The Locales

These scenic spots are also great to unwind and talk about the different topics that are on everyone’s mind in regard to maintaining and growing the organization.

The Weather

As you might know, Southern France is full of sunshine, but in a very pleasant way.

The almost ubiquitous sunlight in the region doesn’t mean that it is sweltering hot either, since the cool breeze that graces the area practically all through the year makes it one of the most pleasant places on Earth to spend the time devoted to relaxation and recreation.

Couple that with the food, wine and entertainment which you can find through a bit of exploration, and you have a got killer retreat to your organization will remember forever.

What could be a better than networking sessions, organizational discussions and looks into the future while living well?

The Food

When it comes to gastronomy, not many locations in the world can rival the reputation of France as one of the most established culinary hubs on the planet.

While the Michelin-star hotels in Paris house some of the best chefs in the world, Southern France has its own delicacies which despite having made their way globally can only be tasted in their true authenticity within the originating region itself.

From warm and seafood-heavy yet utterly delicious bouillabaisse to the comforting vegetarian-heaven ratatouille (rejuvenated-by-Pixar, of course), the region has so much to offer in terms of local dishes that by the time you leave, all that you would remember is how delicious the French make their food.

The Wine

While Southwestern France has Bordeaux to boast about, the region of Southern France is not far behind when it comes to nourishing vineyards, thanks to its perpetually sunny yet windy Mediterranean climate.

The region of Provence is known for its rosés, while Côtes du Roussillon takes it one step further with its own offering of reds and some white wines. The Minervois appellation, on the other hand, houses some of the most deliciously dark red wines with hints of fruits and spice.

The region is also home to the Domaine Treloar Vineyard. Located in Roussillon, it is known as the best in the region and entertains wine tastings upon request.

The Recreation

Much like the aforementioned aspects, the region packs unique experiences when it comes to recreational activities as well, very different from, say, Paris Illuminations
Seine  Night Cruise

The mention of Cannes above might have caused you to think about the famous film festival, but while that only goes on one time of the year and all it shows to the general are stars on the red carpet, horse riding in the striking Provence is what might give you one of a lifetime experience.

If you don’t fancy yourself an equestrian, you can still channel your inner adventurer by going to explore the various French canyons and the rivers that flow through them. For instance, the Gorges du Verdon in South-eastern France with its turquoise waters and naturally-formed canyons provide distinctive opportunities for canyoning – which is the way of exploring the inner formations of these river canyons.
