Who am I ?
My name is Daphne, and I am based on the French Riviera.
After many travel experiences, a life abroad, studies and different work in the tourism and hospitality industry (hotel, travel agency, tourism offices), I started creating tailored-made trips.
Creating and organizing trips is not new to me, and I have been doing it for years – for myself, friends and family -, and I realised, throughout the years and travels, that this is what I enjoy doing : creating tailored experiences and allow travelers to live their dream and create unforgettable memories.
With this project, I decided to offer “basic” (I don’t like that word) trips, and specialised in themed travels, more specifically cinema and art trips ! For both themes, I have my parents to thank : movie buffs and art teachers, how could I not follow their steps ?
Ever since I was a child, cinema has always been part of my life, ans I even had this ambition of working in the movie industry. I always enjoyed travelling “following the steps of…”, travelling with a purpose and passion. Wether it is about History, cinema or art. The idea of travelling only to get the “famous instagram picture” does not speak to me and neither do I offer this type of trip. We have one planet, and over crowding one place for a picture is not the best idea.
My “coup de cœur” ?
Scotland ! For the ambiance, the people, the many filming locations, the history and this magical vibe all around ! As a big Harry Potter and Outlander fan, magic definitly speaks to me ! Scotland is filled with filming locations, especially in the heart of nature, many beautiful castles. But Scotland also has a rich and complex history, and it is a country with which France also has had tight bounds. A road trip is probably the best way to explore the country, but many places are reachable with public transport. I did a mix of both : car rental and public transports !
Ethic and values
Transparency and quality
No hidden fees nor partnership, no mandatory visit or purchase. One price, clear and fixed.
And of course quality of service, which will never be neglected for quantity. Making sure my clients are happy and satisfied with my services is, and always will be my priority.
Ethic & environmental responsibility
We know it, tourism is responsible for a lot of environnmental and ecological problems. Because of the pollution, the over-crowded spaces, littering, and lack of respect for the environnement and local people.
I therefore try my best to be responsible and try to help our planet and do better for the future. My choices will always reflec that : web-host eco-friendly and responsible, avoid any unnecessary printing, not including videos on my website, print on recycable paper as much as possible…
I also make the clear choice of not offering pre-made “package deals”, not promoting already over-crowded places, or places that do not respect the native people for profit (for example the maldives).
Inclusion and accessibility
To me, l’inclusion et accessibility cannot be in the background. It is very important to me that every single person contacting me and booking my services feel listened, safe and not juged about anything. This means every person part of any minority, including people with disabilities. I try my best to make my website as accessible as possible for people with dyslexia, colorblindness, etc. Of course, it might not be perfect, so feel free to contact me if you have any idea or insight regarding this matter.
