Programme du circuit

Day 1

Paris

Bonjour et bienvenue en France, un pays qui possède une histoire riche et variée, dont la littérature, l'art et la musique se font l'écho. Nous commençons notre visite par la capitale romantique de Paris, souvent surnommée la "ville lumière". Des boulevards bordés d'arbres, des ruelles pavées et une architecture charmante se cachent à chaque coin de rue de cette ville emblématique qui respire le style et l'élégance. Bien connue pour avoir servi de décor à de nombreux films et productions célèbres, Paris abrite quelques-uns des sites les plus reconnaissables au monde, dont la tour Eiffel.


Nous ne voulons pas que vous manquiez un seul instant de votre soirée française, c'est pourquoi nous vous recommandons d'arriver à votre destination de départ avant 15 heures.


Après avoir rencontré nos compagnons de voyage et notre directeur d'excursion pour un verre de bienvenue, nous profiterons d'une brève introduction à la ville, en nous promenant l'après-midi dans quelques-unes de ses belles rues. Après avoir flâné devant certains sites locaux, nous nous rendrons dans un restaurant local. Nous y dégusterons les délicieuses saveurs de la cuisine française, avant de retourner à notre hébergement.


(Dîner)

Point de départ

19 Rue Du Commandant René Mouchotte, 75014 Paris, France

14:00 - 15:00

Day 2

Paris - Amboise - Tours

En saluant Paris ce matin, nous prendrons une route relaxante à travers la magnifique campagne française en direction de la vallée de la Loire. Datant de plus de mille ans, la vallée de la Loire est entourée de magnifiques vignobles vallonnés et de vergers. Grâce aux rois, reines, ducs et nobles qui ont construit de magnifiques châteaux et aux villages médiévaux pittoresques qui parsèment la région, la vallée de la Loire donne aujourd'hui l'impression d'entrer dans un véritable conte de fées.


En fin de matinée, nous atteindrons Chartres, où nous découvrirons la merveilleuse architecture et la riche histoire de la ville au cours d'une visite à pied. Nous profiterons ensuite d'une visite guidée de son impressionnante cathédrale de style gothique, construite en 1220, avant de disposer d'un peu de temps libre pour déjeuner et explorer davantage ses rues médiévales.


Ensuite, nous continuerons vers la ville d'Amboise pour visiter le Château du Clos Lucé, où le célèbre artiste et ingénieur Léonard de Vinci a vécu et travaillé au XIVe siècle. Nous verrons l'atelier de Léonard de Vinci, sa chambre à coucher et des répliques de ses célèbres inventions au cours d'une visite du château.


Nous terminerons la journée à Tours, où nous nous installerons dans notre hôtel pour les deux prochaines nuits.


(Petit déjeuner)

Day 3

Vallée de la Loire

Réveillez-vous dans la charmante ville de Tours et commencez la journée en douceur avant de partir à la découverte des nombreux châteaux de la région. Nous commencerons par le petit village de Chenonceaux, qui abrite l'un des châteaux les plus connus de la région, le Château de Chenonceau. Dans sa forme actuelle, le château a été construit entre 1513 et 1517 sur les rives du Cher et abrite une collection exquise de meubles et d'œuvres d'art. Nous explorerons ses salles opulentes et ses jardins manucurés avant de nous rendre dans un domaine viticole local.


Expérience spéciale

Profitez d'une visite souterraine et d'une dégustation au domaine viticole des Caves Monmousseau, célèbre pour ses fines bulles et son labyrinthe de caves creusées dans le tuffeau.


En vous aventurant dans la ville de Montrichard, vous participerez à une visite guidée des caves de la Maison Monmousseau. Creusées dans le tuffeau naturel, les caves créent une température parfaite de 12 degrés Celsius pour le vieillissement du vin mousseux, mais vous aurez peut-être besoin d'une veste ! Profitez d'une dégustation des célèbres vins de Monmousseau, accompagnée d'une sélection de délices locaux.


Nous retournons ensuite à Tours et profitons de la soirée pour nous détendre. Pourquoi ne pas vous promener le long des ruines romaines bien conservées ou vous imprégner de l'atmosphère vibrante de la ville avec un vin à la main ?


(Petit déjeuner)

Day 4

Tours - Angers - Rennes

Après le petit-déjeuner, nous nous rendrons en voiture dans le charmant village de Villandry. Petit mais pittoresque, avec ses charmantes ruelles bordées de cottages du XVe siècle, notre visite nous mènera au Château de Villandry. Habité depuis la Renaissance, le grand château abrite une architecture extérieure exquise et plusieurs hectares de jardins verdoyants. Nous passerons du temps dans le parc, à explorer les haies parfaitement entretenues, les arbres taillés avec soin et les fleurs colorées.


Nous nous dirigerons ensuite vers la ville animée d'Angers, où nous visiterons l'imposante forteresse de pierre du Château d'Angers, qui date de 1230. Au cours de notre visite, nous apprendrons comment la forteresse a été construite et l'histoire à laquelle elle a survécu avant d'admirer sa possession la plus précieuse, la tapisserie de l'Apocalypse, longue de 100 mètres et datant du XIVe siècle. Représentant des scènes du Livre de l'Apocalypse, la tapisserie de l'Apocalypse est le plus grand ensemble de tapisseries médiévales qui ait survécu.


L'après-midi, nous nous dirigeons vers la ville universitaire de Rennes, animée d'une atmosphère vibrante et du caractère charmant de sa vieille ville. La capitale de la région Bretagne est peut-être surtout connue pour ses maisons médiévales à colombages, dont la plus ancienne date du XVIe siècle.


(Petit déjeuner)

Day 5

Rennes - Dinan - Saint Malo

Ce matin, nous ferons une visite guidée de la ville de Rennes, en passant par le Palais du Parlement de Bretagne, l'ancien parlement breton. Au fur et à mesure que nous avançons dans le mélange d'ancien et de nouveau, nous nous émerveillons de la quintessence de l'architecture française et de la vieille ville médiévale avant de visiter la cathédrale de Rennes. À l'intérieur, vous verrez les dalles de marbre rare provenant du Forum romain qui ornent l'autel, ainsi que le mélange des styles gothique et néoclassique ajoutés au cours de ses nombreuses transformations.


En direction du nord-ouest, nous continuons vers la ville de Dinan, où de pittoresques rues pavées sont bordées de maisons à colombages datant du Moyen-Âge. Vous aurez l'occasion de vous promener dans la ville et de trouver un endroit pour déjeuner.


Dans l'après-midi, nous nous rendons dans la ville historique fortifiée de Saint-Malo. Située sur la Manche, dans la région française de Bretagne, Saint-Malo a été habitée pour la première fois au VIIIe siècle. Une richesse historique est abritée entre ses anciens murs, avec de charmantes ruelles menant à de beaux bâtiments et à un littoral sablonneux. Profitez de la soirée pour découvrir la ville - Notre conseil ? Visitez l'une des nombreuses et délicieuses crêperies pour le dîner !


(Petit déjeuner)

Day 6

Saint Malo

Ce matin, nous nous rendrons à la Tour Solidor de Saint-Servan, un donjon fortifié à trois tours construit au XIIe siècle. Après avoir contemplé les hauteurs imposantes de cette structure défensive, nous nous installerons dans le car pour admirer le paysage côtier du nord de la Bretagne en continuant vers le Cap Fréhel.


Caractérisée par des falaises spectaculaires qui plongent abruptement dans l'eau, cette péninsule abrite des landes fertiles et des formations géologiques uniques que nous passerons du temps à admirer - en gardant un œil sur la diversité de l'avifaune qui afflue dans la région !


De retour à Saint-Malo, vous disposerez d'un peu de temps libre pour manger un morceau avant de vous retrouver pour une visite guidée du port. En serpentant à travers la ville, nous verrons les forts de Saint-Malo et nous nous rendrons sur les remparts de la ville pour une promenade autour des anciennes murailles, en profitant des vues sur la Manche.


L'après-midi, nous nous rendrons dans la ville côtière de Cancale pour visiter une ferme ostréicole locale. Nous découvrirons le processus d'élevage des huîtres et dégusterons les produits les plus frais de la ferme, avant de retourner à Saint-Malo pour une soirée libre.


(Petit déjeuner)

Day 7

Saint Malo - Mont St Michel - Bayeux

Aujourd'hui, gardez votre appareil photo à portée de main pendant que nous nous dirigeons vers le magnifique Mont Saint-Michel. Cette forteresse classée au patrimoine mondial de l'UNESCO est perchée sur un îlot entouré par le clapotis des marées de la baie du Mont Saint-Michel. En approchant de la chaussée qui relie le Mont Saint-Michel au continent, admirez la beauté de l'abbaye bénédictine, érigée en 966 et qui semble défier la gravité en s'élevant au-dessus des bancs de sable. Nous ferons une visite guidée de l'abbaye avant de profiter d'un peu de temps libre dans ce décor de conte de fées pour déjeuner.


En début d'après-midi, nous nous rendrons à Ducy-Sainte-Marguerite et visiterons les vergers de pommes de Ducy. Nous ferons une visite de la propriété qui produit du cidre, du vinaigre de cidre, du jus de pomme et l'apéritif, le Pommeau de Normandie. Après la visite, nous ferons goûter à nos papilles les délicieuses boissons à base de pommes, avant de poursuivre vers notre prochaine destination.


Dans la soirée, nous arriverons à notre hôtel à Bayeux, une base populaire pour explorer les sites tristement célèbres du Débarquement en Normandie. Vous pourrez profiter de la soirée pour découvrir la ville. Vous pouvez envisager une promenade parmi les élégantes demeures des XVIIe et XVIIIe siècles qui bordent les rues médiévales de Bayeux.


Journée difficile

La journée d'aujourd'hui est particulièrement difficile, avec de longues périodes de marche, souvent sur un terrain accidenté et dans des zones de haute altitude ou de chaleur et d'humidité.


(Petit déjeuner)

Day 8

Région Normandie

La journée d'aujourd'hui est consacrée à la découverte de l'histoire remarquable de la région Normandie. La Normandie a connu une histoire mouvementée, de l'invasion de l'Angleterre par les Normands en 1066 à la bataille de Normandie en 1944. Aujourd'hui, la région est connue pour ses paysages côtiers à couper le souffle, ses villages pittoresques et ses églises gothiques, ainsi que pour être un centre culturel et culinaire de la France - et la patrie du camembert !


Nous commencerons par Colleville-sur-Mer (également connue sous le nom d'Omaha Beach), où nous visiterons le cimetière et le mémorial américains de Normandie. Nous découvrirons les événements poignants de la Seconde Guerre mondiale et rendrons hommage à ceux qui ont servi avant de continuer vers la Pointe du Hoc, une falaise qui a joué un rôle important pendant le conflit. Nous continuerons jusqu'à l'église de Sainte-Mère (également connue sous le nom d'Utah Beach), où nous nous arrêterons brièvement pour déjeuner.


Expérience spéciale

Remontez le temps jusqu'en 1944 et explorez les sites importants liés au jour J de la Seconde Guerre mondiale au cours d'une excursion en jeep ouverte de la Seconde Guerre mondiale.


Au cours de cette expérience unique, nous monterons dans une jeep classique de la Seconde Guerre mondiale pour explorer le paysage normand d'un point de vue différent, en nous plongeant dans l'histoire des lieux clés liés à l'invasion de 1944.


Journée difficile

La journée d'aujourd'hui est particulièrement difficile, avec de longues périodes de marche, souvent sur un terrain accidenté et dans des zones de haute altitude ou de chaleur et d'humidité.


(Petit déjeuner)

Day 9

Bayeux - Honfleur - Rouen

En quittant Bayeux ce matin, notre journée commence avec du fromage lorsque nous nous dirigeons vers la ville de Livarot ! Nous nous arrêterons à la Fromagerie E. Graindorge, où nous dégusterons les fromages traditionnels produits dans cette fromagerie familiale depuis trois décennies.


Ensuite, direction le port coloré de Honfleur, qui n'est pas sans rappeler le Copenhague danois. Situé sur la rive sud de la Seine, Honfleur était très apprécié des peintres impressionnistes français tels que Claude Monet et Eugène Boudin. Profitez d'un peu de temps libre pour explorer son port de pêche historique et son port de plaisance qui servait autrefois de plaque tournante pour le commerce.


En début d'après-midi, vous poursuivrez votre route vers Rouen, la capitale culturelle de la Normandie. Avec des siècles d'histoire, une architecture préservée et un port charmant, Rouen conserve encore de nombreuses cicatrices de son passé tumultueux. Nichée sur les rives de la Seine, la ville abrite une cathédrale célèbre pour les coups de pinceau de Claude Monet, des maisons médiévales à colombages et une histoire mouvementée, dont le bûcher de Jeanne d'Arc en 1431.


Rouen est également réputée pour ses fortes traditions gastronomiques, que nous aurons le plaisir de découvrir ce soir, lors d'un dîner d'adieu dans un restaurant local.


(Petit déjeuner, Dîner)

Day 10

Rouen - Giverny - Paris

Après le petit-déjeuner, nous explorerons la ville de Rouen à pied. Au fil des rues, nous passerons devant l'ancien palais royal, le Palais de Justice, avant de visiter la célèbre cathédrale de la ville. Ce chef-d'œuvre gothique est connu pour ses trois tours distinctes et abrite le sarcophage de Richard Cœur de Lion, ancien roi d'Angleterre et figure emblématique de la troisième croisade. Nous nous aventurerons également à l'intérieur de l'église Sainte-Jeanne d'Arc, qui se trouve à l'endroit exact où l'héroïne a été brûlée sur le bûcher pour hérésie au XVe siècle.


Notre plongée dans l'histoire de Jeanne d'Arc se poursuit au Musée historique Jeanne d'Arc, où nous serons plongés dans l'épopée grâce à des expositions captivantes sur le site de son second procès, le palais de l'archevêque.


Après notre visite, nous nous rendrons en voiture au pittoresque village français de Giverny, où se trouvent la dernière résidence et les jardins de Claude Monet. Nous aurons l'occasion de nous immerger dans ce cadre luxuriant, en explorant les jardins de fleurs et les étangs de nénuphars qui ont inspiré de nombreuses œuvres célèbres du peintre impressionniste.


En quittant la beauté de Giverny, notre visite s'achèvera ce soir, lorsque nous arriverons à Paris vers 18 heures. Nous espérons que vous repartirez avec de fabuleux souvenirs en disant "au revoir" à nos nouveaux amis et aux incroyables paysages du nord de la France.

­ 

You agree that the deductions and cancellation charges specified above are reasonable, represent a genuine pre-estimate of our loss and are required to protect our legitimate business interests. For group departures, a transfer of a confirmed booking to another departure date at your request is deemed to be cancellation of the original booking.

­ 

ILLNESS OR VACCINATION STATUS PREVENTING TRAVEL  

If due to any illness, suspected illness or failure to satisfy any required tests (such as a PCR or rapid antigen test in relation to Covid-19) or country specific vaccination requirements: 

­ 

an airline or other common carrier refuses you carriage;

a hotel or vessel refuses to accommodate you; or

we or our suppliers (acting reasonably) exclude you from the trip

and you are consequently prevented from commencing or continuing your trip, then:

­ 

if you have already commenced your trip, we will provide you with reasonable assistance to arrange alternative travel arrangements or to continue the trip. This will be at your cost.

if you have not commenced your trip then we regret we will not be in a position to provide such assistance.

We will not be liable to refund the cost of your trip (or any part of it) because we would have already paid (or committed to pay) suppliers and we would have already performed significant work preparing for the delivery of your trip and servicing your booking. 

­ 

We will not be responsible for any other loss or loss you incur in connection with your booking (for example, airfares and visa expenses) if you are prevented from commencing or continuing your trip in these circumstances.

­ 

CANCELLATIONS OR RESCHEDULING BY US

In these Booking Conditions, the term Force Majeure means an event or events beyond our control and which we could not have reasonably prevented, and includes but is not limited to: (a) natural disasters (including not limited to flooding, fire, earthquake, landslide, volcanic eruption), adverse weather conditions (including hurricane or cyclone), high or low water levels; (b) war, armed conflict, industrial dispute, civil strife, terrorist activity or the threat of such acts; epidemic, pandemic; (d) any new or change in law, order, decree, rule or regulation of any government authority (including travel advisories and restrictions).

­ 

Force Majeure – Prior to travel

­ 

If in our reasonable opinion we (either directly or through our employees, contractors, suppliers or agents) consider that your travel arrangements cannot safely or lawfully proceed due to a Force Majeure Event then we at our discretion may elect to:

­ 

reschedule your travel arrangements (in whole or in part); and/or

cancel your travel arrangements (in whole or in part), in which case our contract with you will terminate (in whole or in part).

If we cancel any of your travel arrangements, neither of us will have any claim for damages against the other for the cancelled arrangements. However, we will refund payments attributable to the cancelled travel arrangements less: (a) unrecoverable third party costs and other expenses incurred by us for the cancelled travel arrangements; (b) overhead charges incurred by us relative to the price of the cancelled travel arrangements; and (c) fair compensation for work undertaken by us in relation to the cancelled travel arrangements until the time of cancellation and in connection with the processing of any refund.

­ 

Force Majeure – During travel

­ 

If due to Force Majeure we cancel travel arrangements after your trip has commenced, we will provide you with a refund of recoverable third party costs for cancelled travel arrangements only.

­ 

Force Majeure – General

­ 

If we provide you with any alternative services or assistance where travel arrangements are cancelled or rescheduled due to Force Majeure, then you agree the amount to be refunded to you will be reduced by the value of these services and assistance.

­ 

You acknowledge that the terms in this section are reasonably necessary to protect our legitimate business interests. We strongly encourage you to purchase travel insurance that adequately responds to cancellation and rescheduling risks associated with Force Majeure events.

­ 

Other cancellations

­ 

If we cancel your travel arrangements for reasons other than Force Majeure, you will be offered (at your election) a refund of all funds paid, or the offer of a trip of substantially equal quality if appropriate.

­ 

We will not be responsible to you for any other expenses or loss you incur if your travel arrangements are rescheduled or cancelled whether or not due to Force Majeure.

­ 

AMENDMENTS BY YOU

We will endeavour to accommodate amendments and additional requests. You acknowledge that these may not be possible to fulfil, and for group departures a transfer of a booking to a different departure is deemed a cancellation. An amendment fee of $250.00 per booking will be levied to cover communication and administration costs for any changes to bookings. You will also be required to pay any additional costs charged by suppliers.

­ 

AMENDMENTS BY US

Prior to travel

­ 

Occasionally, we may need to make amendments or modifications to the itinerary and its inclusions and you acknowledge our right to do this. If we become aware of a significant change to your itinerary or its inclusions prior to the commencement of your trip (where the trip can still proceed), then we will notify you within a reasonable time.

­ 

During travel

­ 

You acknowledge that the itinerary, modes of transport, accommodation and/or the trip’s inclusions may need to change during your trip due to local circumstances beyond our reasonable control, including road conditions, poor weather, changes in transport schedules, and/or vehicle breakdowns. You agree that we have the right to pass on any costs we incur for alternative arrangements we put in place for your benefit in these circumstances.

­ 

General

­ 

To the fullest extent permitted by law, we will not be responsible for any omissions or modifications to the itinerary or the inclusions due to Force Majeure or other circumstances beyond our control happening after we have accepted your booking. This includes any loss of enjoyment or distress caused by omissions or modifications.

­ 

If you are entitled to any compensation for any modifications or omissions, then you agree it will be reduced by the value of any alternative services we provide which you accept. 

­ 

We will not be responsible to you for any other expenses or loss you incur resulting from any amendment or change to the itinerary or its inclusions.

If you are not fully and validly vaccinated against Covid-19 in the destination(s) where services are to be provided, and particular suppliers refuse to provide you with travel arrangements, then you agree you will not be entitled to any refund for those arrangements. We will not be responsible to you for any loss or expenses you incur (including loss of enjoyment or the costs of alternative arrangements) if you are denied services in these circumstances.

­ 

CLIENT NAMES – EXACTLY AS PER PASSPORT

For security reasons, airlines and our overseas suppliers require names to be given exactly as stated in your passport. If you do not advise the correct information and we have to re-issue airline tickets or other documentation, then you will be responsible for any fees charged (such as airline cancellation charges or re-issue fees) in addition to our own reasonable administration fees.

­ 

TRAVEL INSURANCE

It is a condition of your booking that you are adequately insured for the duration of your trip. We recommend comprehensive travel insurance to cover cancellation, medical requirements, luggage, repatriations and additional expenses. The choice of insurer is yours. We strongly suggest you purchase insurance at the time you pay your deposit. This is because cancellation fees and charges are payable from that time.

­ 

ACCOMMODATION

We reserve the right to substitute hotels, vessels and other forms of accommodation with properties or vessels of a comparable or higher standard.

­ 

DIETARY REQUIREMENTS

Special dietary requests are required to be notified to us at the time of booking. Although we will use reasonable endeavours to accommodate requests, we cannot guarantee requests will be met by suppliers. It is your responsibility to check that meals and beverages do not contain any allergens. We expressly disclaim any liability for meals or beverages that contain allergens.

­ 

PASSPORTS, VISAS

It is a requirement that you hold a valid passport and any required visas for your trip. It is your responsibility to ensure that you are in possession of the necessary documentation to comply with the laws and regulations of the countries to be visited.

­ 

AUTHORITY ON TOUR

When joining a group tour, you undertake to conduct yourself in a manner conducive to good group dynamics. If you act in a manner that threatens or disrupts the safety or enjoyment of others on the tour, the tour leader may, acting reasonably, require that you leave the tour. You will not be entitled to any refund for unused services and you will be responsible for any additional costs you incur.

­ 

VACCINATIONS

In some countries, it may be mandatory for you to be fully and validly vaccinated against COVID-19 with a vaccine approved by the Therapeutic Goods Administration. 

­ 

If you fail to provide evidence of vaccination by the time required, then you acknowledge and agree that this will be deemed a cancellation by yourself. Please refer to the “Cancellation by You” section above.

­ 

It is your responsibility to obtain vaccinations and preventative medicines as may be required for the duration of the trip. Any information provided by us is given in good faith.

FITNESS TO TRAVEL DECLARATION

At Bunnik Tours, we pride ourselves on our ability to create unique, once in a lifetime small group tours that are filled with incredible experiences you might not be able to have on your own, or in a larger group. However, that does mean aspects of our itineraries can be challenging for some travellers.

­ 

We want to make sure all Bunnik Tours travellers enjoy their trip, not struggle through it, so let’s work together to ensure you’re on the right tour for your fitness level.

­ 

A Bunnik Tour is for independently minded travellers with good levels of mobility. Designed for the not too young and not too old, we don’t put specific age limits on our tours but we do impose a firm policy on the level of fitness required by all our clients. This is to ensure your safety, and the safety of other travellers. Because of this, we reserve the right to refuse bookings if we feel that the requirements of the tour are too demanding.

­ 

Fitness to Travel Requirements

­ 

Within seven days of your booking, you will need to complete a Passenger Registration form, which also includes a fitness to travel declaration.

­ 

In this declaration, you must confirm you’re able to do the following:

­ 

Walk for a minimum of 2-3 hours daily, on uneven surfaces without the use of any walking aid at a group pace (often in humid forest areas in Africa and South & Central America)

Regularly walk up multiple flights of stairs and short, steep hills

Stand for extended periods of time without needing to sit down, including in hot/humid climates

Carry your own luggage

Get on and off various modes of transport without assistance, including small boats

Drive along very bumpy, dirt and gravel roads for extended period of time, particularly in Africa

Manage extended periods of time at high altitude (3,000-4,000 metres) when travelling in Africa and South & Central America.

It is also important to note there can be limited medical facilities in remote areas.

­ 

While we will still confirm your place on your tour, flight tickets cannot be issued until the Passenger Registration form has been received. Additional costs may be incurred if completed forms are not received by Bunnik Tours within these time frames.

­ 

If you do not feel that you can confidently manage all of the requirements set out above, please work with our team of Travel Specialists to find an alternative that is better suited to your current level of fitness.

­ 

Travelling With a Medical Condition

­ 

Passengers must inform us and the service provider of any medical conditions which may affect your ability to participate in the tour.

­ 

At our discretion we, including the service provider, can exclude you from a tour or in any activity if we consider that you are unable to safely participate in that tour or activity or if we consider your participation may place the safety of other guests at risk. 

­ 

We reserve the right to cancel your booking if any changed or non-disclosed medical conditions mean that you will require special assistance from our personnel which we cannot reasonably provide. We strongly suggest that your travel insurance policy includes comprehensive cancellation coverage.

­ 

We will not be liable for any damage, injury, death or loss of any kind arising from your failure to fully disclose relevant medical information or resulting from any pre-existing medical condition.
