WHAT OUR GUESTS SAY

MEET YOUR GUIDES

Bonjour! We’re Patsy and Catherine — your guides to all things French.  

At Boutique Tours France, we design and personally guide 14-day tours through different regions of France, each carefully curated to showcase the country’s charm, culture, cuisine, and hidden gems. With a maximum of 8 guests per tour, our small-group adventures offer a friendly, relaxed atmosphere — perfect for solo travellers, friends, and couples alike.   

Back home in New Zealand, we bring a taste of France to you with our French Language Immersion Ateliers — inspiring 4-day experiences for max.8 participants. Open to all levels, from beginners to fluent speakers, these weekends combine language practice, cultural activities, and plenty of laughter in a supportive, engaging environment. 

Whether you’re discovering France with us or immersing yourself in the language here in NZ, we’re passionate about creating authentic, memorable experiences that let you truly live the French lifestyle.   

Our aim — discover your smile!
