Former French President Charles DeGaulle once said "the French will only be united under the threat of danger.
Nobody can simply bring together a country that has 265 kinds of cheeses." It’s true the French are independent
thinkers and doubly true that there are hundreds of types of cheese. And there’s a story behind every type of
cheese, where it’s made and how it impacts on the area where it is from. France is less a country than a sum of
several distinct regions, each with its own history, culture, gastronomy and soul. That’s what makes France so
perfect for a Sandquist Europe journey.
Whether your passion is fine wine or medieval history, Gothic architecture
or alpine hiking, the Tour de France or the Tour d’Argent, there’s an area or an aspect of France that will speak
to you. We live here and love the history and tradition that exudes from every nook and cranny. From Alsace to the
Yvelines, and every region in between, once you experience the vast charm of this beautiful, unique, nation, you’re
bound to be marked for life.
A good traveler is one who does not know where he is going to, and a perfect traveler does not know where he came from. - Lin Yutang
