IMPORTANT NOTES:
Program participants and travel companions must be adults - 17
years of age or older. Also note that the program involves a lot
of standing for long periods and walking (with bags at times)
so good mobility and strength is important. Because we go into
small towns, handicap access is at a minimum.
Our minimum requirement for this program to run is 8 students
and the maximum is 12 students (traveling companions are not included
in minimum or maximum number). You will want to wait to book and
confirm your flight schedule to France until we confirm that the
minimum number of students have registered.
Traveling Companion fee is based on Double Occupancy and
includes:
Guided walking tour of chocolatier's boutiques
Six nights accommodation in Tain l'Hermitage and Paris
Welcome Dinner and Lunch
Farewell Lunch
Breakfast Daily
Transportation (train, bus and taxi) includes Paris to Tournon
return
Those wishing to explore the la Drôme region of France while
their student is at Ecole du Grand Chocolat should consider renting
a car in Valence.
Maître Chocolatier Program Certificate:
Students completing the program will receive an Ecole Chocolate
Maître Chocolatier Certificate of Achievement.
Cancellation Policy:
Our Ecole Chocolat Maitre Chocolatier Programs and Tours only accommodate a
limited number of students and are usually full with a waiting list. As these
programs involve a travel component - we need to contact those on the waiting
list in enough time to for them to make travel arrangements. If you have to
cancel, we will do everything in our power to find a replacement but cannot
guarantee that we will be successful - please remember that your deposit is
"non-refundable". No refunds will be given after 45 days prior to
the program start date. Please make sure that you are committed to the program
before paying your non-refundable deposit. We also suggest that you take out
travel insurance when booking your travel to and from the program in case of
an emergency. |
