France Tourisme is the result of 20 years of creativity and dynamism at the service of one simple idea; the desire to create a promising brand recognized in the development of French tourism, driven by our creator, Ghislain de Richecour.
Formed and educated at ESSEC and after a brilliant career in banking and finance, at just only 30 years old, Ghislain de Richecour decides to embark on the development of tourism and excursions made in France. He wishes to share with all his passion for our French heritage and our culture but offering the best conditions of travel and the best prices.
FRANCE TOURISME is established during a hot month of June in 1999, and becomes in just a few years the reference mark on the Parisian and French tourism market. 20 years later, our group has grown to a rich and multilingual team of high-performing professionals and has an extensive range of services and the most competitive prices. France Tourisme is today a recognized know-how and french savoir-faire.
France Tourisme is a major player in French tourism, through two complementary activities:

We feel we have the responsibility to help and support our French heritage. France Tourisme has long been involved as a sponsor to the Château de Versailles. Choosing to be a sponsor is not only joining the coalition of passionates who invest in this great common project that is Versailles, but also to forge a lasting link with this exceptional domain and share the pride of contributing to preserve it.
France Tourisme undertakes humanitarian work with Espérance Banlieues. We have chosen to act in the field of education by supporting the development of quality schools in the heart of difficult neighborhoods and to give students the means for success, self-esteem and the desire to love their country.
As first player and historical leader of digital tourism in Paris and France (web and social networks development, e-tickets, ...)

We believe, the tourism of the future is now!
