What better way to enjoy the pleasures of the Loire Valley than a culinary tour, with visits to open-air markets, cheese makers, bakers, butchers, winemakers, an artisan distiller and walnut oil producer. Then, return to a professional kitchen for a hands-on cooking class followed by a grand meal.

Accommodations can be in the Manoir de Champfreau, or Chateau des Sablons with all their period splendor and contemporary charm. Smaller groups can also be housed in the Barn at Le Clos de Bachet or the Saumur apartment.
