How do you get a tailor-made France trip planned?
You brief a specialist once, they design the itinerary around you, and they coordinate the eligible ground bookings under your name. That is what Chic Trip does from Paris: a tailor-made France program, Paris plus Provence, the Loire Valley or wherever your trip goes, for a flat planning fee from $623. Travelers book international flights directly with route and timing guidance. Official tickets and restaurant tables are at face price; hotels are at public rates; tours and transfers are quoted as package prices upfront.
What tailor-made actually means here
No template. We start from your dates, pace and tastes, design the trip day by day, then coordinate the bookings. Planning fees start at $623 for up to four travelers, plus $100 per additional person. Restaurant reservations and official tickets are at face price. Tours, transfers and experiences use clear package prices quoted upfront. Hotels stay at public rates, and any supplier commission never increases that public rate.
Why flat fee beats the classic bespoke agency
Compare the written scope, not just the headline price. An itinerary-only service leaves reservations to you; a full-service planner also coordinates the agreed bookings and support while you travel. Chic Trip separates the planning fee from hotels, meals, tickets, tours and transport. Compare room types, cancellation terms, private or group guides and inclusions before deciding which quote offers better value. See our France trip planning service.
France without Paris: Provence, the Riviera or wine country
Paris is not compulsory. A Provence trip can focus on countryside villages and markets; a Riviera stay needs a base chosen for coastal transport and evenings. A Bordeaux or Burgundy wine brief starts with the wines you enjoy and how many appointments make a comfortable day. Estate visits, transport and suppliers are checked for your dates. Fred's strongest personal ground outside Paris is Provence and Bordeaux; knowledge of other regions is supported by trip-specific checks, not presented as lived experience.
What happens before any reservation
Share your priorities and existing bookings, review the route and alternatives, then approve costs before supplier bookings. Your itinerary distinguishes suggestions from confirmations and highlights important places that will not fit. Current France and Italy full-service requests are for at least $10,000 in travel spend, excluding international flights; the planning fee is separate and displayed for your trip length and party size.
