Goofing Around in France
Bonjour! I'm Cindy, formerly from San Diego, CA, but currently living in Paris. I moved from California a couple of weeks before the tour started and I am staying for at least a year to see how I like it. So far, LOVE it!
I came with a long travel wish list. At the top of the list were Switzerland and Italy, so I was able to knock those two off with this Rick Steves Best of Europe in 14 Days tour. This was my second Rick Steves tour. I did the Eastern France tour in 2023 and it was spectacular, so I was ready for another.
What I like best about the RS tours...they are very well organized, hotels are consistently charming and in the city center, the tour buses are very nice and the drivers are great, the activities and destinations are always interesting and fun and you meet so many wonderful people. It's funny how so many strangers can come together with a common interest in travel and become good friends within two weeks. If you're thinking about doing any kind of tour, I say do it if you can! A big, beautiful world awaits!
