CULINARY TOURS

Travel Deliciously

Your Culinary Vacation Awaits

Early in our travel years, we stumbled upon a quaint restaurant overlooking the sea in Positano, Italy. Our founder watched as the restaurant owner visited with each dinner table, topping off the wine glasses of his guests while shouting repeatedly, “Donne Felici,” (Happy Women). It was a memorable experience and it is is precisely the feeling we strive to create in every culinary vacation that we offer today.
