Last but not least, visit Lyon (the capital city in France’s Auvergne-Rhone-Alpes region, sits at the junction of the Rhone and Saone rivers). This is a flexible vacation package.

Alsace Lorraine - Alsace Wine Region
The Alsace Wine Region lies on the verge of France bordering Germany boasting an amazingly autochthonous culture. Alsace produces quite a lot of Pinot Blanc, Pinot Gris, Gewurztraminer and Crémant d’Alsace: a sparkling wine that is mushrooming in popularity. The best vineyards have long been associated with the Haut-Rhin where you will find many of the prestigious Alsace Grand Cru vineyards. Discover the impressive fortifications and magnificent medieval castles of Alsace, silent witnesses which made it a strategic place in times of war and experience the very unique Alsatian culture, its exquisite cuisine and of course one of the best wines of the world.
