School, College and University trips to France

The climate in France varies in different regions, but there is never a bad time to visit France as there is always something to do.

France is one of the most popular countries for group tours, including historical tours, cultural tours and art tours. France can cater to everybody’s tastes and there are so many attractions to be visited, such as:

Notre-dame de Paris is a gothic cathedral and is one of the most visited places in France. Construction of the cathedral started in 1163 and was completed almost 200 years later in about 1345. It is still used as a Roman Catholic cathedral and is thought to be one of the finest examples of French Gothic architecture.

The Eiffel Tower is the most recognisable landmark in Paris. It is known worldwide as the symbol of France and is a major tourist destination in France as well as the rest of the world. It was built between 1887 and 1889, it stands 320 metres tall including the 20 metre high antenna and is seen as one of the most amazing pieces of architectural art in the world. A light show is now a nightly event since flashing lights and searchlights were added to the tower in 2000 and this is a major attraction on its own. The Eiffel tower is so much of an icon that several reproductions and imitations have been made all over the world, including in Tokyo, Blackpool, Nevada, Vancouver, Las Vegas and Chin among others.
