Embark on a culinary adventure like no other with our exclusive private guided gourmet tour of Sarlat-la-Canéda on its vibrant market day. Prepare your taste buds for a tantalizing experience as we delve into the heart of this picturesque town, renowned for its rich gastronomic heritage.

As you wander through the bustling market, led by our expert local guide, be prepared to feast your eyes on an abundance of fresh, locally sourced produce, bursting with vibrant colors and intoxicating aromas. From aromatic truffles and succulent foie gras to an array of seasonal fruits and vegetables, Sarlat-la-Canéda's market offers a cornucopia of delights for food enthusiasts.

Local cheese tasting

Walk towards the Market and begin your discovery of the best produce of the Dordogne region. Your first stop will be at a cheese producing shop that has its own maturing cellar. Savor the opportunity to sample a variety of artisanal cheeses as our guide introduces you to the intricate nuances of flavor. Indulge in the velvety textures of Rocamadour, a creamy cheese with a distinct personality or Tomme a mild, semi-firm cow milk cheese, that has a buttery aroma. Stroll through the Market

Then follow your guide through the medieval streets of Sarlat. This walking tour allows your guide to point out all the local products of the season that arrive from all corners of the Dordogne. If you are lucky, it might be the season of strawberries, of which the Dordogne is famous for, and your guide will make sure that you have the opportunity to sample some. Duck, Goose, Wine and More Cheese tasting

Your next stop will be at a family run delicacies shop. Here, we will stop to taste small toasts spread with patés, enchaud and foie gras from either duck or goose.  Finish this tasting stop with a local cheese called Trappe d'Echourgnac. Trappist cheese is pressed, uncooked, fermented by retro-rubbing or by using the “morge” scrubbing technique. Then walnut liqueur is added. How much? And, then what? Well, that’s a secret never to be told! All this will be rinsed with a tasting of a White & Red Bergerac wines. Walnut Bakery

Your final stop will be at a local walnut cake bakery. No gourmet experience in Sarlat-la-Canéda would be complete without trying the town's famed walnut-based delicacies.
