Voice of Travelers to Lorient

Lorient's Annual Celtic Festival

Lorient hosts the largest Celtic festival in the world each year, and I was lucky enough to be able to grab some cheap tickets from Air France for Lorient at the last minute. Air France provides a very professional service, and everything from checking in to getting my baggage was quick and easy. Lorient is a beautiful little French town, and it was packed full of people who had bought tickets from all over the world to see Lorient's world famous Celtic festival. I really enjoyed all the food and music, and I bought a number of books and pieces of art to take back from Lorient with me.

My Fishing Trip to Lorient

My brothers and I like to buy tickets to different prime fishing spots around the world. None of us had ever bought tickets to go fishing in the Atlantic off of France before, so we decided to buy some tickets with Ryanair to go fishing in Lorient. Our flight out to Lorient was great, and the staff were really nice. Lorient was a nice little town, and there were a number of high quality charter companies offering tickets for fishing trips. We chose the company that had the best balance of ticket price and experience, and spent four whole days just fishing and sharing stories. We all enjoyed our fishing trip to Lorient so much that we agreed to go again the next time that there were cheap tickets available.

Lorient Is a Great Place to Relax

Our family has always preferred buying tickets for nice and quiet little towns for our vacations. Some people like to buy tickets for glitzy tourist destinations with lots of action, but we prefer to buy tickets for places where we can blend in with the locals and see the world the way that they do. I bought the whole family a set of tickets with Sun Air of Scandinavia when they were having a special package deal. Our flight was with economy class tickets, but the quality of service felt like we were in first class. In Lorient we enjoyed our beautiful hotel, ate at some delicious local restaurants and checked out a bunch of the local shops in Lorient. We bought some tickets to go on a bus tour of Lorient, which was an excellent experience for the whole family.
