Megan is the most amazing tour guide and provided a fabulous itinerary for our Mother/Daughter trip to France. She arranged farmer's market strolls and lunches along the river. We drove to an isolated bar in the mountains with live French music. We ate at top notch restaurants, saw many quaint villages, toured historic churches and buildings, shopped homemade French goods and enjoyed having her as a private driver who had the ability to translate. This trip was one of my favorites and I can't wait to come back and enjoy all that France has to offer. Megan even provided a book for us to read before going on our daily outings. For anyone traveling to France looking for a unique and friendly tour guide, I highly recommend Megan and her company Petit Detour.

Our France trip could not have taken us to the quaint, beautiful villages and sites without Megan. Megan listened to our needs and planned everything (lodging, restaurant suggestions and sightseeing) accordingly. The trip felt like we did exactly what we liked and wanted with great ease due to Megan's diligence. This made our journey feel personal. We highly recommend Megan's personalized/customized services to anyone wanting to get a taste of France off the beaten path.

I recently had the pleasure of hiring Megan from Petit Détour for a guided exploration of Saint-Antonin-Noble-Val and the surrounding area. I was looking for more than just a standard history tour, and Megan delivered an experience that was both intellectually stimulating and visually stunning. Beyond the history, her dinner recommendations were absolute standouts—some of the best meals I’ve had in France. Plus, her dog Diego is the sweetest companion you could ask for on a trek. If you want a guide who truly understands the soul of these medieval villages, Megan is the one to call.

Petit Detour organized the most incredible Mother/Daughter trip for us! Megan, our guide and driver, showed us around Tarn in the Occitanie region of France. We visited countless ancient villages, each oozing with its own unique history and rich character. We explored beautiful French markets, ate delicious meals, drank wonderful local wines, and met many locals. The access and insight Megan provided made for a very exclusive, VIP type of experience. We would never have discovered even 10% of what we experienced if we'd tried to plan the trip on our own! She offered the perfect balance of plans with flexibility. If we wanted to relax in a town square with a coffee and people-watch a little longer, then that's what we did. If we wanted to hike up to a vantage point with 360-degree views of the valley, she was game. We shopped at a market for provisions and had a picnic in the shadow of an ancient ruin during a glorious spring day. We went shopping and visited medieval churches. I could go on and on. I'll be booking another trip with Petit Detour next year!

Our first trip to France was one of the best trips we've ever taken together!! It's all thanks to Megan - with her incredible local expertise, she led us on the most memorable and special visits to the countryside and beaches of France that we would not have been able to access on our own, even if we tried. Coming from the States, we didn't know where to begin, but Megan did. We loved the idea and flexibility of a camper van, so she booked us a super cozy, slick camper van, which we lived in for about a week. Every day was a new adventure. My favorite part of her itinerary was how thoughtful she considered what days the farmers' markets would be open in each town on our route so we would always have access to the local food markets - brilliant!!! We felt like we really soaked up the slow, French country life. She listened to our needs and met them all - more than we ever expected. I don't think I would go back to France again without consulting with Megan. I wish she could plan all of our trips!

I wanted to gift myself a little birthday trip, but only had four days to spend in France. With Megan’s help, I fit everything I could’ve possibly wanted into that brief jaunt. I got lively culture, local history, incredible cuisine, and one thing I didn’t expect — the beaches! Who knew that some of the most beautiful water I’d ever floated in would be in the Northern part of France? I’ll tell you who knew...Megan. It was a long weekend to remember, every day feeling perfectly full but never rushed, and left me longing to get back for another personally curated French vacation.

When we were planning our trip to France, Megan was brimming with ideas for things for us to do. From a meandering bike tour to some of her favorite hidden spots to introducing us to the marvelous “Les Machines de l'île,” to the beautiful Atlantic beaches in the vicinity - everyday felt like a new adventure.

Megan’s recommendations were spot-on and thoughtful. I will never forget the meal at a fantastic Michelin-rated restaurant, where we dined in a beautiful outdoor garden in the company of the restaurant’s resident crowned crane!

All in all, we came away from the trip feeling like we’d gotten a hearty taste of the very best Nantes has to offer. We’re planning our next trip back and we’ll certainly be contacting Megan to help us plan our next set of adventures.

My experience with Petit Detour was nothing short of AMAZING! I wanted a trip to France to include a bit of a city action and country charm. With my itinerary I caught both in 5 days which felt complete and easy to manage.
I visited yummy local spots to eat, checked out food markets and got a concert in, too. With the right tips, I felt I ate the best food, including amazing crepes and oysters!

All and all, the entire trip was smooth and I got to see and do everything I wanted. I couldn't be happier! Another trip will be in the future, for sure.!

Megan provided us with the most amazing week in France! Including the perfect picnic spot next a slow moving river under a CASTLE, an excursion to a tiny island with no cars where we picked fresh oysters and stayed in a picturesque cottage by the sea, a bike ride through the amazing city of Nantes, great live music spots, and over and over again tips to find UNBELIEVABLE food. If you want to get out of the tourist traps look no further—Megan has the INSIDE SCOOP. I cannot recommend her highly enough! We can’t wait to go back.
