For many travelers, indulging in a country’s cuisine is a real draw to a destination, from a rustic Tuscan pasta dish to a plate of delicate sashimi in Japan. We can make this culinary journey a real focus on your trip, arranging private cookery classes with a top chef, or a private picnic beside a quiet river, or a guided visit to a produce market where only the locals go.
