Kirill Lazovsky
My name is Kirill, and I help travellers discover the authentic taste of France through its wine, food and culture. On our trips, we get to know a region through its traditions, history and people.
I was born in Russia, in Rostov-on-Don, but have lived in France since I was 13. This country has become my second home and a true source of inspiration. Over 25 years, I have studied its culture and wine regions, turning that knowledge into my profession.

Over the years I have created more than 35 signature wine and food itineraries through Burgundy, Champagne, Provence, Brittany and other picturesque parts of France. My attention to detail makes each journey truly distinctive: I choose welcoming hotels and châteaux to stay in, interesting cultural events and the best restaurants for discovering local cuisine.
