Paris Day Trips
“We shall not cease from exploration. And the end of all our exploring will be to arrive where we started and know the place for the first time. ” – T. S. Eliot, 1942
Short culinary breaks in the city of lights…and day trips outside Paris to meet the best French cheese experts. Visiting Paris or live here? Arrange a private day tour to visit the best fromageries and learn how to select and taste French cheeses or arrange a day for a specialized dégustation, like all goat, or all creamy & squishy, smelly, blues or mountain cheeses. Also we offer several day trips to famous fromageries and affineurs outside of Paris in the Ile-de-France or an overnight visit to one of the most renowed affiners of France in Alsace.
