Introduction Hi I am Hubert, the hippo mascot of the active gourmet travel, named for St Hubert who was born in Toulouse around 600AD. He is the patron saint of hunters. Why would a travel company choose me, a portly hippopotamus, to represent them? Because my sleepy, relaxed appearance belies an amazing turn of speed. This epitomises the company's ability to move and change direction when needed - on tours you must expect the unexpected.I get to hang around the clients a lot, so I know heaps about travel and I will give a few insider tips to those of you thinking of travelling with us. Sign up to my blog see what we are up to!
Interests Cycling, walking (I jest), hedonistic feasting & drinking, wallowing in waterways, trampling grapes, travel gossip, hunting in the forests of France and Italy for special places to cycle, walk (hrrumph) & enjoy my beloved picque-niques.
