Frequently asked questions
Good to know
Can several sites be combined in one day?
Yes — that is precisely the appeal of a private journey. Many of our guests choose to combine, for example, Giverny and Auvers-sur-Oise for a day in the footsteps of the Impressionists — the two sites are close to one another and naturally complement each other. Others prefer to devote the entire day to Mont-Saint-Michel, whose distance invites a more leisurely visit. Tell us what tempts you, and we will compose the itinerary with you.
Are entrance tickets included?
No, you purchase your tickets directly, allowing you to choose the time slots and access options that suit you best — self-guided visit, audio guide or guided tour. Should you choose to be accompanied by one of our guides, they will take care of the full organisation of the visit, including tickets.
Can a lunch stop be arranged at a restaurant on the way?
Absolutely. On request, we can suggest addresses according to the area and your culinary preferences — from a gastronomic table to a refined bistro — and adjust the schedule accordingly.
Do you offer a guide to accompany the journey?
Yes. We work with a network of qualified lecturer-guides speaking French, English, Spanish and Japanese. The guide accompanies your group throughout the itinerary, manages ticket reservations and adapts the narrative to your interests — art history, architecture or French history. Please mention this when booking.
Is the journey suitable for young children?
Yes. Please specify the children's ages when booking so that we can provide the required child seats and adapt the pace of the day.
