Can special meal requests be accommodated (e.g. kosher, vegetarian)?
Students should indicate any specific dietary needs on the Special Diet section of the Family Stay Application. It can be difficult to place students with special dietary needs or allergies, so VIE cannot guarantee placement for students who cannot manage their dietary needs or allergies on their own. Vegetarians should know that there are few vegetarians in France and therefore the vegetarian options at restaurants will probably not be as varied as the group dinners. While touring outside of Paris, the Organizing Teacher and guide will inform each restaurant of any special meals that are required for participants in the group.
