The Tourist Office of the Nantes Vineyard is invited to the Rouxel Lambert Travel Open House.
This coach operator books group trips for us, the aim is to promote our destination to their clients. About thirty tourist destinations are present and get settled. At 9.30 am, on an accordion background, the first participants arrive!
Among them, Mrs JUHEL from the local pensioners’ association. She plans 2 day outings / year for the association. She has been coming to the open days for the last 10 years, she is a devoted customer! The trips to the Nantes Vineyard interest her, she just has to book!
The whole Rouxel family and the Lambert family are present for this event (Mr Rouxel and Mrs Lambert are partners). The friends also give a hand, the atmosphere is very friendly and the customers come in mass. I meet Guillaume Rouxel, the son of Mr. Jean-Claude Rouxel, the boss. He explains to me that the Open Days have existed for 30 years with hundreds of groups in daytrips or stays / year
The expectations of the parties are simple: to have a good time, to eat well and to make beautiful tours.
This year, Voyages Rouxel Lambert has decided to put forward 3 days outings in the Nantes vineyard:
– Perfume of Italy daytrip with the guided tour of Clisson in a small tourist train, the park of the Garenne Lemot and a tasting in a wine castle.- Loire Valley Delights daytrip with a guided coach ride to enjoy the Loire Valley landscapes, a lunch with Loire Valley specialities, a tasting at the Brasserie de la Divatte or at the Domaine viticole de l’Auberdière.
– Let the P’tits Papiers daytrip with the Museum of French Song and its recital and the discovery of the Liveau Paper Mill. Moulin à papier du Liveau
A great operation with 30 requests for groups and about a hundred requests for individuals who do not travel in groups but who are looking for ideas for outings in the region. With the bonus of a great welcome on the spot: to be done again!
