Fall is the ideal time to visit France: the excitement of Paris Fashion Week, cool temperatures that are ideal for sightseeing and educational travel in the spirit of back-to-school season.
Le Fouquet’s is the last luxury hotel in Paris to still be owned by a French family. In January 2022, Le Fouquet’s launched The Parisian Gossip Package. Led by tour guides from Potins de Paris, the "Marquise des Potins" and the "Comtesse des Commères" offer historical anecdotes and lesser known fun facts while walking the cobblestone streets of Paris in period costumes. Le Fouquet’s’ connecting rooms, including the Paris Suite and Arc De Triomphe Signature Suite, elevate family travel with design to mirror a French apartment – offering an authentic living experience with a personal kitchen and views of L’Arc De Triomphe.
After exploring Paris through and through, a quick flight under two hours will bring travelers to Le Majestic in Cannes, where The Studio by Petit VIP elevates the kids club experience for guests between ages 4-12 at the star-studded location that is the center of Cannes Film Festival each spring. Educational and hands-on activities including a beginners sculpture workshop, a cake baking class, a photoshoot on the steps of the Palais des Festivals, and partaking in the production of a short film at Le Studio by VIP. Children have the opportunity to design their own fun in enriching educational programs while Mom and Dad steal away for a day on the Croisette.
The Exception Suites at Le Fouquet’s start at €10,000/night and the Paris Gossip Package starts at €1,245/night, while including The Studio by Petit VIP at Le Majestic starts at €599/night.
