5.0 out of 5 stars Rick Steves is the best!, February 9, 2000
By A Customer
This review is from: France: Burgundy, Provence & the Loire [VHS] (VHS Tape)
Rick Steves' PBS series is one of my "can't miss" TV shows every week, so this video, which combines a couple of his shows on France, is "magnifique". Steves gives lots of practical advice about travel in France, takes us to Burgundy wine country, a rural gite, wonderful restaurants (just looking at the food made my mouth water!), and the Chateaux of the Loire valley. I'm going to France this fall, so being able to get a preview of some of the places I'll see was wonderful.

No one is as good at doing Europe as Rick Steves. He has a down to earth style and really mixes it up with the locals, staying at small hotels, eating in mom & pop restaurants. He has a way of making you feel that you've seen the real France (or Italy, or Germany, etc.), not just the tourist destinations.

If you love France you'll love it even more after viewing this video. (Also check out the one on Paris, Normandy and Brittany. This one is my favorie, however...I've watched it many times in anticipation of my trip!)

Happy Travels!
