PARIS
The city of Paris offers unrivalled facilties for very large groups, conferences and incentives There is no form of travel that the city cannot and does not handle. Large modern conference hotels vie with elegant palaces owned by the world’s finest chains and small boutique hotels for the discerning traveller!

Incentives enjoy the downtown hotels from where they can participate in a large range of specially designed excursions whilst also enjoying the ‘easy to get around feeling that the city offers’!

Chateaux de la Loire :

A 55 minute ride by TGV train to the heart of France where the Loire Chateaux built by the Kings and their courtiers as country homes in the Middle Ages show us the beauty of the architecture, the gardens and the elegant life! An enthronement at the wine town of Chinon is one of the many group activities that can be arranged in this area or overflying the region by Montgolfière.

The chateaux hotels are ideally organised for incentive groups and small meetings and conferences.

Champagne
­A name that bubbles in everyone’s mind! Home of the world renowned beverage Champagne is also an important part of European history. The French kings were crowned in the magnificent gothic cathedral and it was at Reims that Eisenhower received the signature of the retreating German occupation forces in 1944.

An excellent rendez vous for groups and seminars in the many Champagne cellars in which we can organise dinners and enthronement ceremonies.

Normandy :
Deauville is the gateway to Normandy! With its fine beaches and world class hotels the town lends itself to exploring the other Normandy ­ the fishing villages such as Honfleur or the beachheads where the heroic allied forces landed in June 1944 to liberate France.

Burgundy ­
Home of wine where a simple evocation of the village names reads like the wine list of some fine restaurant! The beautiful towns of Dijon and Beaune rivalise for the title of the most culturally interesting ­ an event in Burgundy means fine food, fine wine!

Alsace Lorraine ­
The most eastern provinces of France stretch from the flat plains of Champagne to the picturesque Vosges mountains and the Rhine river. Fantastic scenery, quaint villages, a fine artistic heritage lead to the capital Strasbourg, home of the European Parlement. A geographic situation drew the area into a war that lasted from 1870 until 1945 but is now proud to be the cradle of the modern European community. The city can welcome large groups, modern conference centre close to the Parlement, fine city centre restaurants where the local specialties can be savoured including fine Riesling wines, foie gras and the local brewed beers.

Visits can be arranged to the beer distillers or to the wine growers ­ these together with the Eaux de Vie manufacturers cohabitate along the wine road and the surrounding countryside.

Bordeaux ­ :
France’s largest winegrowing area stretching from the Medoc to the Sauterne via Margaux and St Emilion! The landscape is dotted with elegant chateaux hotels, fine restaurants and vineyards.

An ideal setting for smaller conferences where wine tasting or even healing by bathing in wine can be part of the curriculum
