Active Gourmet Holidays brings you an incredible cooking vacation in the southwest of France. You will take cooking classes with a native French chef. Through artisan and market visits you will explore the Périgord region of France known for its cuisine, wine and truffles. You will be taken to see ancient cave dwellings dating from 20,000 B.C. and you will explore medieval villages. And if that is not enough, you will have the unique experience of staying in an authentic fortified medieval castle. And of course since this is a culinary extravaganza, you will dine on delectable cuisine and fine regional wines in the same space where knights, lords and maidens broke bread and shared meals together. This is an experience not to be missed! Taste Croatia
Croatia is one of the most popular foodie tourist destinations in the world. We have created this program for those who wish to explore Dalmatia through its vineyards, kitchens and countrysides. You will discover the area through guided city tours, private wine tastings, hands on cooking classes and a chef guided market visit. Versailles Cooking and Culture
In Versailles you will get right into the heart of the French way of life. “Haute cuisine” was invented in Versailles during the reign of Louis XIV, who wanted to appreciate the real taste of good quality produce. During your stay, our chef, whose cooking workshop is located in Versailles’ historic food market, will give you two hands-on cooking classes where you will have fun learning how to make some delicious French recipes, pastries and main dishes. |
RESERVE MY TOUR COOKING IN THE DORDOGNE "It was an absolutely marvelous week. The accommodations were superb. I loved the course, the host, and the Chambre d'Hote which is a lovely country house equipped with everything one could possibly need. I was incredibly pleased to when dealing with AGH. All in all, a fantastic experience that I hope to be able to repeat, perhaps in Italy next time." Anita D., Encinitas, California |
