Mason Cultural Tour: Flavors of Southern France and Italy

Enjoy the flavors and fragrances  of Provence and Northern Coastal Italy on this journey of the senses. Enjoy cooking classes, meeting the cheese maker, and exploring the rich culture of a region steeped in history.  From Provence you will travel through the principality of Montecarlo, and onwards to Italy.  Learn about local foods with hands-on experiences. Your Mason multi-lingual escort, instructor Patricia Boudinot, is from Cannes and will give expert advice and suggestions from her first-hand knowledge of the region.
