Cooking Vacations

Lifestyle Vacations, the leader in Culinary Tours in France.

Lifestyle Vacations offers original cooking, gourmet & cultural fully-escorted tours in France and in Portugal, by Corinne Preteur.
Corinne created Lifestyle Vacations fifteen years ago, after a successful career in the food, wine and travel business in Europe, Asia, and USA. Her knowledge, expertise and network make Lifestyle Vacations tours very unique. Lifestyle Vacations partners with Cooking Vacations Italy founded by Corinne's childhood friend Lauren Birmingham-Piscitelli.

Lifestyle Vacations offers journeys designed for very small groups throughout France and Portugal, as well as full-day tours in the Paris region, and in Loire Valley, Normandy, and Champagne. You will learn the best of French or Portuguese cuisine with experienced cooks and starred chefs while discovering each country off-the-beaten paths.

You are looking for a short time recreational gourmet activity such as cooking, baking or wine tastings classes, and food walking tours?
We have it! Classes and tours are scheduled year-round in Paris, and from March to October in Lyon, Bordeaux and Provence.

"The French love of food is rooted in sharing good times and enjoying life, which is what makes it most inspiring".
