フランス語料理教室＆カロリーヌとパリ近郊シャトーツアー

Caroline was a gracious host, who shared her deep knowledge of her home, village and the nearby Chateaux. We sampled local cheeses that we could never get back home, and helped prepare a delicious meal. This experience, outside the hustle and bustle of Paris, is one that we will never forget.

Caroline was absolutely lovely and provided a wonderful full day experience that really allowed us to soak in the French culture and cuisine! The food was delicious, we got a great tour of the cathedral in her town and we got to see the magical lights of Château de Vaux-le-Vicomte! 10/10!

This is in a beautiful quaint town not far outside Paris. Metro and train tickets are included but we drove and it was a beautiful scenic drive. Caroline has a lovely interesting home and gardens and is the consummate host. The food was absolutely delicious. We learned a lot and had a joyous day. We will go back next time in Paris as we felt we were leaving a friend’s home.

A once in a lifetime experience! Caroline is most welcoming and a truly good soul! A very special experience! Caroline takes care of you and makes you feel at home while giving you memories for a lifetime! Caroline met us a the train & provided a personalized tour & cooking experience in her home. She then arranged an amazing tour of the Castle! It was like visiting a relative on holiday! She makes you feel comfortable, takes care of you while teaching you the French life and history!

My daughter and I enjoyed Caroline’s cooking class very much. It’s an easy 26 minute train ride from Gare de Lyon train station to Melun. It was only 2 of us in the class, it is a private class. Caroline is a wonderful host. She is very sweet, personable, kind and generous. It was so much more than just a cooking class, and we learned a lot about the culture also. Caroline is a great cook, the food was absolutely delicious! She also took us to the a few centuries old church, it was very interesting to visit such an historical place. After the class was over, we went to the Chateau Vaux le Vicomte. Chateau and shuttle bus tickets back to the train station were provided by Caroline. Chateau Vaux le Vicomte is a beautiful interesting place, not crowded, which made a visit much more pleasant. Overall, it was an excellent class, actually much more than a class. Thank you so much Caroline! It will always be a special wonderful memory from our travels visiting France.

Our day spent with Caroline in the French Countryside was definitely a highlight of our trip to Paris! She was very easy to communicate with and made a point to ask about our food preferences so she could build a menu around our tastes. We assisted with some dishes, observed others, and she had a few special ones prepared ahead of time. We enjoyed champagne and various wines with our lunch. The village was beautiful and charming and Caroline’s home and grounds are very special! We took a walk to see the beautiful medieval church in her village and after lunch she drove us to the Chateau de Vaux-le-Vicomte where we toured the castle and grounds. Since we had no time constraints on our personal schedule we were gone the entire day. Melun is approx a 30 min train ride from Paris. Thank you, Caroline, for your hospitality and for creating a memorable day for our family!
