A Delicious Gourmet Day On The Côte d'Azur

Experience a once-in-a-lifetime gourmet adventure in beautiful Sanary-sur-Mer on the legendary Côte d'Azur. With the scent of lavender and sea in the air, your day begins with our France-based expert who will greet you, and after introductions and orientation over a glass of local wine, it’s on to discover delectable regional specialties in this charming fishing town where Cezanne sipped Pernod on the port.

Explore the incomparable open-air market bursting with delicacies as well as specialty shops in this lively village's backstreets. You’ll learn about provencal cooking. A delectable multi-course lunch overlooking the Mediterranean will be followed by free time for shopping and exploring on your own. Then, re-gather for an informative and fun ‘Talk’ where you’ll learn all about the French art of Eating, including courses, pastries, chocolates, the art of the aperitif, secrets of how the French manage to stay so slim - even how to pair foods with wines.
