Flexible – Durations can be modified to meet a client's needs, hotels are available for many budgets, and there is no minimum participation, eliminating the threat of cancellation by the operator.
Affordable – Prices are amazing by comparison to the group guided option, yet worth a bit more than trying to do it yourself.
Supported – Discover France self-guided programs also provide baggage transfers, emergency support, orientations, transfers, and add on services. These support services are beneficial because they are founded on expert knowledge of the region, and are therefore a very reliable source for finding and offering unique properties, routes, and visits.
