Food & drink
Food and drink have the power to reveal the soul of a place. The plum and cedar notes of a fine South African red; the fluffiest Bengali-style potatoes; a simple picnic of yielding Saint-Nectaire with crunchy bread and cornichons; the zing of fresh chilies on the tongue; the merry din of a bustling Thai market. A culinary vacation is a sensual safari that evokes memories, binds people together and teases out your adventurous side.
Study terroir amid mist-shrouded vines at a family-owned Tuscan winery; go in search of a robust ‘perry’ in Normandy, or sample some of the new breeds of whisky at distilleries popping up all over the UK. Whatever your tipple, we’ll get you behind the scenes at the world’s most coveted producers.
Celebrate the beautiful regional ingredients that are the stars of so many iconic dishes. Hunt for truffles in Tuscany; learn to make the perfect ceviche on a cooking class in San Miguel de Allende, or join a local family in Trogir as they make traditional Croatian fare.
If you love food, let us show you the ultimate gourmet destinations complete with Michelin-starred restaurants, cosy neighborhood bistros and fought-over street vendors for a private journey to savor.
