Custom-Designed Tour in France
Adam B., French teacher
We helped Adam B., a French teacher from Pennsylvania, put his own spin on our Discover France tour. He designed the trip to not only focus on Paris’ city center, but also to include locations such as Aigues-Mortes and the calanques, which his students have studied for years.
