I’d highly recommend Off the Beaten Path & Christy Destremau for your next trip to France! Christy has been doing this for a few decades and it shows with her knowledge of history and her extensive network of great chefs, wine makers & excursions. We had a group of 9 family members of various ages & there was something that appealed to every age. We visited castles, chateaus, had dinner at an award winning French chef’s house, tasted the finest Loire Valley wines & had lunch in their family chateau, had a cooking class from another notable chef at his restaurant, but the highlight for all was a hot air balloon ride over the Loire River valley floating over castles, chateau’s & vineyards - absolutely breathtaking & magical! Our rooms fantastic at the centrally located Le Clos d’Amboise & the breakfast was outstanding! We had 3 vegans in our group, all the chefs & restaurants accommodated their dietary restrictions. Last but not least, Christy’s colleagues Remy & Christine were so helpful, caring & FUN!!
