Travel PR and Media Relations

We know the media that matter in France and French-speaking Europe, and the travel journalists and opinion leaders behind them. Press office, press trips, press releases: every piece of coverage is tracked and measured, so you can see exactly what your investment returns.

Our focus

A Communication Agency That Specialises in Travel and Tourism

A generalist agency has to start by learning your business. We already know the travel journalists in France and French-speaking Europe, the French tour operators, the MICE buyers and the creators who count in travel, and we know the issues, the pressures and the opportunities that come with the territory. Stéphanie Picon and Virginie Le Norgant set the direction, backed by a team of experienced directors: Perrine Hauet for hospitality, lifestyle, airlines and mobility, Laure Le Cornec for destinations, and Virginie Moulin, who leads the trade team. And we account for our work with metrics you can check: media coverage, share of voice, reach, qualified leads and bookings.

We work with

  1. Tourism boards and tourism associations

  2. Airlines and mobility providers

  3. Hotel groups, independent hotels and chains

  4. Tour operators, travel agency networks and cruise lines

  5. Lifestyle, gastronomy, wine and spirits brands
