A great experience, our guide Morgane was perfect, smiling and friendly. I recommend her. The only downside was the terrine tasting, where the person hadn't been warned and so our guide got the short end of the stick, but I don't think it was her fault. All the same, we had a great morning full of discoveries. Thanks again, do it again.

A great walk with a guide who combined history, anecdotes and delicacies. Our taste buds were delighted, as were our eyes: sweet, savory, our stomachs were filled... We didn't see the time go by, and we're back for more. Thank you, Stéphanie. Your epicurean neighbors in Toulouse ;)
