France Custom-made Trips & Experiences

Hotel Lorette’s rooms were well sized, comfortable, and it was a nice perk to be able to visit their other locations when needing a break while walking around the city. Nicely located nearby the metro, grocery store, pharmacy and many wonderful restaurants.

We had the most delicious food on this tour! Was so interesting to learn about not only the food but also the skilled artisans. Felt personalized and not rushed. We were full after!

So happy we went in the off season to learn about D Day and visit the historic sites and museum. There was so much to learn and our guide Antoine was a wealth of knowledge. Absolutely worth it.

You really could spend all day at the Louve. Iconic for a reason

Amazing views of the city. Very easy to do on your own. Look for the signs to go under the ground to the Arc as you cannot dodge traffic.

Very interesting to learn about champagne, Dom P, and visit multiple champagne houses. Appreciated being able to see both large and small scale production. Nice there was no pressure to purchase, only enjoy the day. Lunch in Epernay was also nice. Our guide Matthieu was knowledgeable, easy to understand, and fun.

Absolute must for anyone visiting the city for the first time. Easy way to see the big attraction sites. Bundle up as being on the water is always a bit chilly (have done this at night both in March and June).

This was a hidden gem tucked away in Amboise. It was very clean and well appointed. We had plenty of space for our family of four. The staff was incredibly friendly and the breakfast was amazing. The yard also looked beautiful. We all wished it had been a bit warmer to hand outside and use the pool.

This was a great fit for our family of four. We had plenty of space to relax and spread out. The swing set was a big hit with my son. We enjoyed the bar and breakfast too. It was in a great location – very close to the town center but also remote and quiet.

The bike tour of Versailles was an unexpected highlight of our trip! We did this on our last day of vacation, and I had reservations about spending so much time at Versailles. I am so glad we did it. The bike ride was a lot of fun and helped us feel active. Plus we got to see parts of the palace that we definitely would not have seen otherwise. Our guide was a lot of fun and gave us so much historic information. Marie Antionette's hamlet was spectacular. We got lost (in a good way) in her gardens and had so much fun. The farmers market in town was one of our favorite parts of the trip. We bought so much local food: cheese, fruit, meat and bread, and then enjoyed it in the palace gardens. I would highly recommend this activity.

This was a perfect wine tasting for our family of four. My husband and I wanted to experience at least one wine tasting, but since we travelled with our children we knew it would be hard. This was a great stop and scratched the wine-tasting itch. The guide was fun and knowledgeable and he kept our kids engaged as well.

Our day of exploring the D-Day sites was spectacular. This was the highlight of the trip for my 10 year old son and husband. However, my daughter and I also thoroughly enjoyed it. Our guide, Manon, was very knowledgeable and made us have fun. She realized how much my son loved WWII and really talked to him about all the facts and history. The weather was spectacular, and because we visited in March the sites were not busy at all. We were able to explore bunkers, walk on the beach, and see some of the small towns. It was an emotional day but we all enjoyed it. I learned so much and have a greater respect for this part of history now.

We weren't sure we wanted to see another chapel after the Notre Dame, but are so happy we did. Audrey encouraged us to stop by this breathtaking church. It did not dissapoint! Sainte-Chapelle is absolutely breathtaking. It was also a quick visit.

The Louvre Treasure Hunt was a highlight of our trip! Our guide was incredibly knowledgeable and kept our kids (ages 13 and 10) engaged the whole time. She realized how interested our kids were and spent extra time with them. The treasure hunt was a fun addition and helped keep the kids happy and focused. They even won a game at the end of the hunt. We were able to see all the BIG highlights of the museum in a good amount of time.

My whole family was a bit iffy about adding this on our first night, but it was perfect. It kept us awake after the long flight from America, but was also relaxing. We shared a glass of wine and juice and enjoyed the scenery. The sunset was incredible.

This was a perfect first day activity for our family. We all loved it more than expected. The weather was PERFECT. Our kids were blown away with the architecture and visiting the top floor. We only wish we had a little more time.

The hotel was terrific. We loved the two rooms. I would suggest you have more guest-friendly way to get bags to the rooms. Dragging our bags over the cobblestone walk was not fun and not good for the luggage wheels. I mentioned earlier that this seemed very early season as it was obvious there were staff still in training.

The intern guide gave us the tour and wine tasting. He was amazing and knowledgeable. Unfortunately, he was also taking care of the counter. Many people came in and he was the only staff available to answer questions, so the time with us (the tour) was interrupted often. Our guide felt bad and apologized, then continued on professionally and graciously.

This was a lot for a beginner biker, but our guide spent time with each of the riders in the group to know their capabilities. He as a great guide. We're pretty sure he owned the business. A great experience overall!

This wasn't the location were expecting to go to, however the guide was amazing. We were given incredible information about he region, as well as her personal climbing experience, knowledge about nature, and she shared snacks and told us about the seasonal traditions for food.

She was a well-known local and was extremely knowledgeable. She took us to a small local business that gave us information about food and wines. She told us about local traditions for food and shared pastries that were available only a this time of year.
