The playful France - tours for families
Outdoor family vacations in France to bond and conquer
A family trip to France with a difference
We are lucky to call France home. It's a country perfect for intrepid family holidays. Head out to Mont Blanc in the Alps or dip into the fairytale-like Dordogne.
With its diverse scenery and rich culture, there’s no chance for children to get bored on a France à la Carte family trip to France. Plus, with the wide range of activities we can offer, your kids will have the chance to connect with their French surroundings while encountering something entirely new.
As a family-run incoming tour operator organizing the best family holidays in France, we take pride in collaborating with businesses that share a similar story. These include a vineyard passed down through generations, innovative projects like an eco-lodge run by a young couple, and a mother-daughter textile initiative. At France à la Carte, our passion for family values is also reflected in the tailored family holidays we craft. We ensure each activity is meticulously planned to ensure that even the youngest members have the best possible experience.
Family holidays in France - up the mountain and beyond
There's so much to explore during the limited school holidays. Selecting the perfect activity for a family vacation to France can feel overwhelming. However, the French Alps are a great place to start, as they are one of the best mountain ranges in the world. Their breathtaking beauty is best experienced on a guided group mountain tour with an expert mountaineer.
Classic kids’ activities like kayaking and horse riding are a nice choice. We take it a step further by offering these adventures in exceptional destinations, such as the Riviera or across the border in Spain in the Baztan Valley. For something different, hop on an e-mountain bike and explore Corbières, a region renowned for its wine and picturesque trails.
France á la carte carefully handpicks local partners for its France family vacation packages . We ensure they are passionate, welcoming and experienced with guests, no matter the age. We want both adults and children to feel completely at ease when they travel during their holidays - ready and excited for their French adventure.
A flexible and stress-free family vacation in France
The food and hotel experience can make or break a holiday for families, especially when traveling with younger kids. We understand that some children can be picky eaters, while others need lots of active entertainment to stay engaged. This is why having plenty of choice during a trip is essential. We cater to the unpredictable and ever-changing nature of family travel with airport transfers and private transport services, right from the moment your flights arrive to France. A customized tour tailored to your children’s specific preferences means everyone can rest a little easier.
Striking the right balance between adventure and safety is vital for little thrill-seekers as they set off to explore, rafting down the Dordogne or on a guided cycling adventure in the Alps. But there’s no need to worry - they’ll be in safe hands with the experienced locals we are proud to work with. Character-building activities don’t always have to be dangerous, they can take the form of an exciting scavenger hunt, unlocking the secrets of a historic site, or gaining exclusive behind-the-scenes access at a museum. Whatever activity you choose as a family while on your holidays in France, you can count on attentive staff being nearby, ready to lend a helping hand whenever needed to ensure you have the best holiday yet.
