Erwin as our tour leader and the group were great company. The tour was a combination of visiting amazing places together with a foodie experience.
Throughout the week, we had pleasure in indulging in delicious food, wines, cheeses and sweet treats of each of the areas.
Exploring Saint-Émilion and visiting Chateau Coutet winelands in an eco buggy was a memorable experience.
Our cooking class at La Savie with Chef Frédéric was an absolute highlight; we enjoyed making and eating delicious porcini mushroom risotto, the perfectly cooked duck breast with roasted vegetables and the most amazing Crème brûlée with spices.
Another highlight was visiting Rocamadour and walking the Chemin de Croix originating in the middle ages; this was truly inspirational and thought provoking.
The traditional cassoulet dinner in Toulouse was a perfect way to end a fantastic week!
The tour gave us the opportunity to visit unique places we would never have found on our own.

A wonderful trip overall. The accommodation was very good, especially in Lansac with Chistine.
With hindsight, even though we are a bike fit couple in our 70s, we would choose the e-bike option for our next trip. More time for leisure en route!
The map apps was good but had a couple of false starts while we got used to it.
We highly recommend this trip.
