France has shaped Western culture for centuries, and there is no better way to feel that legacy than through a guided cultural tour. In Paris, the country's cultural heart, you can trace the story of art from the Louvre's masterpieces to the Impressionists of the Musée d'Orsay, wander the artist studios of Montmartre, and understand how the city became a magnet for writers, painters and thinkers.
Beyond the capital, France rewards the curious traveller with an extraordinary range of cultural experiences, whether that means the Gothic cathedrals of the north, the Roman heritage of Provence, or the wine and gastronomy traditions of Burgundy and Bordeaux. A cultural tour connects the dots between food, art, architecture and history so you leave with a genuine sense of place.
Over France
Paris is the natural starting point for cultural travel in France, home to more than 130 museums, historic quarters such as Le Marais and the Latin Quarter, and landmark institutions like the Louvre, the Centre Pompidou and the Palais Garnier opera house. Its cafés, bookshops and covered passages are cultural experiences in their own right.
France as a whole layers Celtic, Roman, medieval and modern influences into every region, giving each city a distinct character. From Lyon's gastronomy to the film festival glamour of Cannes, cultural tours help you read these differences and appreciate the traditions that still shape daily French life.

De beste tijd voor een bezoek
Late spring (April-June) and early autumn (September-October) are ideal nationwide, with pleasant weather, gardens and vineyards in fine form, and lighter crowds. Summer (July-August) is warm and lively but busy, and many Parisians decamp on holiday.
Provence's lavender peaks in late June to mid-July, and the wine harvest colours Bordeaux and Burgundy in September. The Alps shine for skiing December to March. Highlights include Bastille Day on 14 July, the Cannes Film Festival in May and the Nice Carnival in February.
Vervoer
France's high-speed TGV rail network is superb, connecting Paris with Lyon, Bordeaux, Marseille and beyond in just a few hours, making the train the best way to hop between cities. Within Paris, the metro, RER and buses cover everything cheaply, and the city is very walkable.
Regional TER trains and buses reach smaller towns, though a rental car is invaluable for the Loire chateaux, Provence villages and Burgundy vineyards. On the Riviera, coastal trains link the resort towns conveniently. Book TGV tickets in advance for the best fares.
