About
us

Yes, we do. As of late September 2023, due to high demand, approximately half of our partner hotels are fully booked. However, the remaining half still has a few rooms available. We also have two off-market Airbnb listings available. Please feel free to contact us here, and we will respond promptly.

While bed bugs can be a concern in some places, you can rest assured that none of our clients have reported any bed bug infestations so far. We conduct regular checks with our partner hotels before each check-in to ensure that they have not been affected by bed bugs. To date (9th of October, 2023), we haven’t received any positive reports of bed bug infestations in our partner hotels.

You can get in touch with us through our inquiry form or via email at bonjour@thefrenchroute.com, or via WhatsApp or phone call – +33 6 07 32 20 77. Once we have a few essential details about your trip (number of people, travel dates, etc.), we will send you a proposed itinerary. We’ll then iterate via phone call or email till you are satisfied with your personalized itinerary.

We will send you a confirmation of your itinerary. Within the month before your travel dates, you will receive from us your detailed itinerary and recommendations for your trip such as the best bakery close to your hotel or our preferred restaurants for a lunch between two activities. We can also mail you a paper version if you wish so.

All of our itineraries are completely customized from scratch. Those on our website are there to provide inspiration, and to give you a sense of what we can arrange for you. After our initial phone conversation or email exchange, we will start tailoring an itinerary around your request.

All our trips are private, meaning that you will not travel along with other people who have booked with us. However, in case you want to lower your costs, and only for some specific activities within your trip – for instance, a wine tasting – we can propose a group activity on demand.

Once you’re happy with our proposal, we will request you to pay a 30% deposit. The final payment will have to be made within 2 months before your arrival date in France. You can pay us either through bank transfer or virtual credit card. Our payment policy is detailed here.

We don’t. However, we often have friends and people in our network who are looking to resell / giveaway their tickets as they can’t make it to a concert, sports event, etc. Feel free to reach out to us to find out – you never know.

In addition to organizing personalized trips for individuals, The French Route also plans trips and retreats for companies. For instance, we can ask a qualified sommelier to organize a wine and cheese tasting in a conference room. We can also plan for a one or two-day trip to the Champagne region. Possibilities are endless.

We can do it if you wish so. Should you want us to do it, let us know and do not forget to give us any airline loyalty card you may have. Regarding your travel in France, in case your itinerary includes domestic flights, we will book them and they will be included in the total price.

We do! If you’re here only for one or two days, we can plan activities such as a wine-tasting or a cooking-class. Why not learn how to cook coq au vin at with a Parisian host?

We are! Should you want to travel with children, we will ensure all accommodation and activities are child-friendly.
