From Bastille Day celebrations and the spectacular Amiens cathedral to wintersports in the Alps and the famous Tour de France, this guide captures all of France's highlights in a full colour introduction. The top hotels, bars and restaurants are all uncovered in the detailed listings section with the new 'Author's Pick' feature highlighting the very best options.
