As a long-time residence of France, and also fluent in French, I look forward to sharing with you this beautiful and enticing destination. My hometown was Rennes - the capital of Britany, and I grew up in Bordeaux. As a highly-trained, professional travel advisor, and a France Expert, I return at least once a year to visit family and friends and...explore - first hand - all that's new, as well as what has changed. With much knowledge about each French destination - e.g. hotels, tours, restaurants, attractions - I will share insider tips ranging from public transportation (how to use it, how not to use it), making dining reservations, dress code, tipping, etc.

Additionally, I'll encourage you to learn a few simple words in French and to have me book your hotel accommodations in a central location. Also, when we talk, I'll recommend the Catacombs in Paris, traveling to Dordogne to explore the charming villages, and on to La Rochelle and the beautiful island - Ile de Ré. And that's just the beginning of all that we'll discuss and plan for you. Always - while I'm in the country, I am continuously doing site tours to hotel properties, visiting restaurants, checking out new events, attractions, museums, and most importantly...continuing to absorb the incredible culture, charm, and history that France exudes. I look forward to sharing my "insider's" familiarity. Vive la France!
