GETTING TO FRANCE

Students can either travel independently or as part of a group. Those traveling as part of a group are escorted by an AFX Student Exchange staff member or representative from Melbourne. Upon arrival in Paris, students are greeted at the airport by a member of our
French team and any host families located close to Paris. 

For students hosted by families in regional France, we’ll help with transfers once you reach Paris. One of our representatives will also be present at the airport upon departure.

We will organise chaperones, on our group travel dates and flights, from other departure cities than Melbourne only if we reach sufficient numbers. 

If needed, you can also choose to travel to France with the group and return on a different date. If you’d like to travel in Europe or visit family at the end of your program, then individual travel is a great option for you.
