Very Helpful Wine Region Guide of France

This guide book covers various regions of France including less known regions and contains from basic wine information to beginners to more advanced information for well-experienced travelers. I have traveled to certian wine regions in France a number of times in the past but still find this book very helpful and informative.

Fabulous Travel Guide for France: Many Off the Beaten Path Attractions

I got this book as adjunct to my Frommer's France Guide, but ended up using it as my main tour guide. We weren't primarily doing a wine tour (would have loved to do more, but with three kids along, couldn't do that much). But, as it turns out, almost all of France is a wine region so the book pretty much encompassed every place we went. But what made it really valuable is all the off-the-beaten path tourist attractions it covered. For instance, through this guide we found: Monkey Mountain in Alsace (Barbary Macacques from North Africa, wandering amongst humans in a wooded enclosure), the prehistoric cave of Aze with bones of cave bears and an underground river (not mentioned in Frommer's -- local people in Beaune, 45 minutes away didn't even know about it!), and, best of all, a wine-tasting Chateau in Savigny-les-Beaunes with an attached Motocross and Aviation Museum (head to the museum kids, we'll be along in a while!) I couldn't believe what a great guide it turned out to be for a family trip.
