First-time explorers
See the classic highlights without missing the local streets, markets and small discoveries in between.
A French point of view, made for travelers around the world
Discover France through French eyes.
I’m French and now live in the United States. BonDetour is the kind of France trip I would plan for a friend: the iconic places, yes — but also the villages, markets, countryside and little detours that make France unforgettable.
Think of it as advice from your French friend.

What does a BonDetour itinerary actually look like?
See a complete example built around BonDetour’s 70/30 philosophy: Paris highlights, then Loire villages and Dordogne — with character stays, local tables and detours doing most of the work.
The sample is illustrative. Your BonDetour plan is generated from your own dates, interests, pace and must-see places.

Toujours plus loin…A personal note
Meet the traveler behind BonDetour.
Bonjour, I’m Jeremy. I’m French, and I’ve always believed the best parts of a trip are often the ones you don’t find in a guidebook.
Over the years I’ve traveled widely, following hidden trails, local recommendations and unexpected detours — from the Kimberley in Australia to quieter corners of Lagos and beyond. I’ve always been more interested in the road less traveled than ticking off the usual tourist checklist.
That curiosity is what I bring to BonDetour. I want you to enjoy France’s famous sights, of course, but also discover the villages, markets, food and wonderful little surprises between them.
Start with an itinerary made around you, or choose to have me personally review it and help shape your journey.

Let’s start
Build the trip first. Choose the plan later.
Start with your dates, arrival details, travelers, pace and budget. Then tell BonDetour what kind of France you want. Only at the end do you choose how much help you want.
My rule: fewer hotel changes, better days.
