Luxury Travel to France
Ah, belle France!
With all eyes on Paris for the opening ceremonies of the Summer Olympics, we’re thrilled that all of France will share in the spotlight.
Because while there’s nothing like the vibrancy and je ne sais quoi of the City of Lights, there is so much more to see in this beautiful, multi-faceted country.
Look forward to:
⛵️Sailing in Marseille⛵️ A city in Provence, known for its maritime heritage, diverse culture, and historical significance.
🤾♂️ Handball in Lille 🤾♀️ Close the Belgian border, you’ll find a vibrant cultural scene, historic architecture in this major hub for business and education.
⚽️ Football in Nice ⚽️ A classic gem on the Côte d'Azur, heralded for its beautiful Mediterranean coastline, luxury resorts, and French Riviera chic.
⚽️ Football in Lyon ⚽️ Diverse landscapes and Renaissance architecture define this city in the Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes region.
⚽️ Football in Nantes ⚽️ To the west near the Atlantic coast, with a deep history and growing reputation as an innovation hub.
⚽️ Football in Bordeaux ⚽️ A UNESCO world-heritage site arguably best known as the globally-renowned, highly-prestigious (and gorgeous!) wine region.
Of course, when it comes to crafting your France itinerary, there’s really no competition. Your #DepartureLoungeXpert has the insight and access to luxury accommodations, Michelin-starred dining, exclusive tours of iconic landmarks, and experiences from the culinary to to the pop-culture, from haute-couture to hip and happening.

Founder @wanderfulwaldon recently stayed at the gorgeous @ilbottaccio, a @relaischateaux property that skirts the sandy beaches of Forte dei Marmi, in the foothills of Tuscany’s Apuan Alps. This 16th century olive oil mill has been artfully transformed into a gourmet traveller’s paradise — something Keith attests to with an enthusiastic “Salute!”

When we stand with and for the best of ourselves, we can’t help but stand for the right of our fellow humans to be who they are and to love who they love.
❤️
And we’re reminded of that need for everyday action now more than ever. On May 17, the State Department issued a blanket global warning for US citizens traveling overseas ahead of Pride Month, advising travelers to “stay alert in locations frequented by tourists, including Pride celebrations and venues frequented by LGBTQI+ persons.”
🧡
As sobering as that is, it’s the unfortunate reality for too many — including members of our team. And that kind of fear is something we just can’t stand for.
💛
Celebrate Pride by standing with Pride. Take a moment this month to let a friend, a family member, anyone in the LGBTQI+ community know you see them, you’re with them, and you’ll stand for them. All over the world.
💚
That, friends, is something we can all celebrate.
