The flights and transfers worked seamlessly, our overwater bungalow was perfectly positioned and staying on Matira Point was like being in paradise!

'Entire' organised our Swiss hotels (near train stations), mountain excursions and most trains (half pass) impeccably; all that remained was for us to enjoy ourselves - which we certainly did! Pat Tod
We recently had a great family of 6 adventure to the West coast of Canada. Thankyou to Sam from the Entire Travel team who took all the planning hassles away from us. Everything was planned to perfection and ran to clockwork. Using the Trip Plan App made things so much easier for us with all booking info at our fingertips. It’s an adventure we will talk about for years to come.
Helpful Information
France is an all-year round destination. Depending on where you plan to go and what you want to see the weather may not be as important as the time of the year you travel. Consider avoiding the French summer holidays, from mid-July to mid-August and Easter as more crowded and expensive.
High Season (Jul & Aug)
- More people, longer queues (especially August).
- Christmas, New Year and Easter equally busy.
- Bastille Day Celebrations - 14th July
Shoulder (Apr–Jun & Sep)
- Pleasant weather, less crowded
- Festivals and events galore
Low Season (Oct–Mar)
- Great time to travel if you want to experience the French Christmas markets (Nov-Dec)
