The Guyenne - Great Wines and 'great music'
As you wander along the majestic Garonne, saunter around old Bordeaux, the Little Rome of old; explore the prestigious vineyards; be charmed by medieval St Emilion listed as a World Heritage Site by UNESCO; revel in the Medoc's chateaux of Margaux, the golden nectar of Sauternes, the spirit of Cognac. Relax at the opera or just float along on a luxury barge. You will soon become accustomed to the haute cuisine of the south-west!

The coast of the Var and the beautiful islands of Hyeres...
Sail on a classic rigged boat among the cliffs and headlands around the Island of Porquerolles and its rocky coast. Spent a night on board under the stars, or in the comfort of a hotel de charme. Something more adventurous ? How about deep sea diving in a splendid natural reserves or beautiful creeks ? Then criss-cross the scattered vineyards and olive groves of the route of the Crus des Coteaux Varois.

The great wines of Bandol... then try and reach the green...
In Bandol, the grape Mourvèdre is king: and that means fine wines to put down. Overlooking the Mediterranean, face the challenges of one of the most beautiful golf courses in Europe. How better to recall your stay than by cooking a Provencale meal at home ? Learn how from real professionals. Pick your own herbs, blend them with fresh home grown fruit and vegetables, local olive oil... then enjoy the results of your labours. And, how better to-ground off a perfect day than with music - perhaps an opera, a concert or a recital.

From the coast to Cassis. Wine, sea, cliffs...and the exhilaration of F1
If your recurring childhood dream has been about power and speed, you won't be able to resist the opportunity of learning to drive a F1 or GT car on one of the world's most modern tracks at France's leading school for racing drivers. Then, at a slower pace, explore through the vineyards around Cassis, soaking up the atmosphere of the bewitching Var hinterland.

In the painters'footsteps... and the Cotes de Provence Saint Victoire
During the crazy years at the end of the 19th century, the great painters were hypnotised by the luminous light of Provence. They recorded their wanderings on wonderfully evocative canvasses - now you can follow in their footsteps. And delight in a vineyard with a great future named after the mountain immortalised by Cezanne: the Cotes de Provence Saint Victoire. You won't be able to resist the calissons d'Aix - a splendid confection of ground almonds produced in that most delightful of romanesque cities - as you walk among its sparkling fountains and choose which of the multitude of cultural events best suit your mood.

Wines from Cathar country: Minervois, Corbieres, La Clape, Pic Saint Loup...
Imposing Cathar castles are perched high above vineyards which, international experts predict, are destined to produce some of the world's finest wines. After exploring the medieval city of Carcassonne, Europe's largest fortified city, a top chef will share some of the secrets of the meal you will relish in his gastronomic restaurant. This is wild boar country; keen hunters may, in season, track game through the rugged wild shrub and green oak covered garrigue.

Cotes du Rhone and chocolate…the Papal City.
Châteauneuf du Pape, Beaumes de Venise, Côtes Rôties, Crozes-Hermitage…the magic of the great wines of the Rhône. In contrast, a master chocolate maker will demonstrate his art, and introduce you to the subtle combination of chocolate with the wonderful Rasteau wine. Explore Avignon, the ancient city of the Popes. On fine days enjoy the theatre festival, or the numerous lyrical events in nearby Orange.

 

  These are just some ideas to set you dreaming. They are a delightful, unusual blend of adventure and leisure. But we are here to listen to your every wish, no matter how challenging. Whatever you want, we will deliver. Our only aim is to give you total satisfaction...
