Planning a family (2 adults + 2 teenage kids) in France and northern Italy. What sites, tours, activities do experienced travellers recommend? Of particular interest are good tours/sites about WWII in the Normandy region, winery tours in Bordeaux and hotels/sites in the lake region of Italy.

  1. The Nice - Monaco - San Remo stretch is very nice.  If the French Riviera is too pricey, get a room in San Remo (Italy) and take a day trip to Monaco, about a 20 minute drive.

    Incidentally, I don't have to actually tell you that Paris is amazing, do I?


  2. I would take a day in Monaco.  Avignon.  Carcassonne has the COOLEST city walls!  (it's near the southern Spanish border.)  Omaha beach is widely respected as a great WWII monument.  I would also try to get to Cinque Terre in Northwestern Italy.

    I don't know anything about the lake region...I would maybe throw in Rome, Florence, Pisa, Venice, Verona, Sicily, Naples/Pompeii.  Well, I WILL do those someday...but I would choose something from there.

    Have a great trip!
