• Initial Consultation – Free: A 30-minute call (video, phone, or chat) to get to know your travel style, interests, and preferences.
• Travel Design Fee – €150: This upfront planning deposit covers your custom Paris itinerary and is credited toward your final booking. It becomes non-refundable once the planning process begins.
• Hotel Booking – Free: We never charge for hotel reservations. We work with trusted hotel partners who compensate us directly—so you don’t pay extra.
• Trip Booking & Concierge Service – 5–10% of total trip cost: This fee (minus the €150 deposit) covers final trip arrangements and our 24/7 on-the-ground support throughout your stay.

Here's our complete planning and payment process:

1. Initial Consultation (30 minutes): A free consultation via video call, phone, or chat to understand your travel style, interests, and preferences.
2. Personalized Itinerary Planning (5 business days): Within 5 business days, you'll receive your personalized travel plan featuring accommodations, activities, and transportation. This includes two rounds of refinements.
3. Finalize Booking: Once you approve the itinerary, we apply a service fee (5-10% of total trip cost, minus the planning deposit) and secure all reservations.
4. Pre-Trip: Your travel planner conducts a detailed briefing with essential trip information and remains available 24/7 throughout your stay.

We recommend booking 3-4 months ahead for peak seasons (summer, Fashion Weeks, and holidays) to secure the best accommodations and experiences. For off-peak travel, 2-3 months is typically sufficient.
