France Travel

France: Elegance, Inclusivity, and the Art of Living

How can we help you explore France?

• Paris: Start in Le Marais, the heart of gay Paris. Here, you’ll find cool bars, art, and a welcoming vibe. Want more? Our Gay Paris Guide lists the best spots. Pigalle is also great for music and fun nights out. For safe travel in France, use our quick tips and blend in with locals.
• But, if you are heading south? Check out our Provence guides for the best markets, lavender fields, and local festivals.
• Nice & The Riviera: Relax at gay-friendly beach clubs, or party at Queernaval, Nice’s famous gay carnival. You can also dance in St. Tropez. The Côte d’Azur is bright and bold, but remember to travel safely in France by keeping an eye on your things and planning your trip ahead.
• Bordeaux & Beyond: Taste wine in big cities or small villages. Bordeaux is great for gay travel in France, but smaller towns may be more traditional. So, stay polite and enjoy local life. Our style guide will help you fit in anywhere.
• French Alps: Go skiing in Chamonix or take a hike in the wild mountains. When you’re hungry, try a local dish like tartiflette. Local guides know the best stories, so ask them for tips. To travel safely in France’s mountains, see our gear checklist.
