What you'll do
Yes, I must admit it I love good food. When I am not busy doing or preparing tours, I cook. For my family, friends and even myself. I really love it. Normandy is an amazing Foodie paradise. In this full day tour you'll taste the best french cheese, Camembert of course but not only, try our delicious hard cider and Calvados, Normandy's liquid gold. You'll meet my friend, Jérome, Pont L'Evèque best cheese producer, and chairman of the Pont L'Evèque AOC board. You'll learn everything about Camembert in Camembert village, and about french cheese. Driving and walking through the most lovely villages of the Pays d'Auge, you'll understand with me that our cheeses and drinks can be made nowhere else, and enjoyed at their best right here. This is a tour for the Slow Food concerned, and for anyone looking for authentic quality products. You'll have a Gourmet lunch in a Michelin rated restaurant by the river, admiring the lovely Normandy cows. At the end of the day, the Calvados drink will have no more secrets for you.
