Amandine Baillarguès

Originally from the south of France, I have a deep attachment to my region. Driven by an insatiable curiosity and a passion for adventure and discovery, I’ve had the privilege of exploring my country through numerous road trips, which has made me fall in love with its treasures. My goal is simple: to offer my guests stays that convey this love for France, by introducing them to the diversity of its landscapes, its gastronomy, its activities, and, most importantly, its people, who are at the heart of our experiences. In short, to let them experience the true French art of living.

What places and activities do you specialize in?

"As a gourmet and wine lover, I'm well versed in the history of French gastronomy."

How did you get involved in travel?

"I had the opportunity to travel to Morocco for over a month with a local when I was 13. I had the chance to get off the beaten track and discover the country in one of the best ways possible: by sharing with the locals! Following this experience, I was hooked on a passion for discovering the world! Since then, I've continued to travel the world with my backpack and my converted van. France remains one of my favorite destinations for road trips."

Please share a unique travel experience you will never forget.

"It's hard to choose a travel experience. However, I could mention the experience of my solo trip to Colombia. Very stimulating, memories of magnificent landscapes and above all fabulous locals who welcomed me as if we'd known each other forever. "

This is a fantastic resource. When one of our destinations was cancelled because of holiday, our representative booked us an alternative that was probably better. All the arrangements were fantastic. (Our tour guide in Avignon even helped me out of a typically European parking mishap. He was great!) Additionally, each of our hotels were fantastic and the car rental was convenient and efficient. We were very pleased (if only someone could have lowered the temperatures in Provence that week. ) Read more
