FOR AMERICAN FAMILIES IN EUROPE
Your summer in Europe, arranged by people who live there.
The villa in Saint-Tropez, the table in Monaco on race weekend, the chalet in Courchevel at Christmas and the school in Geneva when you decide to stay: ATLAS MAISON is the European house for American families, with one contact who knows your New York calendar as well as your Riviera summer.
WHAT WE ARRANGE
Everything between landing and leaving.
For a week, a summer or a new life in Europe.

Private aviation from Teterboro, Palm Beach or Van Nuys to Le Bourget, Farnborough, Nice, Milan or Geneva, with a car on the tarmac.
Children & grandparents

Moving to Europe
Residence, schools, homes and companies in France, Italy, Switzerland, Monaco and the UK, with licensed advisers in both countries.

IF YOU DECIDE TO STAY
Many American families end up staying. When that moment comes, our relocation concierge coordinates licensed lawyers and tax advisers in both countries, because US citizens remain subject to US tax wherever they live. We coordinate the advisers; we do not give legal or tax advice ourselves. Read our guide →

Americans in Europe: questions
Do you offer a concierge service for Americans travelling in Europe?
Yes. We arrange villas, hotels, private aviation, yachts, dining, events and family logistics across France, Monaco, Italy, Switzerland, the United Kingdom and beyond for American families, with one point of contact who plans around US time zones.
How far ahead should we plan a summer on the Riviera?
For July and August, the best villas in Saint-Tropez, on the Cap d’Antibes and on Lake Como are often committed by early spring, and sometimes a year ahead.
Which airports do private jets from the US use in Europe?
Commonly Paris Le Bourget, London Farnborough or Luton, Nice Côte d’Azur for the Riviera and Monaco, Milan Linate for Lake Como, and Geneva or Sion for the Alps, depending on the destination.
Can you help us buy a home in Europe?
Yes. We coordinate searches, viewings, notaries, surveyors and lawyers, with licensed professionals in each country. Atlas Aeromarine and Atlas Heritage handle jets, yachts, art and classic cars within the group.
Do US citizens need special tax advice when moving to Europe?
Yes. The United States taxes its citizens on worldwide income wherever they live, so advice from licensed cross-border advisers in both countries is essential. We coordinate them; we do not give tax advice ourselves.
