Ideas for family getaways to discover France

When going on vacation, we love to be with family and have fun together. Young and old gather for sports, cultural activities, or simply to relax. Here is a selection of family getaway ideas for an unforgettable stay with your loved ones.

Cultural stay in a theme park

In France, there is no shortage of theme parks. From Vulcania in Auvergne, where you can learn everything about volcanoes, to Puy du Fou in Vendée, where the entire history of France is staged, and the Palace of Versailles, which showcases the past of the French kings, families have plenty of options to combine cultural stay and entertainment. This combination allows children to enjoy the joys of discovery in a playful way.

Active stay in the mountains

In summer, a breath of fresh air is an excellent idea for a family getaway. And indeed, it’s in the mountains where you can get the most oxygen. Whether it’s during hikes to discover the local fauna and flora or near natural lakes where children can swim and do water sports, a stay in the mountains is a great way to recharge.

Relaxing stay by the sea

Family getaways to the beach are sure to delight everyone. Mom can sunbathe on a deckchair while the children build sandcastles or learn to sail with dad. Water sports, excursions to explore the region, or just lounging around, the choices are numerous, and the rejuvenation is complete. After a vacation by the sea, you will have soaked up the sun, relaxation, and good food. Relaxed, the children will be ready to face the new school year.
