FCLA stands for French Conciergerie in Los Angeles. If you look up charm, discretion, ease in the dictionary the picture you will find is of the French Concierge LA team. One can place ultimate confidence in them; they know everyone, they know everything. They know Paris, they know the City of Angels, they know travel and hospitality and how to make it personal and luxurious.
They can show you a happier world. Their motto is `be yourself, join us in the changing world`. The heart of good service makes you feel you know who you are. It makes you feel comfortable with yourself and therefore everything else. And this is a service that FCLA provides.
Currently they are offering a wonderful Valentine`s Day package in Paris and an entirely different but equally handcrafted Valentine`s Day in LA.
For Paris there is a My Valentine Package and a Her Valentine Package. The former involving the beautiful city of Reims in the Champagne region, plenty of famous cellar champagne and prestige restaurants, evenings at castles, spas and gourmet food. The Her Valentine Package is a beautifully paced and exquisitely appointed 3-day trip. Relaxing and at the same time attended to. Chauffeurs in luxury cars drive you everywhere.
The first day is all flower, champagne, and massage. The second day is a personal meeting with couturier Christophe Guillarmé, who will talk about his personal inspiration for his fashion and present his collection along with the distinctly Parisienne champagne, macaroons and the best chefs on hand to create a wonderful dinner. The third day involves more massage and relaxation before transferring back to the airport.
And while all this is going on in Paris, FCLA are working the City of Angels to truly angelic proportions. The LA tour involves a wonderful chauffeur on hand at all times to drive you anywhere from the highest tower in LA for a romantic dinner, to the observatory at Griffith Park. You discover everything exquisite in downtown LA and the newly hip Nice Guy Restaurant. You relax on rooftops of luxury hotels by the pool with the best cocktails. You enjoy the luxury of Beverly Hills, whose sister city is Cannes in the south of France.
FCLA knows everything about LA and the best of everything and they know how to make the City of Angels an aphrodisiac. They know how to find unchartered territories in what is traditionally thought of as one of the most romantic cities in the world and they know how to discover romance in LA.
Romance and relaxation definitely have to be created for you. Travel is not a natural state for either. But the FCLA makes it all effortless. When FCLA is not working on a specific Valentine’s event they can coordinate anything you want to make the most of your trip, helping make business connections or personal relaxation.
As the team have lived in both LA and Paris they know the uniqueness of both and can take you there, but that is not all. They can help with anywhere in the south of France from the Cannes Film Festival, which is often a nightmare to navigate, to Grasse, the capital of the perfume world. They can help you connect with the wine of your dreams and epic food destinations and chefs.
They are the way forward for the travel future.
