Wonderful way to see these three very different regions of France. Gilles was a super guide. Especially remarkable was his ability to adjust and customize the tour as needed on the spot. A really great tour! Highly recommended!" Karen from Hawaii, USA [2019] |
We had a wonderful 2 weeks of walking through beautiful country. Our hotels were excellent food quite interesting and different. We must thank Gilles for looking after his Bambini. He did a wonderful job putting up with the senior citizens." Jack from Melbourne, VIC, Australia [2016] |
Our Culinary Snail Trail walking holiday through Brittany, The Loire Valley and the Auvergne was one of the most rewarding holidays we have had in recent times. Walking along the scenic cliff tops in Brittany was exhilarating with views of the Atlantic on one side and green fields with distant villages and the occasional church spire on the other side of the track. Other features of these walks were the visits to small fishing villages and one lonely chapel set on a hillside and built by the local people in memory of those brave sailors who were lost at sea. The Loire Valley provided a complete contrast with its opulent chateaux were the rich and famous of a bygone era spent their holidays away from the busy cities. Each chatea had an interesting history. The Auvergne was our favourite area with its hills and valleys and lush green meadows. Walking over some of the hills and listening to the distant symphony of cow bells was magical. Our trip was made so enjoyable by our experienced and imaginative guide who planned comfortable walks to meet the needs of all members of the group and who took us on iexcursions to interesting places. We enjoyed the delicious regional cuisine and pleasant company. The Snail Trail met all our expectations and was thoroughly enjoyable and we thank Gilles for the care and attention to detail which made the journey so enjoyable. We look forward to another Walkabout Gourmet Adventures in the future." Heather and Peter from Melbourne, VIC, Australia [2016] |
Very much enjoyed. A special thankyou to Gilles. Fabulous food and good accommodation. Loire valley not interesting. Had seen castles before and probably many people on your tours had also." Rena from Melbourne, VIC, Australia [2016] |
