Bonjour Paris is a 10-day educational travel experience designed for student groups seeking meaningful cultural connection through language, daily routines, and shared experiences. This French immersion in France program introduces students to both iconic landmarks and the rhythms of everyday Parisian life.
This program combines guided exploration in Paris with an extended Family Stay Experience®. Students practice French in real-world settings—navigating neighborhoods, sharing meals, and engaging with host families, all while gaining confidence and cultural awareness.
From historic districts and world-renowned museums to authentic family interactions, this french language immersion journey supports language growth through lived experience rather than classroom-only instruction.

Prices are based on a minimum group size of 10 students. If the minimum is not met and your group cannot be combined, a small-group supplement will apply. Final pricing is determined by confirmed dates, air arrangements, family stay communities, program components, group size, and number of leaders at final billing.
Prices are subject to change due to fluctuations in fuel prices, exchange rates, and airfare costs beyond the control of Xperitas.
The order of itinerary items may change due to unforeseen circumstances prior to or during the program.
My son had a fantastic time. He wanted to go back before he was even home. The Family Stay Experience was great for him. Hiking, youth group, family birthday party, relaxing at the family home, hanging out with his host brother’s friends and checking out the city. He really enjoyed the complete package of this trip!
He would not have taken French for four years if this trip wasn’t planned. And now he is taking a fifth year of French. My son has always been a saver. But having to save and earn money to pay for the majority of this trip was a life-long lesson. He is hoping to visit France and other countries in the future.
For any students who are unsure about pursuing an immersion program, I can only recommend giving it a try. My trip to France with Xperitas brought a new dimension to a language and culture I hadn’t experienced firsthand. Exploring new places and cultures abroad has given me some of my best memories and best friends, and has certainly played a role in shaping my goals for the future.
