Hi,

My partner and I are planning to go to France from mid-Janurary 2008 for just under 2 weeks. We'd like to get some advice in planning our trip. We'll be heading to Paris for a few nights initially, and then we're thinking of staying in either Epernay or the Loire Valley for a few nights as well. Is anyone able to advise how many days is sufficient to check out the sites both around Loire Valley and Epernay? Our idea for now is head ot Epernay for a day trip or so, then stay somewhere near the Loire Valley for around 2 nights. (or are there more sites at Epernay?)

Thanks for your response.
