Gourmet Touring
Gourmet Touring is a tourism company operating in the Bordeaux wine region of France.[1] Founded in 2003 by John and Siân Mears, the company offers GPS-assisted tours of the area, with particular focus being placed on high quality food and wine. Initially the business was built around the rental of classic cars,[2] but subsequently the focus has shifted towards providing a premium sightseeing tour accompanied by visits, typically, to Michelin starred restaurants and vineyards.
Publicity
[edit]Despite the small size of the business, Gourmet Touring holidays have featured in a number of UK magazines and newspapers, the most notable of which include a review in The Times[3] and a place on The Independent's Ten Essential Roadtrips [4] As well as this, online magazines such as Lifestyle + Travel[5] have written features on the organisation.
