Eastern France – 7-21 October 2026
Picturesque vineyards and sparkling Champagne tastings in Reims and Epernay set the tone for a cultural deep dive into Metz’s Gothic grandeur and Strasbourg’s riverside charm. Meander through the storybook villages of Alsace, discover fortified citadels, and admire the glacial lakes and forested slopes of the Vosges Mountains. Savor Burgundy’s finest wines and cheeses in Dijon, Beaune, and Macon, then indulge in Lyon’s culinary mastery with a hands-on cooking class and a stroll through its Renaissance old town. Delve into the rich history of medieval Perouges and absorb the majesty of the Benedictine’s Cluny Abbey.
