We are on this tour that leaves April 29th
I believe this is a new tour this year
I will post our experiences when we get back
I would love to hear feedback on tis tour. During our Brittany/Normandy trip last year the Tauck representative that is in charge of setting up the Paris/Dordogne/Bordeaux tour tag along with us. She was really excited about the tour. They worked really hard at trying to have three nights at most hotels rather than changing hotels every other night. They had feedback from other land tours that this would be optimal and I would agree. We are planning to go in 2027, heading to England for 2026 and doing the Tulip cruise next month. So many places to go and so little time. Pleas let us know how the travel times were between location particularly the day between Lyon and Les Eyzies.
When I first started traveling with Tauck, it was more common for Tauck to stay places three nights in a hotel but people didn’t like that. This was called hub and spoke I believe, so you stay in one spot, but travel out each day to see sites, but that involves longer travel times. When you move hotels more frequently, you are likely traveling less on the buses to get to the sites from where your hotel is. These are of course ‘tours’ which involve ‘travel’ in one way or another.
For this tour the hotel number of nights is 3,2,3,3,2
