I did a 4-week combination program at Coeur de France and I was very impressed with the teaching methodology, diversity of learning opportunities (classroom and social), and warmth and friendliness of the professors and other staff. I am a working adult taking a brief career sabbatical--I decided to invest in my language skills and I am very happy with the improvements I made in both my grammar knowledge of French and my speaking skills. This experience allowed me to meet some incredible people with common interests, as well as learn more about the Loire valley, wine making, French culture and more! I think this is a terrific program for people of all ages and language levels. I am hoping to go back for another few weeks!

We enjoyed a private tour of a small family winery on a very hot day. Thankful that we chose to wine taste among the vines in the shade with Adélaïde who gave a delightful presentation on the geology of the area affecting the taste of the wine. It was a lovely beginning to our vacation.

France being the walhalla of Cathedral lovers, if you have to choose a few, put Bourges at the top of your list. Beautiful city, fantastic Cathedral, I have never seen such a fine stained window art and there are so many windows to see. If you have the time, book a tour with a guide that knows the stories of each window, You will not be bored. If you don't have the time, just walk around in awe.
8. Palais Jacques-Coeur
Overall Ratings
4.5 based on 852 reviews
The “Grant’Maison” of Jacques Cœur, financier to king Charles VII, was built in the mid-15th century and is one of the most beautiful examples of Gothic civic architecture in France. The relatively unadorned western facade, built on the Gallo-Roman town walls, contrasts starkly with the richly decorated eastern facade overlooking the street. The Palais Jacques Cœur is a fine example of the Flamboyant style of the late Middle Ages and its attention to the comfort of the inhabitants prefigures the great residences of the Renaissance.
