What is culinary tourism?
Culinary Tourism is for foodies with a taste for adventure!
This is an exciting way of discovering the local cultures,
heritage and regional foods and wines. We will be enjoying
the more historic and elegant hotels, Inns and resorts of the world.
We will also get the privilege of discovering the finest restaurants,
eateries, customs, local secrets, cooking experiences and of course the
best foods in any and every city we visit. Spending quality time with the
Chef and his or her staff will give us the insights into what drives their
passions for food and the culinary arts. We will be experiencing foods,
wines and culinary arts in a different light, focusing on the foods of
the regions we visit. We will experience first hand what makes these regional
foods famous and/or sought after. Culinary tourism focuses not only on consumption,
but also on understanding, while learning with interactive classes,
with hands on and other unique opportunities.
Culinary Tourism lends itself well to group travel with like-minded individuals,
or a group looking to have a unique adventure while on vacation.
Our ideal groups range from 4 to 16 passengers encompassing any national
or international destination. Our European and Asian specialists are the best
in the industry - no other operator can offer these unique experiences.
We offer intense, in-depth studies with activities that
cover most aspects of the industry. We participate in classes,
demos, market tours, wineries, shops and producers. A culinary
tour is the perfect vacation for the well traveled looking for a
unique experience, not just another vacation. A culinary tour
is learning made fun. Discovering great chefs with like-minded business
practices is not only our goal, but also our motto. Fresh, Local, Organic,
Seasonable and Sustainable! All this creates a taste and appreciation for
food like no other. We are an urban tour company doing our part to show
you how to have a minimal impact on our environment while experiencing
the pleasures with a new appreciation for food and the chefs who create
their masterpieces to tantalize our senses and palates.
Why culinary tours? Knowing and understanding where your food comes from is a fun journey.
I developed this theme for my tours for many reasons, but mostly to satisfy my desire to discover all there is to discover about a city and its inhabitants. Many cities have a space needle, water tour, monument, famous house, special city tour or even a unique type of street. Visiting other cultures or regions with a new look at the journey, and experiencing some of the worlds best Chefs, Restaurants, Markets, Coffee Shops, Bakeries, Confectioners and Bistros! Wine makers and world class wineries, along with world class cuisine. This type of tourisms is perfect for everyone. It gives us a new prospective and appreciation for the culture of the region in relation to foods and wines. We know you will enjoy this different way of experiencing your vacation. Culinary tours not only entertain, they will entice your senses!
