French Wine Trip Planning

Your trip to French wine country, designed by someone who lives it.

Private wine days and custom itineraries across France.

Planning a good trip here comes down to fluency more than research: the language, the relationships, and the feel for how the country actually works. That comes from living it, and it shapes every trip I design.

HOW IT WORKS

We start with a conversation.

A 60-minute consultation where I learn what you’re drawn to, how you like to travel, and what kind of experience would feel right. I listen more than I talk.

I design your trip.

A detailed, day-by-day plan built around your group. Producer visits, restaurants, timing, routes, cultural stops. Everything considered, nothing left to chance.

You travel with confidence.

Whether I’m guiding you in person or you’re following the itinerary independently, you’ll have everything you need. Contacts, reservations, contingency plans, and me on the other end of the phone.

SERVICES

CONSULTATION

€99 · 60 minutes

Expert guidance on your trip. You receive tailored recommendations and a written summary. The fee applies toward any service you book.

CUSTOM ITINERARY

From €450/day · 2-day minimum

A detailed plan with producer contacts, driving routes, restaurant picks, and cultural notes. I design it; you explore independently.

FULL SERVICE DESIGN

From €750/day

Everything designed, booked, and coordinated. Producer appointments, restaurants, driver, and ongoing trip support. You show up and the trip runs.

Most clients choose full-service. But every trip starts the same way: a conversation.

Based in Lyon, between Burgundy, Beaujolais, and the Northern Rhône. Nicolas and I guide in person across our home regions, and in the other regions on request (pricing differs, and is listed on the tours page). Beyond that, I design itineraries for the rest of France.

Tell us about your trip.

No commitment, no pressure. Just enough for us to start a conversation.

I moved to France in 2017. First Paris, then Burgundy, now Lyon. My husband Nicolas and I have built a life around wine, and we’ve turned that into something we can share. Every trip we design is personal because this place is personal to us.
