Monica was an amazing host. We got lost with the directions we received..she went out of her way to meet us 30 mts later. Class and recipes were from her grandmother. So great to learn from grandmother recipes. We can’t wait to try when we get back to the states. Definitely enjoyed!

Cannot get hold of supplier.
I have still not received an update as to where and when this booking will be. I am not happy at all.
I booked this on Wednesday, I then did not hear from you regarding where I need to go and when so I messaged you to chase a location for the booking and received the below response at 6:30pm that you would contact me. I then received no update as to where to go.
At 10:30am the following day I then received a phone call from a lady called Roberta who was apparently waiting for me at her house, but I had not received the location or confirmation from you at Viatour. Roberta then said we could not proceed with the booking.
I am still waiting to hear back from you as to when I can make the booking. I only have today and tomorrow before I leave back to the UK.
I have called in twice now with no resolution and have just been disconnected on a call and no one has called me back. I am beyond unhappy with this service.
I will not be booking again, what a shame!!!!
