Hi Jill
Thank you so much for featuring the cooking classes by MH.
In fact we have changed the name of the tour to ‘Live like a Local’ which you can find on the home page of my website. Surprisingly this tour is not selling at all – so any advertising is greatly appreciated. We also have 2 other new tours for 2015: ‘Cezanne in Provence’ and ‘Gourmet & Wine 2 Day Tour Package’ Both of which are proving popular
Please let me know when you are next in Aix – it would be great to see you again.
