Brittany Culinary Tour*:
Discover the soul of Brittany through its coastlines and cuisine. Over seven days, you’ll explore the region’s most iconic shores—from the rose-hued rocks of the Pink Granite Coast to the windswept sands of the Côte des Sables and the jewel-toned waters of the Emerald Coast. Along the way, you’ll cook with local chefs, shop vibrant village markets, and savor the freshest seafood in settings that blend rustic charm with coastal elegance. This is a journey for the senses—where every bite tells a story, and every view deepens your connection to place.
hands-on cooking classes
Step into the heart of Breton hospitality with two intimate cooking sessions in a local chef’s own kitchen. Surrounded by the aromas of sea air and seasonal herbs, you’ll prepare traditional dishes using fresh, locally sourced ingredients—from just-caught seafood to market-picked vegetables and artisanal dairy. Each class is tailored to the rhythm of the region, celebrating what’s in season and what’s meaningful to the chef.
After the final stir and garnish, we’ll gather around the table to share the meal together, savoring not just the flavors, but the camaraderie that comes from cooking side by side.
Daily Market and Fresh seafood
We will visit several morning markets—like the one in Lannion—where stalls overflow with fresh herbs, cheeses, and handmade treats, alongside colorful displays of clothing, crafts, and curiosities. There’s time to wander, chat with vendors, and lose ourselves in the charm of the city. Later in the week, we’ll make our way to one of Brittany’s most celebrated coastal markets in Cancale, where we’ll delight in freshly shucked oysters and the bounty of the sea, all just steps from the shore.Scenic Coast and Medieval cities
From rose-hued cliffs to emerald bays and windswept dunes, Brittany’s coastline is a study in contrast and wonder. We’ll walk the Pink Granite Coast, where sculpted rocks glow at sunset and seaside paths lead to hidden coves. Along the Côte des Sables, the landscape opens wide—white sand, tidal flats, and the raw beauty of the north. Then there’s the Emerald Coast, with its jewel-toned waters and elegant promenades, perfect for a leisurely stroll or seaside aperitif. Between these natural marvels, we’ll explore medieval towns like Dinan and Lannion, where half-timbered houses lean into cobbled streets and history lingers in every stone arch and market square.
