Brittany, France : May 2022
28 out of 35 spots already reserved!
WMPA Traveling Friends have a super plan for our next trip May 1 - 11, 2022 when we go to a magnificent part of France: Brittany. Adding Normandy, the return to Dulles International Airport is May 15. This province is intimate, ancient, and surrounded by water. We will be immersed in cultural explorations and activities including music, dance, and lots and lots of art! Our camaraderie is key, and the tour also benefits the orchestra financially. We have had several spaces available, and we would love to include you with us!
Normandy is our chance to appreciate the beachheads with a specialist guide. Bayeux is an area we will also enjoy, as well as some cliffside spaces north of the Beachheads. Then off to visit at Saint Malo, Dinan, with an optional day visit to Mont Saint Michel. We now spend 3 days at scenically unbelievable Côte d’ Granit Rose, along the Northern coast of Brittany. This part of the coast is truly magnificent and rock formations are otherworldly. The paths we walk are easy and well-marked, A visit to Sept Isles offers the experience of exotic bird life. We’ll have a nice surprise or 2 or 3 while in this area. We visit magical Locronan en route to Vannes: from Vannes we visit an artist’s haven, also Paul Gauguin’s Haven at Pont Aven and Concarneau. Our day with the Megalithic monuments at Carnac and Locmariaquer will be memorable. And we plan to visit King Arthur's mythical forest, today known as Paim Pont Forest. So is it in England or is it in France?
