Let's Go France - The Student Travel Guide

France is often distilled down to a pretty picture: the Eiffel Tower illuminated against the night sky, a field of lavender in Provence, or an extravagant chteau reflected in the still waters of the Loire. The image is nice, yes but the fearless researchers at Let's Go have dug a little deeper. Theyve braved bicycle trips in torrential downpours, mixed-up ferry schedules, and overbooked hostels to weed out the authentic from the postcard-perfect. Whether travelers are searching for an Impressionist masterpiece or the taste of an authentic bouillabaisse, France is bound to leave them breathless.
