Hey friends; who’s interested in a French Open adventure?
May 29 - June 4, 2026
I’m going to be in France for several months next winter/spring, and I thought if might be fun to see if we could put together a group of folks to go to Paris for Roland Garros!
Based on my previous experience at the French Open and some research I’ve done with friends in Paris, I’ve put together some ideas of how a trip could work AND be fun & affordable.
The Trip Could Include…
Six nights hotel (double occupancy, 20 minutes walk to the tennis stadium)
Breakfast delivered to your room every morning
Four days of French Open tickets
A behind-the-scenes tour of Roland Garros stadium & grounds
Day trip to Versailles, including palace tour, gardens, and catered lunch OR a free day in Paris
Plus, a two day pass on the BatoBus (a hop-on/hop-off Seine River boat with stops at the major attractions), a week’s citywide transport pass, and at least 2 lunches and 2 dinners included.
(you’d be responsible for your own airfare, meals & transportation not listed above, and fun & games)
