Does Chic Trip plan trips outside Paris, across France?
Yes. Paris is home base, and Chic Trip plans and books trips across the whole of France. The founder was born and raised in Paris and has spent his life traveling his own country; his strongest personal ground outside the capital is Provence and the Bordeaux wine country. Trips regularly include the Loire Valley, Normandy and the D-Day beaches, the French Riviera, Alsace and Burgundy, connected by TGV with every ticket booked for you.
Based in Paris, planning the whole country
Living in France is the difference. Train strikes, market days, seasonal closures and the real distances between villages are daily knowledge here, not research. Chic Trip builds France trips the way locals plan their own: one good base per region rather than a nightly hotel change, markets on their actual days, and driving only where a car genuinely helps.
Where we are asked to plan most
Provence (lavender timing included, roughly June 20 to July 20 on the Valensole plateau), the Bordeaux vineyards, the Loire chateaux, Normandy from Paris for the D-Day beaches and Mont Saint-Michel, the Riviera, and Alsace in the Christmas market season. Multi-region trips are the specialty: see our France trips for Paris plus Provence, Paris plus Normandy, or a full two-week loop by train.
One fee, every price in writing
The model is identical everywhere in France: one flat planning fee priced by trip length, restaurant reservations and official tickets at face price, hotels at public rates, and tours and transfers at clear package prices quoted upfront. WhatsApp support runs for the whole trip, wherever in France you are.

Can Chic Trip book my TGV tickets between French cities?
Yes. Train legs are part of the itinerary and are booked for you, with seat choices and connection times that actually work with your luggage and pace.
Is Chic Trip only a Paris specialist?
Paris is where Chic Trip started and where the founder lives, so it remains the deepest ground. But the service covers all of France, and combined France and Italy trips as well.
Which French regions does the founder know best personally?
Beyond Paris: Provence and the Bordeaux wine country. Both are regions he returns to and plans most often.
