READ MORE ABOUT:
France: a country where life itself is an art form and food, drink, history and tradition are taken seriously. An explosives expert, a radical chef, a man who scales skyscrapers without ropes, and a bullfighter are among the characters who share their country and what it means to be French.
The revolutionary spirit is alive and well in France. It is also the thread that connects the characters and places in this action-packed exploration of this country's history, culture and geography. It starts with plans to blow up the Eiffel Tower—with fireworks—for Bastille Day, and journeys up the Alps to avalanche territory, across to still-dangerous battlefields, into territorial farmlands, and through gorgeous architectural treasures. Our guides are people who live and love the good life—"la belle vie" and surprise us with an intimate immersion into their country and their lives.
