Trek Safaris invites you to join Milton and Cara Hanburry October 22-28, 2025 for an exclusive couples’ trip to France that blends sensational shooting, cultural wonders, and elegant experiences—all set against the majestic beauty of the French countryside.
While Trek has a storied history of hosting couples across the globe, this is our first foray into France. Our team has spared no effort in its due diligence and planning to deliver a truly special and unforgettable adventure experience for our maiden Trek through France.
The Trip
On your day of arrival into Paris, we will check in to Paris’ 5-Star Hotel Grand Powers to recharge before embarking on a private dinner cruise along the Seine River. The next six days will be filled with exploring some of the country’s most awe-inspiring sights and culinary delights, as well as truly unique shooting opportunities.
On our final day, we will be transferred back to Paris to catch flights, unless you’d like to extend your stay in France. In which case, Trek can help with any additional tours or stays in France.
The Experience
Our adventure originates in Paris, where we will embark on an exquisite private dinner cruise along the Seine River. Once aboard, the vessel is all ours for the evening, as we indulge in fine French cuisine and wine and take in the enchanting views of the Paris as twilight casts its magic. In Paris, we will stay at the 5-Star Hotel Grand Powers, a truly magnificent property offering a posh respite from our trip across the pond.
The following day, we will take a short drive into the French countryside for a three-night stay at the stunning and historic Domaine de Sandricourt. Domaine de Sandricourt is a centuries old chateau, renowned for its impeccably managed wingshooting and breathtaking landscapes. Shooters will spend two days immersed in the tradition of wild gray partridge and driven pheasant shooting, with expert hosts ensuring a thrilling and seamless experience.
After breakfast, we will say our goodbyes and depart from Sandricourt in our private transfer to Versailles. We will have a private and exclusive tour of the Palace of Versailles. This tour is a unique excurion outside the usual tourist areas. After the tour, we will have a private brunch at Airelles Chateau de Versailles.
From Versailles we venture on to L’Abbaye des Vaux de Cernay, a stunning 12th-century abbey nestled in the heart of the Rambouillet Forest. This enchanting estate combines medieval architecture with modern luxury, offering serene landscapes, tranquil lakes, and lush gardens.
The following day, shooters will enjoy extraordinary duck and pheasant shooting at Chateau de Voisins, a breathtaking estate known for its exceptional mallard hunting. After a morning of touring, non-shooting companions will join our hunters for lunch and an afternoon exploring the chateau.
