Summary

France: Get a taste of some of the world's most interesting destinations with award-winning travel and food journalist Burt Wolf. By cruise, train, balloon, or on foot, Travels & Traditions explores the history, architecture, culture, customs, foods and festivals of each location. Get the inside scoop on must-see historical sites, shopping, dining, and favorite local spots unknown to tourists... until now.

Cruising Provence : A haven for artists and a playground for the rich and famous, Provence exerts a special fascination for visitors. You'll walk across one of Europe's earliest suspension bridges that links the twin cities of Tournon and Tain, marvel at the ancient Roman aqueduct in Pont du Gard, gaze upon Arles' breathtaking landscapes that inspired some of Van Gogh's most famous works, and stroll the Promenade des Anglais in Nice.

Cruising France : A private performance by the internationally renowned Gipsy Kings is just one of the lasting memories you'll treasure from this Paris to Lyon cruise. Burt is your guide to some of Paris' signature sties, including Notre Dame Cathedral. Moulin Rouge, Musee d'Orsay (a former railroad station), and the Eiffel Tower. From the artist community of Monmartre to Lyon's silk industry, this program paints an indelible portrait of France.

Cruising Southwestern France: There's not time "Toulouse" as Burt guides you along this lively tour of Southwestern France. You'll visit the fortified hill town of Carcassonne, wander the gorgeous pathways along the Canal du Midi, explore the treasures of the Museum de Toulouse, and taste the secret soul of France that flavors this region's traditional dishes. To visit Southwestern France, Burt observes, is to visit one of the unspoiled parts of Europe.
