France

No first-time luxury holiday to France would be complete without a trip to Paris. Known as the ‘City of Lights’, this cosmopolitan capital is renowned for its scenic cityscapes, exclusive boutiques, artistic hotspots and fantastic food - there truly is something for everyone to enjoy. Or, for an indulgent luxury France holiday, we recommend a trip to the Cote D’Azur where you can soak up the sun and sip cocktails on the glamorous French Riviera. 

For those looking for a France holiday that showcases this country’s rich history and culture, a trip to the Loire Valley is ideal. Here you can explore storybook villages and charming chateaux and finish your day with wine tasting at one of the region's many vineyards. Alongside wine, France is also known for its skiing, and a visit to Alpine hotspots like Chamonix guarantees soft powder and excellent conditions. 

So, whether you’re planning an adventure-filled trip in the Alps or an intimate South of France holiday, get ready to experience the best of France the Scott Dunn way.

FAQs about our luxury France holidays

  • When's the best time to enjoy a France holiday?

    The best time for holidays to France depends on the type of trip you want as France is truly a year-round destination.

    If you’re looking to focus on hot spots, like Paris or the wine regions, late spring and early autumn are the best times to go. This is before the summer crowds (and heat) start to creep in, but you’ll still have the advantage of long sunny days and low rainfall.

    If you’re looking for the south of France holidays, June to August is the best time to visit, with the markets in full swing and the coast alive with sunbathers, water sports, and glamorous dining. Prefer the slopes? Then from December to April, head to the French Alps for some of the best skiing in Europe.

    Learn more about the best time to visit.

  • Are France holidays good for families?

    Holidays to France are an excellent choice for family trips, with so many types of holidays on offer.

    For adventure, head during the ski season for active days and cosy nights sitting by the chalet fire. Or if you prefer the outdoors during summer, the mountains become an incredible sight, bursting with wildflowers, crisp blue skies, and activities like rope courses, rafting and paragliding.

    If you’re looking to slow down, northern France and South of France holidays show a pared-back pace of life – with the north offering a glimpse into the past and quiet reflection and the south beckoning you to wander aimlessly through its charming villages and lavender fields.

  • Are France holidays suitable for couples?

    France holidays are an excellent choice for couples. Along with having a plethora of things on offer, France is also conveniently located to the UK, with an easy, flexible short-haul flight that can fit working adults' busy schedules.

    Lounge in glamour in the Cote D’Azur during the summer, have a quick romantic getaway in Paris for a bank holiday weekend and dine at some of the most delectable restaurants available.

    Get in touch with our travel specialists and they’ll create a couples holiday to France that’s perfect for you.

  • Can I go on a beach holiday to France?

    Travellers around the world come to France for their world-class beach holidays.

    The French Riviera is the most popular area, home to stunning villages, international film festivals, a vibrant culture and over 300 days of sun a year. Explore local markets, stay in upscale boutique hotels and visit iconic cities like Cannes, Nice and Antibes.

    There are also plenty of activities to take part in, like walking the coastal paths, ocean watersports and exploring Roman ruins.

  • Can I go on a ski holiday to France?

    Absolutely! Ski holidays in France are where we started as a company and a type of holiday we pride ourselves on creating.

    From our Explorer’s kids clubs that continue to bring families back to Val d’Isere year after year, to the incredible ski that reliably covers the slopes, it’s a place that almost guarantees an incredible trip.

    There is also accommodation for everyone. From cosy villages to high-altitude resorts, all levels of skiers will find the perfect place for them.

  • How can I travel to/from France?

    When it comes to travelling to France, we recommend flying for those who want to take advantage of the quick and frequent flight times, but for those who want a slower travel experience, the Eurostar is an excellent way to travel to France.

    Once you’re there, take advantage of our private transfers, the reliable and efficient national rail system, or a popular option for some of our guests who have travelled to France before is to self-drive and road trip, especially on a South of France holiday.

    Whichever you choose, we’ll handle all the logistics so you just have to arrive and enjoy.
