St. Jean De Luz has been an important fishing port since the Middle Ages and is located on the Cote des Basques (Basque Coast), which stretches from San Sebastian in Spain to Bayonne, the chief town of the French Basque country.
Discover the towering citadel of Mont-St.Michel, rising from the tidal flats like a castle in a dream, at St. Malo. Ascend its winding streets to enter the abbey and see the halls and chambers where the monks lived out their lives, bounded by the rising tides that cut them off from France twice a day.
St. Peter Port is a quaint harbour whose narrow, cobbled streets and granite houses rise in tiers on the hillside. In town, visit St. Peter's Church and the 13th-century Castle Cornet. Or opt for an excursion to the countryside's pastoral vistas.
Contrast Rouen's gothic cathedral Notre Dame with its famous namesake in Paris. Are extended call in this medieval city offers an opportunity to experience the "City of Light from the Eiffel Tower to the Champs Elysee Perhaps you'll also venture out to Givenry where Monets home and gardens await.
Antwerp is one of Europe's oldest and most distinguished cultural. Drink a "diamond cocktail" in a cutter's workshop; perhaps the stone in your drink will be real. Visit painter Paul Rubens' house, and then enjoy a walking tour of the charming city centre.
Much of Amsterdam's beauty can be easily surveyed by canal boat. The tall gabled houses and floating houseboats reflect the Dutch love of all that's neat and proper. Tour the Rijksmuseum's galleries to see the works of the Dutch Masters.
