From prehistory to Renaissance, the history of France has been rich and turbulent. This heritage is very much present in the territory and during your motorcycle trip in France, you will have the opportunity to visit the vestiges of this inexhaustible heritage. The French Revolution in 1789 marked the beginning of the contemporary era and various republics. Since the Declaration of the Rights of the Man and of the Citizen in 1789, France is often called “the land of human rights” and is also known for its Republican motto: “Liberty, Equality, Fraternity”.  The 20th century was marked by two world wars. As a founding member of the European Union, after the Second World War, France enjoys peaceful relationships with its neighbouring countries. Thanks to the richness of its cultural heritage and the diversity of its natural heritage, France is the most visited country in the world. Among the very well-known sites, we boast Paris and the Eiffel Tower, the châteaux of the Loire valley, Mont Saint Michel, the Aiguille du midi or even the Wine route in Bourgogne or Bordeaux. The reputation of the French charm and its way of life is well established, offering an unparalleled backdrop for your motorbike tour in France.
