5. Thanks to family ties and personal connections, E&P is able to offer
their clients access to unique historic sites in France, including castles,
vineyards, manors and museums that are generally not open to the
public. And most of all, E&P offers them the rare opportunity to meet in
person with the owners of such places.
E&P strives to create memorable experiences by arranging encounters
with members of the French aristocracy, dining in their company and
spending the night in some of their homes.

Exemples of the unique experiences we provide include :
•Wine & Gastronomy tour in Bordeaux : along a 2/3 days escapade
in Bordeaux you will discover some of the most prestigious vineyards
in Medoc, Saint-Emilion and all your favorite appellations. You will be
introduced to the owners, who will share their passion for their estate,
ownedbytheirfamiliesforcenturies. Someofthemwillopentheircastle
foracasualchiclunchoramoreformalcandlelightdinner!Youwillarrive
as guests and leave them as friends.We promise also an amazing French
gastronomy experience at the newly opened Joel Robuchon Bordeaux’
s Restaurant, the only 2* restaurant in the Medoc area and many other
local authentic tasty tables.
•Marie-Antoinette private world : no better dream than to discover
Versailles away from the crowds and in private. Go behind the scenes,
into secret rooms rarely opened to the public. If Louis the XIV loved
to make his life a show to impress the world, Louis XV, Louis XVI and
most of all Marie-Antoinette did whatever they could to escape from the
crowds, looking for always more privacy and a peaceful family life.
得益于家族的关系与我个人的人脉, 我公司E&P能够提供给您
全法多处历 史名胜的参观体验,包括城堡、葡萄 园、庄园以
及一些通常不对外开放的 博物馆。
更重要的是,我们能够提供 给您与庄园主人一个私人会面的机
会。

我们提供的独特体验如下：
• 波尔多的酒与烹饪之行：在波尔多2-3天的探险中，我们将
会在Medoc，Saint-Emilion和你所有喜爱的原产地中探寻其中
最著名的葡萄酒庄。您将会被介绍给农场主，向您分享他们对
自己庄园的热爱之情，这些庄园都已被他们的家族继承了几个
世纪之久。其中一些农场主会开城宴客，提供一顿精致的午餐
或者是更加正式的烛光晚宴。以宾客身份而来，以朋友身份而
去。我们承诺在新开业的，在Medoc 区域仅有的两家餐厅之一
的Joel Robuchon Bordeau餐厅体验一次惊艳的法式烹饪，当
然也会在许多其他当地地道可口的餐桌上体验。
• Marie-Antoinette的神秘世界：再也没有比在隐秘中探索
远离喧嚣的凡尔赛更加渴望的事情了。默默走到幕后，走入极
少对外开放的的秘密房间。如果说路易十四喜欢把自己的生活
搬到舞台上而引世人注意，那路易十五，路易十六以及Marie-
Antoinette则尽其所能逃离喧嚣的世界，向往更加隐秘的更加
安静的家庭生活。

15. «Living in the shadow of my eightieth birthday I believed that surprises
were rare. That is just not so if you are fortunate enough to take a
vacation in France and allow Mr.Manuel de Croutte to handle your tour.
I can assure you that some amazement and wonder await you. The
private tour E&P team arranged for me, my wife and two daughters to
NormandywasthehighlightofourtwoweekvacationinFrance.Thereis
no way in the alloted space to describe the wonderment and fascination
of our Normandy trip. In closing we wish to state a simple but sincere
THANK YOU to Mr. Manuel de Croutte.»

« Ellen and I had never been to the South West region of France before.
When we arrived in Pau, our guide and special new friend, Manuel de
Croutte, was waiting for us at the airport. From the moment we were
picked up, we were taken on the most perfect holiday of our lives.
Everything was arranged by Manuel ... from the luggage to the flowers,
to the finest rooms, to the most extraordinary meals.
And no one could have been better a tour director than him. There were
also amazing surprises like picking us up one evening and unexpectedly
bringing us to the Chateau d’Arcangues outside Biarritz, where we met
and had cocktails with the Marquis Michel d’Arcangues and a few of
his friends, sharing an intimate, candlelight dinner that could never be
recreated.
Having traveled worldwide and been on numerous exclusive holidays,
this was certainly the highlight in our lives in terms of delivering
ultimate luxury and first-class treatment.»
Owen&EllenColeman,New-York-USA
«常年生活在我80岁生日记忆的阴影之下,我一直觉得这世上
惊喜寥寥无几。但是如果你有幸来一次法国,让Manuel de
Croutte先生来安排你的假期,惊喜就真的会出现!我敢保证超
乎想象的美妙体验正在等待着你。
E&P团队为我和我的妻子以及我们两个女儿安排的诺曼底之旅
是我们在法国的两周中最难忘的体验。
真的,我找不到任何辞藻能形容这次非比寻常的旅程。最后我
只希望向Manuel de Croutte先生表达我最简单却最由衷的谢
意。»
——来自美国新奥尔良的Ronald Paul Richoux
« Ellen和我从来没去过法国西南地区。当 我们刚抵达波城,
我们的导游同时也是 我们的新伙伴——Manuel de Crou8e正
在 机场等待着我们。从那一刻起,我们开 始了此生最完美的
假期。所有的旅程细 节都是由Manuel安排的,从行李到鲜花,
从豪华的房间到最与众不同的餐点。
作 为一个旅行陪同,没有人能比他更能胜 任了。此外还有意
想不到的惊喜,比如说有一个晚上他在安排的日程之外带我 们
去了比亚里茨外的阿尔康盖城堡,在 那里我们见到了Michel
d’Arcangues侯爵 并与他和他的朋友一切共品了鸡尾酒, 共
享了一顿无法复制的、私密的烛光晚 餐。
虽然去过全球各地旅行,也体验过无数 不错的假日,但是这一
次绝对是终极奢 华体验。»
