Top Highlights

What’s Included

We design unforgettable and luxurious journeys just for you. Our bespoke trips include:

Best Time to Visit

Experience the best of both worlds in France! Spring (April-May) in Paris offers delightful weather for strolling the Seine and admiring iconic landmarks. The South of France awakens during this time, with vibrant markets and comfortable temperatures ideal for exploring charming villages and lavender fields (mid-June to mid-July). Opt for September if you prefer warm days in both regions, with fewer crowds in Paris and the South of France still boasting sunshine perfect for enjoying the beaches.

Itinerary

Arrive in Nice

Nice

Arrive at your luxury hotel located on Nice’s renowned Promenade des Anglais. Stroll along the Promenade to the Vieux Ville and enjoy the atmosphere along the Cours Saleya. While in Nice, you have plenty of options! Take a day to relax on the sunny beaches of the French Riviera, explore local markets, and dine in local establishments on fresh seafood. Nice is also the perfect launchpoint for day trips. Take a train to Monaco, where you can see the yacht-filled Port Hercules, play at the famous Casino de Monte Carlo, or explore the Prince’s Palace. Visit the nine themed gardens and tea rooms of the Villa Ephrussi Rothschild in St.-Jean-Cap-Ferrat or stroll through the walled medieval port city of Antibes and visit its quintessential French farmer markets. For a place to see and be seen, you may also desire to stop in Cannes to walk along the famous Promenade de Croisette. Check out the storybook hilltop town of Èze with cute restaurants and local markets. Art enthusiasts should visit the medieval town of Saint-Paul-de-Vance for its numerous museums and galleries.
Suggested Accommodation : Hyatt Regency Nice Palais de la Méditerranée

Saint-Raphaël

Today a private driver will take you from Nice to Saint-Raphaël, a town that offers all of the service, style, and natural beauty of the French Riviera with fewer crowds than its neighbours up and down the coast. Your private driver will whisk to your ornate, Moorish-style Villa Mauresque upon the sea. After enjoying a drink by the seaside terrace or on the private beach, you may choose to explore this beautiful town on the coast, or take a private boat tour along its many azure rocky coves.

If an afternoon of sheer opulence strikes your fancy, why not hop over to fashionable St. Tropez for lunch on the beach in Pampelonne?

Staying in Saint-Raphaël offers the expansive Jardin Bonaparte, as well as an Archaeology museum that reveals the Roman and Greek influences on the town.

 
Suggested Accommodation : La Villa Mauresque

Paris

Paris is an unrivalled hub of fashion, architecture, arts, and cuisine. It is the centrepiece of many great novels and films and has dazzled tourists, diplomats, foodies, and fashionistas alike for centuries.

With the luxury Hôtel Madame Rêve as your oasis, stroll the charming cobblestone streets, sit and sip coffee at a streetside café, and enjoy delectable baked goods from a local boulangerie. Marvel at world-famous monuments such as the Notre Dame Cathedral, Eiffel tower, and walk the iconic Champs Élysées to the Arc de Triomphe.

Each arrondissement has something unique to offer, from the historic passageways of the deuxième to the luxury shopping of the huitième. We can enhance your experience in a plethora of ways. We offer skip-the-line tickets to the best galleries and museums, such as the Louvre, the Musée d’Orsay, and the Petit Palais.
