Because it is so important to us that our travelers feel a warm French welcome while traveling in France, we have a meticulous selection process for hand-picking the B&Bs and activities we include in our package itineraries.

Emilie & Laura Selection Process

A first selection is made through our French network. We consider about 300 new accommodation and activities every year and only select about 20 to 30 of them. 

We check that the hosts or guides can speak conversational English

Each accommodation is personally visited by Laura  & Emilie and we make sure that it meets our requirements regarding the location, the quality of the welcome, the level of comfort.

Also the place needs to have a "something special".

Each activity is also tested by us. We take the tours, test the guides, taste the food, etc...not the most difficult part of the job. 

Each year, we go on several exploratory trips to meet with all our partners and look for new tips and hints, to make sure you will get the most up-to-date information.

Emilie & Guillaume did an amazing job organizing and helping us on our trip to France this month. I cannot speak highly enough! Everything was planned to perfection and things went smoothly. We did a few days in Paris, Normandy and Provence, and in each one what they planned was spectacular. We especially enjoyed the wine tasting and picnic in …
