VIP & Luxury · PRIVATE LUXURY TOURS IN FRANCE
The good private luxury tours in France fill up weeks ahead and the great ones go first. Below: the 8 to book early, what each includes and how they differ.
Review of a private Paris tour with Eiffel Tower lunch, Seine cruise, Louvre tickets, guide service, timing, value, and practical tips.
“Guides Helen and Effe were good knowledgeable and very personable. The food and service in the Restaurant was world class and surprising for a tourist location”
Review of a private Loire Valley day trip from Paris to Chambord, Chenonceau, and Amboise, with transport, tickets, and an expert guide.
“Wonderful itinerary and overall great experience. Our driver was so nice, the vehicle was roomy, the destinations were amazing, and the knowledge our guide had was the perfect amount of info for the duration we had at each castle. Not too much or too in depth, but plenty of facts and things to point out. I highly recommend this tour if you want to experience the Loire Valley in a day without a tour bus and 50 other people. This was perfect.”
Review of Paris’s private Eiffel Tower photoshoot, with meeting details, photo stops, price value, posing tips, weather policy, and booking advice.
“We met for photos two days prior to Bastille Day. Many photo spots were blocked off and not accessible for preparation for the holiday events. Even so, our photographer knew where to go with the limitations and knew how to make the most of them! He was on time, kind, and immediately made us comfortable with taking pictures with him. Just the photos that he showed us on his camera made me say, Wow! He captured moments with the Eiffel Tower as our backdrop on a beautiful cloudless day in Paris! It will be pictures that will last a lifetime. I'm so glad we decided to do this!”
Review of a private Riviera boat tour from Nice to Monaco, with custom routes, swimming stops, snacks, drinks, and sunset options.
“Our boat trip with Neil was the highlight of our trip. Neil took us for and evening cruise along the coast and explained the history of many of the buildings along the way. We anchored for a while and enjoyed snorkeling. Neil had some wine and snacks for us which was greatly appreciated. The best part of the entire trip was the time we spent chatting with Neil. We hope that someday we will have an opportunity to meet up with Neil again.”
Review of Burgundy’s private wine tour, with Grand Cru villages, two tastings, vineyard walks, lunch options, guides, and practical value.
“We had a wonderful day. Maxi arrived at the hotel right on time to pick us up. In the morning, we visited a private winery (not open to the public), and everything was amazing. We tasted three white wines and four red wines. For lunch, we went to a Michelin restaurant — it was very affordable! In the afternoon, we strolled along the famous Champs-Élysées and later went to take photos at Romanée-Conti. We then headed to the last winery, where we visited the winemaking facilities and tasted two Premier Cru and two Grand Cru wines! Maxi is extremely knowledgeable — he knows everything about wine and the Burgundy region!”
Review of Paris private airport transfers for groups up to seven, with flight tracking, family extras, WhatsApp support, and free cancellation.
“Great service. Once time and very friendly. Took myself and my daughter from Disneys Newport Bay to CDG. Sent us a text the evening before to confirm booking.”
Review of a private Paris photo tour covering Eiffel Tower views, the Louvre Pyramid, Palais-Royal, and scenic stops with photographer Farid.
“His is very friendly I love the picture I can wait to go back my experience was amazing his has patience the picture in time beautiful”
See Bordeaux’s grand squares, Roman ruins, riverfront, and narrow streets in a private Citroën DS with guide Guillaume.
“The whole experience was one of sheer delight. As a 75 year old travel veteran I have been around. A combination of a beautiful classic car, a fantastic host, nice weather, and enchanting surroundings blended together to deliver 2 hours of pure joy. The Big Bus cannot negotiate all the narrow streets the Citroën can manage to reach the unique sites. Coupled with Guillaume's detailed knowledge and being very nimble on his feet is what separates this trip from any other option. Guillaume kills all competition. We drank champagne just after 11am at the Place de la Bourse after collapsing the roof. An experience beyond my darling wife's imagination who…”
