French Wine Country & Atlantic Seaside Chic
Perhaps you’re drawn to the château-lined roads of Bordeaux. Or maybe the wild bluffs of Biarritz and the emerald peaks of Basque Country. Why choose? On this family adventure, it’s all très magnifique.
Highlights
- Cycle through a sea of vineyards outside Bordeaux and along La Vélodyssée, a scenic bike path that hugs the Atlantic all the way to the Basque Coast
- Treat the family to plush retreats, from a genteel 1920s-style beach lodge to the spa resort that launched the Caudalie skincare line
- Sip and savor at renowned wineries, where private tours and tastings offer a behind-the-scenes look amid exquisite scenery
- Embrace the laid-back vibe of France’s surf-happy Atlantic Coast, a stunning landscape of forests, coves, capes and dunes
- Wander through the verdant Pyrenees and the vibrant half-timbered streets of Bayonne
