Notre guide était très intéressant et sympa. Il a expliqué l'histoire du fromage Français et la science du faire fromage. Après l'explication, on a goûter 4 très bons fromages typiques de la France.

The guides information was fabulous. She loves her job. Unfortunately 2 of the 6 people only spoke French in an English speaking tour. This was confusing and the tour longer than necessary due to her constantly switching languages. Great cheeses.

The cheese museum was truly excellent. If you like cheese and know a little about the different types, this will be of especial interest. I cannot recommend highly enough. I'm so glad I went. I learned about timing, types, reasons for differences, and more.
