Have you always wanted to tour the countryside of Normandy and Brittany, but have never been able to tear yourself away from the sights, shops, and restaurants of Paris? Get a sample of this rugged part of France, two regions as different as you can get from the cosmopolitan flair of the “City of Lights.”

Avanti Destinations has just released three excellent videos that you can view right from your desktop. View the ancient monastery just offshore between Normandy and Brittany at Mt. St. Michel; view the WWII graveyards and famous beaches on the Norman coast; see the picturesque harbors; and witness the landscapes that inspired the Impressionist art movement.

Avanti Destinations specializes in individual travel modules that allow vacationers traveling by themselves to take advantage of group travel rates at hotels and attractions. They also include an array of extra items, such as a tour of a lesser known winery, in their packages—things of which the average traveler might not be aware. In France, Avanti offers packages to the Loire Valley in addition to those to Brittany and Normandy.
