As France gears up to host the Rugby World Cup and the Olympics in 2024, the country is beckoning travellers from around the world with its rich cultural heritage, breathtaking landscapes, and top-notch sporting events. To make it easier for travellers to experience the best of France, Rail Europe, Atout France, Etihad, and Silversea recently hosted a French soiree in Sydney for 50 top-end advisors, showcasing the best ways to reach and explore the country.

Rail Europe’s GM of APAC, Richard Leonard, highlighted the convenience of train travel between London and Paris, and beyond on board the Eurostar. With a vast network of trains connecting major cities and towns in France, visitors can explore the country in a comfortable and efficient manner. Director of Atout France, Patrick Benhamou, shared that RWC tickets are almost sold out, and the not-to-be-missed opening ceremony will be held along the River Seine on July 26, 2024.

Etihad’s GM of APAC, Sarah Built, reminded attendees of the airline’s new destinations, seasonal routes, and collaboration with Armani. With a wide range of flight options, Etihad offers visitors the flexibility to plan their trip to France as per their convenience. Christine Gardiner, Sales Manager NSW for Silversea, shared that luxury travel in France is also experienced aboard the cruise line. From the sun-kissed beaches of the French Riviera to the historic waterways of the Loire Valley, a cruise on Silversea is a memorable way to explore the country’s diverse landscapes.

To sweeten the deal further, six lucky agents won door prizes, including a case of Pommery champagne from Silversea, two 1st class Eurail passes from Rail Europe, two $250 vouchers from Harris Farms, an exclusive Dior tote bags from Etihad, and two return flights to Paris, also from Etihad.

With the Rugby World Cup and the Olympics fast approaching, France is set to be the centre of the sporting universe. But it’s not just sports that make France a must-visit destination. From world-class museums and art galleries to gourmet cuisine and wine tasting, the country offers something for every traveller. So, pack your bags, book your tickets, and get ready to experience the joie de vivre in the land of romance and sports.
