Dinan Base
Dinan is a medieval town, enclosed by ramparts overlooking the valley of the Rance (a spectacular sight). Try to keep a few hours available to visit this very lively town; it is at its best during the summer season. You will be able to visit the castle of the Duchess Anne and its museum, the Saint Sauveur Basilica and discover the old alleys including the famous Jerzual Road, the English Garden and the Clock Tower.
