On this late afternoon, enchanting Paris has reserved an exceptional, romantic
experience - a culmination of escapism and sweetness, just for you.
Sometime between 2:30 and 3pm in fall/winter, and between 5 and 7pm in Spring/Summer,
your hotel's reception or alternatively, the chauffer himself, will invite you
to go outside to discover a truly elegant surprise at the foot of your building.
Your partner will gaze in disconcertment as you delightedly discover a 1959
Mark IX Jaguar... a divine car in which you'll comfortably settle down into.
The engine will let out its trademark purr as you head off on an unforgettable
journey across the City of Light. You'll then leave the Paris region in order
to explore the French department of Eure-et-Loire and its typical green countryside.

d'Esclimont which stands in completely harmony with the wooden scenery that

This former La Rochefoucauld family residence and Renaissance masterpiece will
serve as your romantic stopover...

basket.

While looking down, hand in hand, at the forest you may even catch a glimpse

running away in apprehension of your strange aircraft...

concocted by our chef, accompanied by a bottle of Bollinger champagne.
Your attentive waiter will first serve you with a terrine of foie gras with
tender fruits accompanied by orange confit brioche.
You'll then sample John Dory or Bresse chicken fricassee with spring vegetables
and pea mousseline.
An assorted cheese plate will then be brought out.

surface of a pond to reveal the balloon's reflection...
