DISCOVER FRANCE is the leader in self-guided bicycle tours to France and specializes in travel to France including walking tours, Paris travel, hotels, Paris passes, cooking tours, and other themes for a France vacation. We are French and American owned and operated. In 2006 we celebrate 12 years in business! We sell more than $1MUS/year in bicycle tours alone, exclusively to France! Want to contact us? send us an e-mail! Don't complete your travel plans without seeing our programs first! If you plan to go to France, then why not talk to a specialist!? Why us and why are we better? Knowledge - We are French, speak French, live/lived in France; we also provide extra services so that you can get all your France travel needs from one source, using our experience for a total package and not just your tour Flexibility - we can adapt tours to your needs, and we offer enough tours to meet just about everyone's needs. Lodging - an important component - always very good, and we offer several choices to help meet all budgets. Superior equipment - only for our clients; children sizes and equipment available. In 2006 we are upgrading even more in this area, our equipment is superior in every region! Trek and Eddy Merckx brands. Uniquely modified routes; upgraded hotels and choices of hotels. Our routes always minimize traffic and take charming options near the sites. It is with local expertise and support that we know these are the best rides. Local support - help always available, orientations, transfers, and other support services Extensive Pre-travel documentation designed by us to help you finalize and anticipate your tour Price - when you compare "apples to apples", there is no better value. We are not the cheapest option out there, but by comparison to luxury guided trips, our programs are incredible values offering many of the same places of lodging. And, for other companies that now offer self-guided, we know a small difference in price is not important for the superior quality we provide. Your vacation is valuable time, we won't let you risk it to save a few euros! For the most part, price is driven by hotels and the associated dining. It is easy to sell expensive luxury hotels, nobody is rarely, if ever, disappointed.

Our hotel selections for 2006 are even superior to 2005 in many cases and for the most part we focus only on 3 and 4 star hotels. Meals are typically gastronomic affairs -meaning very good quality and never the cheapest menu option. France is our savoir-faire, it is all we do! Our niche of France appeals to many travelers, and we pride ourselves in helping people discover this multi-faceted country. Within our niche of France, our sub-specialty is active vacations in the form of self-guided and guided biking and walking tours.

That's the message of this article from the Christian Science Monitor . Already a coast to coast flight can be had for as little as $180.00 with 14 days advance purchase. A close reading of the situation leaves me with a few concerns, however. First, if the consolidation of hubs and routes occurs this will leadto fewer seats in the air. This means less capacity to bring the hugecrowds to Orlando and Anaheim during the peak vacation seasons.Vacation Destinations had better be looking at alternate ways to getguests to the gates, more dependance on the international and localmarkets, or plan for flatter attendance patterns. Second, less capacity often results in increased demand. After thecurrent shakeout settles down expect to see a corresponding rise inprices, even on the low cost carriers, until some excess capacity isbuilt back into the system. Also expect there to be less flexibility inwhen and where you travel. The days of non-stop to your destination arewaning and the days of two-to-three hour layovers are once again uponus. Personally, the low cost airlines have worked just fine for me in mycoast to coast travel. I can usually find affordable non-stop flights.But they are less efficient going south to north on the west coast.What should be a 2 hour flight turns into a 5 hour ordeal with layovers and a trip on a commuter plane. I don't see the country becoming any less dependant on air travelanytime soon (and neither do the mega-vacation destinations like Las Vegas which keeps building new hotels). High Speed Rail is still a very expensive alternativeand, so far, impractical when large elevation changes exist. Gas pricesand time make driving much more than 6-8 hours in any direction lessefficient than flying and renting a car. Finally, there is one technology that might shift the balance oftravel. The radius at which it becomes less expensive to fly and rent acar could change dramatically with the wide spread use of fuel cells incars and dual hybrid/plug-n-go configurations. The complete economicramifications of this are left to those with more experience than I,but it will make the next five to ten years interesting to watch.
