Voyzo runs 3 private tours across 1 destination in France, covering 10 attractions — each with your own guide, driver, and vehicle, and an itinerary built around your group rather than a fixed bus schedule.
France is the largest country in Western Europe by area and shares land borders with eight countries — Belgium, Luxembourg, Germany, Switzerland, Italy, Monaco, Spain, and Andorra — giving it a geographic range from the Alps and Pyrenees to Atlantic, Mediterranean, and English Channel coastlines within a single set of borders. It has been a republic under its current constitution, the Fifth Republic, since 1958, and consistently ranks as the world's most-visited country by international tourist arrivals.
That range shows up in the regions themselves: the vineyards of Bordeaux and Burgundy, the hilltop villages of Provence and the Luberon, the cliffside sanctuaries of the Dordogne, and the beaches of the French Riviera all sit within a country where a high-speed TGV train can put you in a different climate and landscape within a few hours. Paris anchors the north with its icons — the Eiffel Tower, the Louvre, Notre-Dame — but a large share of what draws repeat visitors to France lies well outside the capital.
Every Voyzo route in France is a genuine private itinerary. Where the source itinerary was built around a self-drive rental car, Voyzo adapts it to run with your own private driver and vehicle instead, and each itinerary note discloses exactly how you move between cities, whether by TGV, a scenic countryside drive, or a mix of both.
The real stops Voyzo's own itineraries are built around — tap any attraction to learn more.

France is part of the Schengen Area. Citizens of the US, Canada, UK, Australia, and many other countries can enter visa-free for up to 90 days within any 180-day period; check current Schengen requirements before traveling.
France's eight land borders and coastline on three different bodies of water mean the climate and landscape shift significantly by region — the Mediterranean south is dry and warm in summer, while the north stays temperate with rain year-round. Most trips focus on one or two regions rather than trying to cover the whole country.
France uses the euro. A service charge is included by law in restaurant bills, so tipping isn't obligatory, though rounding up or leaving a few extra euros for good service is common.
French is the official language nationwide. English is common in Paris and major tourist areas, but less so in smaller towns and the countryside, where some basic French phrases are genuinely useful.
France's high-speed TGV trains connect major cities like Paris, Lyon, and Nice quickly, while the countryside — Dordogne, Burgundy, Provence's hilltop villages — is easiest to see with a private driver.
Lunch and dinner run later than in the US — restaurants often don't open for dinner until 7:30pm or later. Many museums close on Mondays, and the Louvre specifically closes on Tuesdays, worth checking before planning a day around a particular site.
