Day 1 | Arrival in Paris — A Soft Spring Welcome

Your journey begins to blossom in the heart of the French capital, as Paris welcomes you to the soft rhythms of the new season. Upon arriving, why not check into Le Walt, a boutique retreat where artistic touches and intimate comforts perfectly complement the poetic air that fills the city in spring. Once settled, the rest of the day is yours to begin composing your love letter to Paris. Whether it’s a café pause, a gentle stroll through nearby streets, or simply a glimpse of Parisian life, every moment here is a spring sonnet in the making.

Feel like a true Parisian and embrace the city’s artistic flair amid the warm, residential comforts of Le Walt, a 4-star boutique hotel just minutes away from the Champs-de-Mars, the Invalides Esplanade, and the iconic Eiffel Tower.

Day 2 | Montmartre Mornings & Pigalle Flavors

Awaken to the gentle bustle of Paris (and maybe even a chirping bird or two) as spring breathes new life into its timelessly romantic streets. Start the day by finding inspiration in Montmartre, where the spirits of artists, dreamers, and bohemian rebels linger under the graceful gaze of the Sacré-Cœur. Wander the same winding lanes as the likes of Monet, Van Gogh, and Renoir, before heading south to Pigalle and discovering French artistry through classic and contemporary Parisian flavors. Between bites and conversation, unveil a side of the city that feels effortlessly local, deliciously vibrant, and bursting with life.

Day 3 | Beyond Paris — Vineyards, Villages & Spring Charm

Today, Paris gently loosens its hold as you venture beyond the capital in search of France’s quieter springtime charms. Journey through the countryside as budding landscapes unfold outside your window, carrying you toward either Burgundy’s storied wine heartland or the quaint villages of Alsace.

In Burgundy’s Beaune, Hotel de la Poste awaits to grant you access to centuries of viticulture await steeped in tradition and refinement. Meanwhile, in Strasbourg, Cour du Corbeau rests amid half-timbered houses and canal-lined streets that glow with seasonal warmth. Whichever path you choose, the pace slows, the air softens, and France promises to reveal a more intimate side of spring.

 Ideally located on the Burgundy Wine Route and bursting with authentic French elegance,  4-star Hotel de la Poste de Beaune is the perfect gateway to Burgundy’s timeless essence.

Being one of the oldest hotels in Europe, every stay at the 4-star Cour du Corbeau comes with an unparalleled historical experience, offering a genuine window into Strasbourg’s past and an unforgettable glimpse of its soul in the present.

Day 4 | Wine Selection - Choose Your Springtime Adventure

Few things pave the way to France’s heart as expressively and exquisitely as its wines; and today, you get to choose your path to it.  If in Burgundy, follow the legendary Grands Crus Route and taste exceptional wines at family-run domaines as their vineyards awaken to a new season. Should you find yourself in Alsace, trace the region’s own scenic wine trail (Route des Vins d’Alsace), where flowering villages and rolling hills frame crisp, aromatic pours unique to its lands. Led by fragrant notes and rich varieties, savor some of the world’s finest viticultural bouquets as they bloom along with the flowers of spring.

Day 5 | Returning to Paris — Reflections on the Seine

No one can keep those Parisian charms at bay for long. Having toasted the coming of spring amid France’s vineyards, head back toward the beckoning glow of its capital, where it awaits with one last flourish. Once there, ease into a private Seine cruise that reveals the city from a new, moving (quite literally) perspective. Watch Paris unfurl along the water as you drift past elegant bridges, grand façades, and sunlit embankments, glass in hand and heart full of love for this iconic city. It’s a graceful finale that lets France’s springtime magic linger just a little longer.

Day 6 | Au Revoir, Paris — Until the Next Bloom

As your springtime reverie draws to a close, enjoy a final morning wrapped in Parisian chic. Perhaps it’s a last café crème, a quiet walk beneath budding trees, or simply watching the city wake once more outside your window. With suitcases packed, a private transfer will escort you to Paris Charles de Gaulle airport, the lingering scent of blossoms and vineyards forever fresh in your memory; because once you’ve seen France in full bloom, it’s impossible to forget it.
