WELCOME TO THE LOIRE VALLEY & BURGUNDY
World-renowned chteaux and fine wines may be the two most obvious reasons to visit the Loire Valley and Burgundy, but theyre only the tip of the iceberg. This region is home to one of the largest concentrations of cave dwellings and some of Europes finest medieval architecture. When youve had your fill of chteau gawking and vineyard hopping, make some time for roads less travelled: go underground to discover the Loires ancient troglodyte culture; or spend a week exploring Burgundys medieval churches, abbeys and walled towns.

PARIS

If ever a city needed no introduction, its Paris a trend setter, fashion former and style icon for centuries, and still very much at the cutting edge. Whether youre here to tick off the landmarks or seek out the secret corners, Paris fulfils all your expectations, and still leaves you wanting more.
Driving in Paris is a nightmare. Happily, theres no need for a car. The metro is fast, frequent and efficient; tickets cost 1.70 (day passes 6.70) and are valid on the citys buses. Bikes can be hired from 1800 Vlib (www.velib.paris.fr) stations; insert a credit card, authorise a 150 deposit and pedal away. Day passes cost 1; first 30 minutes free, subsequent 30 minutes from 2.
Meters dont take coins; use a chip-enabled credit card. Municipal car parks cost 2 to 3.50 an hour, or 20 to 25 per 24 hours.
Le Marais is one of the best areas for eating out, with its small restaurants and trendy bistros. Dont miss Paris street markets: the March Bastille, rue Montorgueil and rue Mouffetard are full of atmosphere.
Base yourself in Montmartre for its Parisian charm, if you dont mind crowds. Le Marais and Bastille provide style on a budget, while St-Germain is good for a splurge.

Oscar Wilde, Edith Piaf, Marcel Proust and Jim Morrison are just a few of the famous names buried in this wildly overgrown cemetery (www.perelachaise.com).
Join the locals for a walk or bike ride along the tow-paths of this 4.5km canal, once derelict but now reborn as a haven from the city hustle.
