Private Tours & Trips in France
If you choose a private France tour, you’ll see so much more than just Paris. While Paris is certainly worth checking out, how about Mont Saint-Michel, D-Day beaches, Omaha, and Lyon cuisine at Les Halles. Head to Normandy, Loire Valley, and the historic Ile de la Cité. Private means flexible schedule, spending longer places you like, skipping tourist traps. You're controlling the pace and focusing on areas based on your specific interests.

Mary • traveled in April
We enjoyed our tour of the hinterlands very much. Simon was wonderful to work with during the planning and pre-trip process. The boutique hotel had a wonderful staff who were happy to help in anyway that they could. It was wonderful to stay in one place for all four nights. The E bike tour was most enjoyable and Jerome was a wonderful guide. The tour to the Luberon villages was delightful. We very much enjoyed strolling through each of the villages. The wine tour was not what we are used to in the US. It was a bit disappointing that there was nowhere to sit to enjoy the tasting and felt quite rushed. The shuttle drivers that Simon had arranged for us were very professional and prompt. The vehicles were clean and we felt very safe. Aix-en-Provence is a beautiful village, larger and a bit busier than we anticipated.
