FAQ BG

FAQ: What to Expect in Our Best-Selling Cooking Vacations in Europe and Beyond

  • If they are best-selling food tours, does that mean there will be a large group?

    No. Our group size for our food tours and cooking vacations always maxes out at around 10-12 participants, but for many of our culinary tours, the maximum is even smaller, 4-6 people. Often our culinary tours are private, and can usually be guaranteed as private.

  • Are the cooking classes really “hands-on?”

    Yes! You will learn local recipes with our chefs during authentic hands-on cooking classes. Occasionally we will also feature a demonstration class, but we are always very clear where that is the case.

  • Besides cooking, what else can I expect during one of your best-selling culinary tours?

    Like all of our culinary tours, most of our best-selling cooking vacations include:

    • Accommodations in boutique hotels, B&Bs, farmhouses, and villas,
    • Hands-on cooking classes featuring the regional cuisine,
    • Most meals,
    • Gastronomic excursions and tastings,
    • Cultural excursions to local sites of interest,
    • Transfers and transportation.
  • Do your best-selling culinary tours include flights?

    No. Except for the occasional custom-designed culinary tour, our cooking vacations do not include air. We can, however, help you with your airfare.
