To help you discover the region through tasting and meeting local producers. If you fancy a chic gourmet experience, I can organize one-of-a-kind picnic prepared by Michelin starred chefs. Or a county-style lunch in the heart of a vineyard, with your own private chef. I also offer general day tours and I am very well versed in local culture, history and more. Plus, since I run a second company which edits and publish local tourist guides, I know all the best shops and restaurants—so let me recommend as I am sure you will enjoy these places as much as I do! My car holds up to 8 passengers. Prices begin at 380€ per day for a couple. Gourmet experiences are priced based on the number of people and the complexity of the lunch.
