Meet your France Travel Agents
Marianne
I was born in France, into a French-Spanish family. From a young age, I was used to travel between these two countries, growing my fondness of traveling very early on. After some stints in Ireland and Spain, I ended up in Sicily.
For 4 years, I led groups and individuals across Sicily and the Amalfi Coast, from volcanoes to the Italian countryside, I got to know everything firsthand.
I decided to hang up my tour guide hat and started using my first-hand travel knowledge to help travelers worldwide to have the best trip possible in Italy. I can't wait to make your dream trip to Italy, Malta or France come true!
Valentine
Born and raised in the French Alps, I grew up in the middle of dairies and alpine pastures!
After a few years working as a luxury trip planner in Sri Lanka & Maldives, I moved to Switzerland to organize ski competitions in Verbier. In the end, I settled down in France in the warm-welcome Beaujolais wine region.
I love charming boutique hotels, activities to discover local culture, and give attention to the greatest details.
We focus on France, Switzerland and Germany - You can start your trip with a panoramic train ride up to a Swiss Glacier, stop for a cheese-fondue, continue with kayaking on a turquoise pristine lake, and finish by fairy-tale castles & schnitzel in Germany.
Sabine
As a native French with decades of experience crafting personalized journeys, I bring an insider's perspective to every adventure. Having worked as a guide all over my country, I intimately understand France's diverse and enchanting destinations. My passion lies in curating bespoke trips, ensuring each experience is tailor-made and brimming with authentic discoveries and stays at top-notch properties.
I like seeking out unique hidden gems, connecting with locals to delve into their crafts, and strolling through cities at sunrise. Now rooted in a charming village near the Mediterranean, I continue to infuse my expertise into unique itineraries within cities and village.
Jane
Embarking on a lifelong journey of wanderlust, my love for travel was ignited during my formative years. My childhood holidays in the United Kingdom were spent exploring new destinations with my family. Beachcombing for treasure and wandering through woodlands spotting wildlife were all part of the fun. Those journeys afforded me the privilege of discovering numerous splendid destinations.
Specializing in crafting bespoke travel experiences, my intimate knowledge of the UK lends itself to designing unforgettable holidays. I take pride in curating unique, one-of-a-kind itineraries within cities, towns, and villages, ensuring each adventure is a unique and personalized experience.
Simon
With extensive experience in eco-tourism and cultural adventures, I specialize in curating bespoke travel itineraries in France and Italy. My professional journey includes developing eco-tourism loops in Laos' Mekong Valley, organizing trekking expeditions along the Ho Chi Minh Trail, and promoting an 18th-century castle in Gondar, Ethiopia. While these international experiences have enriched my expertise, my true passion lies in crafting unique tours in my homeland, France.
I aim to help travelers discover our region's essence and connect with France's true spirit!
Stephen
Born and raised in New Zealand, I spent some time travelling all over the planet before moving to France 15 years ago, and I’ve made Lyon my home. I graduated with a Master’s degree as an Urbanist, but I have worked for over 7 years in the luxury travel industry. I think taking people out of their comfort zones is a part of my brief.
Our tour operator is based in France, and the UK, so we can work in both countries and allow folks to discover le vrai France and have an authentic British Isles experience. Our background has been creating walking holidays and sharing the joy of eating half-board meals at mountain huts, or chic guesthouses!
