I usually answer “Whenever you can make it.” But the real answer is June, those long days of spring-to-summer when Paris is at its most vibrant, when you can still get a seat in a café of a village square in Provence, when you can still get a last-minute hotel room in Biarritz, when the tennis at Roland Garros is on TV (or better yet when you’re actually attending matches), when Normandy celebrates D-Day and the Liberation, before the biking routes of the Loire Valley get crowded, before traffic along the Riviera comes to a complete stop, when the Burgundy vineyards are in flower…

In a word: NOW!
