They have a sister company in Spain as well. Fabulous, reasonably priced, great value and very responsive.
