Experience A Taste of Tuscany, Portugal and France
Taste of Europe Tours began in 2009 when we took our first group of women to France to cook with Jill Wilcox, of Jill’s Table in London, Ontario.
Since then hundreds of guests have joined us on more than thirty tours with Jill to explore the culture and cuisine of Occitanie, Provence and the Loire Valley in France, and Sicily and Tuscany in Italy. Over the next few years Northern Portugal and Northern Spain will be added to our scheduled tours.

In the Spring of 2020, Jill Wilcox will take two small groups on a culinary tour of her favourite sights and dishes of Northern Portugal. Will you join us? Our home for the week will be our own 17th century castle just north of Porto. On our day trips we’ll explore the foods, wines, history, art and scenery that make the region so captivating. This will be your wonderfully personal introduction to a beautiful part of the world. Highlights include daily cooking lessons with Jill and local chefs; visits to markets in Barcelos and Porto; fine dining in Michelin-starred restaurants and local favourites; wine tasting in Gaia …and much more!

Sorry, there are no Taste of France Tours for 2020
The loveliest part of France is waiting to be discovered. Jill Wilcox invites you to visit the Minervois wine region in the sunny south, nestled between the Pyrenees mountains and the Mediterranean Sea. It’s the country’s oldest wine producing region, charming and beautiful, rich in history and culture. There’s no better place to explore and enjoy French cuisine with no better guide than Jill.
