ABOUT THIS JOURNEY

For adventurous travelers and foodies seeking incredible wine, history, and a sunny disposition that only exists in the south of France.


Across ten days, a romantic journey awaits to uncover France’s most enchanting corners. Your story begins in Paris, the City of Light, as you cruise along the Seine under the stars. In the Louvre, immerse yourself in unparalleled artistic treasures, then bask in the opulent grandeur of Versailles. A train ride south brings you to Provence, and everything changes: Avignon’s medieval walls, the Roman echoes of Pont du Gard, lavender fields, ochre gorges, and the vineyards of Châteauneuf-du-Pape. A sun-drenched finale welcomes you in the French Riviera: Antibes tumbling down to the coastline, Monaco gleaming in posh luxury, and azure Mediterranean waters beckoning you to come closer. It’s time to slow down, savor, and discover a culture that has mastered the art of living well.

DAYS 1 - 3

Paris

Enter one of the world’s greatest cities and spend your first evening on the water. Champagne in hand, a four-course dinner arrives on a glass boat, drifting along the Seine as Paris sparkles before you. The next morning belongs to the Île de la Cité. A private guide leads you through centuries past with Notre Dame standing proudly and Sainte-Chapelle’s stained-glass windows set aglow in the sunlight. That evening, explore the Louvre after hours when the crowds have thinned and the collection has room to breathe. A day of extravagance sets in at Versailles as you wander through its Hall of Mirrors, royal residences, and lush gardens. Enjoy a delicious final night tasting your way through Montmartre. You’ll savor pastries, charcuterie, cheese, and wine in a neighborhood that has seduced wanderers for centuries.

DAYS 4 - 6

Provence

The train south delivers you to Avignon. Inside its medieval walls, your boutique hotel is just a short walk from dinner. A free morning follows to discover the city at leisure, before diving into history-filled adventure: Pont du Gard, a Roman marvel of engineering, then the villages of Les Baux-de-Provence and Saint-Rémy. Escape to the Provençal countryside as a guide leads you to two wine tastings at Châteauneuf-du-Pape, a castle above the vines, and a hike through the Roussillon Ochre Gorge. Conclude in the village of Gordes, where lavender fields of the Luberon Valley fill with a sea of purple every summer.

DAYS 7 - 10

French Riviera

Arrive at a hotel in old-town Antibes, just steps from the sea, with your balcony facing the water. The first moments are yours to feel the breeze and revel in the Côte d’Azur’s sunny serenity. An exciting excursion takes you east to Èze, a village perched high above the Mediterranean like something from a dream. The glamour of Monaco is next, with its world-famous Formula 1 circuit and glitzy casino. One day is for Nice, or Nice la Belle, as it is lovingly known by locals. Led by an expert chef, peruse a quintessential French market overflowing with fresh vegetables, fruits, and flowers, followed by a traditional Provençal cooking class. Wander the city by day and dine in coastal splendor by night on a rock suspended over the sea. The final day of your grand voyage is spent on a private sailboat, gently gliding through turquoise waters as you absorb the dazzling Riviera coastline.
