About the operator
Don’t take it from us – here’s what people have to say about this operator:
- megsharee040 contributionsChristmas Market Tour- MOST AMAZING EXPERIENCE 10/10 RECOMMENDI’ll start with the fact that I am a travel advisor, who books trips to France frequently, and this DMC knocked it out of the park! I came to Clement, and his Finding France team, with a very last minute Christmas Market tour request, which they graciously accepted when others said it was too close to departure date. Fining France proceeded to blow it out of the water with an amazing initial itinerary, great communication, and easy payments. My clients raved about their trip daily and even when they got home, they are still talking about the amazing and memorable trip that Clement provided for us. I can’t wait to plan more trips to France, just so I can use them! Don’t wait a second more, book through them!! 10/10Written January 16, 2025
- T3730JCmelissab0 contributionsSpecial Normandy ExperienceWhat a memorable and unique day! We were able to experience DDay history and locations together as a family, Louis-Marie was an excellent, knowledgeable and kind guide who made every stop special. The experience was flawless - no waiting anywhere. Communication from the company was excellent. We will work with them again for our next trip.Written December 30, 2024
- T1364KVpaulap0 contributionsFantastic trip to the Champaign region!Gilles was an amazing tour guide! Such a fun day and totally worth the trip from Paris. The large champagne house was nice and very informative, however, the local Champagne house, Pierre Morlet was the best! We loved Erik and the Pinot Noir champagne was phenomenal.Written December 29, 2024
- A1924GSwesleyt0 contributionsChampagne Private TourAmazing tour! Eric did a great job setting up the tours and lunch for a group of 10+. We had a big and luxury bus to accommodate our group which was great.Written December 29, 2024
- 708katinas0 contributionsExceptional once in a lifetime tour!Gilles took our large group of 22 to Pommery for a wonderful tour of a large scale Champagne distributor, then we went to Averney to a smaller Champagne distributor- Pierre Morlet. Pommery was wonderful but Morlet was an exceptional once in a lifetime experience. We met with Eric Morlet, who opened 2 champagne bottles “the old way” to remove the yeast in his cellar. Then we tasted multiple champagnes in his warehouse! I would enthusiastically recommend Gilles for private excursions while traveling! Merci beaucoupWritten December 29, 2024
- abrook330 contributionsBook this experience immediately!The experience was absolutely amazing! Going to major champagne house to a local was a treat. I preferred the local house. Gilles was the best guide for the day! He is knowledgable, personal, and friendly!! Eric at Pierre Morlet was the greatest experience. 10/10 experience!Written December 29, 2024
- J6559VGalanl0 contributionsLove Finding FranceA 5 Star Experience. BACKGROUND. A week before we toured the Loire Valley with FINDING FRANCE/Clement Decre, Brenda and I learned that Air France had a nonstop flight from Phoenix to Paris. So we grabbed two tickets for the next day (November 30), landed in Paris (December 1) and took the train to Strasbourg (Capitale de Noel) for the Christmas Markets for a few days (if you find yourself in France in December, Strasbourg is a must visit); then we returned to Paris. FINDING FRANCE. Brenda and I have been to Paris so many times over the years that we were stymied what to do next as we had three days before our flight home. In conversation with the concierge at our hotel I asked about a private tour to the Loire Valley, and he recommended FINDING FRANCE -- which was the highlight of our brief time in France. Everything was perfect from the cleanliest of the limousine to the knowledge/professionalism of Clement as he guided us through the Chateau du Clos Luce, the Leonardo Di Vinci Park and Museum, the Chateau du Chenonceau and the Loire Valley. (As an aside, Clement showed us a small restaurant in Amboise, no tourists just locals, where we had the best ever ham and cheese sandwich!) THE PROOF IS IN THE PUDDING. This June 2025, after high school graduation and before our granddaughter starts college, we will be returning to France -- and we will be booking a tour with FINDING FRANCE. Brenda and I cannot think of better way to introduce our granddaughter to France than a tour with FINDING FRANCE. As I earlier said, it is a "5 Star Experience."Written December 16, 2024
- jamessI1568CP0 contributionsMoving memories of D-DayNormandy and the D-Day beaches were a bucket list thing for me. So we reserved a private tour with Gilles. It was absolutely fantastic and everything I could hope for. Gilles was an absolutely fantastic guide, very knowledgeable and entertaining. He has a wonderful approach to educating you with early France and Paris history leading up to the events on June 6, 1944. We saw just the right amount of places for a long one day trip from Paris. I would highly recommend this tour, and don’t be surprised if you shed some tears.Written December 13, 2024

Her deep knowledge of the city, its history, and hidden gems brought every stop to life. She was personable, attentive to our interests, and went above and beyond to make the experience special. Highly recommend her for anyone looking to explore Paris!Written December 3, 2024

- Z3744LJcynthiam0 contributionsDMC experience in ParisI recently planned an event in Paris, and as the needs continued to grow, I searched for destination management companies (DMC) and found Finding France. I knew we were in good hands from my first call with Clement. I also confirmed Finding France’s reputation with the 5-star hotel I booked, where Clement came highly recommended. Clement managed individualized airport transfers across three Paris airports and two train stations. He arranged private rooms at restaurants with affordable rates, entertainment options, and large shuttles for our group, seamlessly accommodating last-minute changes and additions. The highlight was a stellar experience at the Musée d’Orsay with no wait. The language assistance Clement provided was invaluable, as none of our team spoke French. If you need a DMC in France, Finding France should be your top choice.Written November 5, 2024
- Maps5878410 contributionsBest Day Trip to the Loire Valley!!!Clement and Gilles made our day trip to the Loire Valley one of the most memorable and special days! We were a group of 10 people ranging from 4 to 75 years old and they catered to all of our needs perfectly! They were both so knowledgeable. Every detail was perfection! I could not recommend them enough. I hope to be back for more tours in the near future!!Written October 28, 2024

Working with Finding France DMC was an incredible experience from start to finish. The team is not only very professional, but also warm and always available.
From the planning stage, everything is fluid: every detail is taken into account, the answers are quick, and we feel a real expertise behind each proposal.
On the ground, it’s even better: everything is perfectly orchestrated, the chosen providers are of high quality, and the follow-up is impeccable.
We really feel like we can rely on them 100%, and that makes all the difference. Thank you to the whole team for this exceptional work, you are real enthusiasts, and it is felt!

There will be nothing you do in Paris that will compare to having your very own personal tour guide, especially if his name is Clément! From his time of arrival Clément was an amazing person to tour with, to share memories with and talk stories. He made us feel as if he were our dear friend and made sure we were taken care of. I love his enthusiasm and live for the city of Paris. I truly believe every time we visit Paris, we will be giving Clément a call to take us on another tour! Thank you so much for making our anniversary special!

We booked a half day private tour and Clement was both our driver and tour guide. He is very knowledgeable about the history of Paris and Versailles. Any questions I asked, he was quick to share the history and even had stories.
It was supposedly a 40 mins drive from our hotel in Paris to Versailles but with Clement, it honestly, seems quicker as he holds a conversation well. It was like hanging out with a friend! I highly recommend a tour with Clement.

Amazing day with Clement and Taisir. We were a bit late but I was able to see the palace, and was less crowded in the evening and also the gardens. Pick up and drop off was good and both driver and tour guide were very knowledgeable and pleasant. Thanks

Our guided tour of the Palace was an incredible walk through history made alive by our guide Vincent. His knowledge and humour made the visit special and interesting to all of us including our teenagers. We were taken care of incredibly well and had a wonderful visit to this historic landmark.
