Champagne Day Trip
Van from your Paris hotel. You pick the houses — Moët, Veuve Clicquot, Mumm, or smaller family producers. Your guide tailors the day to your taste.
Private Castles & Culture Tours
Mont Saint Michel
France’s most dramatic abbey, rising from tidal flats. 300 steps to the top, medieval village below. Van from your Paris hotel, full day.
Versailles and Giverny
Two icons, one day. Versailles in the morning — Hall of Mirrors, royal apartments, gardens. Monet’s house and water lilies in the afternoon. Van from your Paris hotel.
Versailles Half-Day Trip
Just Versailles, back by lunch (or dinner). Skip the lines, see the Hall of Mirrors and royal apartments with your private driver-guide. Good option if you want more free time Paris.
Vaux le Vicomte and Fontainebleau
Two châteaux the crowds skip. Vaux le Vicomte inspired Versailles — Louis XIV was so jealous he jailed the owner and hired his architect. Fontainebleau housed French kings for 700 years. Van from your Paris hotel.
Private Paris Tours

Eight hours with a private driver-guide. Eiffel Tower, Arc de Triomphe, Montmartre, skip-the-line Louvre, and Notre Dame. Hotel pickup and drop-off in a Mercedes van. Up to 6 guests.
