Authentic Cultural Encounters
MEET PASSIONATE CRAFTMASTERS, PRODUCERS, AND GASTRONOMISTS
At Finding France, we strive to take you beyond “clichés” with captivating encounters where “sharing” is the key word. Immersion in gastronomy, crafts, and the French Art-de-vivre!
Vintners, cider-brewers, master cheese makers, cooks, potters… With us, you are guaranteed to meet the actual guardians of our living heritage. These one-of-a-kind experts in their craft honor you with VIP access to their workshops, the ideal setting for a passionate sharing about their trade, inspiration, and know-how – in person. Finding France has found over 30 such masters, each bearing witness to unique life stories, all of them deeply embedded in both tradition and innovation.
For instance, mouse your way into Hervé’s workshop: a spokesperson for the very respectable “Knights of Chantilly Whip Cream Confraternity”, he’ll whip up not only this world-famous cream, but also your taste buds and enthusiasm! Or you can get your hands dirty, modeling clay together with Stéphanie, a potter with a knack to bring the “extra” to light from within the “ordinary”.
DISCOVER THE HIDDEN TREASURES OF FRANCE
Thousands upon thousands of fascinating historic sites, picturesque villages, and fabulous private mansions lay quiet and out-of-reach for normal tourists… but when booking a travel tour with Finding France, you’ll get an insider’s take on each unique site.
Normandy, Champagne, Provence, and more – we plan custom trips in places that tourists normally can’t visit, places that truly afford an authentic and genuine experience of France.
Can you imagine entering the inner workings of André Le Nôtre’s visionary water pumping systems? See the 300-year-old beams and pistons in motion as they continuously supply the fountains of Chantilly. Would you prefer to drift along in a skiff winding through a patchwork of land-encased bayous in Amiens? These “hortillonnages” are where local producers have been tending fully organic vegetable patches since the Middle Ages… and you’ll get to feast on their produce!
Are you wondering what to see in France? Right now, click on and take a look at our destinations and sample itineraries, 100% customizable, for single-day outings or week-long trips.
