    Over the past few years, there has been one name etched into the thoughts of anyone attending Roland Garros. Rafa Nadal. The undisputed king of the clay court, Nadal was the one to see. And that was exactly what a group of tennis fans had in mind when they approached Blend Group to organise a trip to Roland Garros, the only major tennis tournament on clay.

    Our clients wanted to see both the men’s semi-final and the final, while also experiencing the fine art and dining that Paris has to offer. A four-night stay at the five-star Sofitel Paris Le Faubourg put the group close to both the sporting action at Le Stade Roland Garros, and within easy access of the city’s cultural hotspots.

    The tennis was accompanied by a full VIP hospitality package, with canapés, seated dining for lunch, and category one seats for the match. In between sets, the lounge was available for refreshments and champagne. The latter was much needed when, true to form, Nadal took the championship prize, after an exhilarating match against Austria’s Dominic Thiem.

    The French Open experience

    Paris is always about art, culture, and fine dining, amongst whatever else visitors find to do. The bells of Notre Dame ringing over the Seine, the intricate sweetness of freshly crafted patisserie, and the scent of French classics winding out from the doors of a brasserie. Our guests wanted to indulge in everything that Paris has to offer, but with just one day between the tennis matches, we had to curate an itinerary that offered a comprehensive experience of the French capital, in just a few hours.

    Tickets to the Louvre were booked in advance, giving the group the chance to admire world-class artworks without the queue. Lunch on the river provided that classic French café fix, followed by a stroll through the still bohemian streets of Montmartre. Guests then took in Paris’s most iconic landmarks from the water, as a private cruise along the Seine gave them the opportunity to see as much as possible from one spot.

    Paris is the home of French fine dining, and there are big name restaurants in every arrondissement. However, our guests wanted to experience something a little less obvious, so we prepared a gastronomic adventure through four nights of dining at some of the city’s lesser known names such as La Min, Picotte, La Fontaine Demars and L’huitrerie Saint Germain. View the itinerary below to see how the trip was planned out.

    If you would like to combine a major tennis championship with a city break in between, please get in touch via the Contact Us page.
