Small villages, old farms and traditional livelihoods come to life with beautiful landscapes, interesting history and heritage breeds of animals.

We had a great morning with Anne, who was extremely knowledgeable about the farms, products and the region. We were able to visit farms and producers we would have never found on our own. Anne did a great job of keeping it interesting for my son, who loved getting a chance to get close to those beautiful Bazadais cattle. Great tour, great guide!
