So this is the first post for our newly minted culinary group tour page. We decided to keep it separate because, while we've made our name through educational travel programs, it was time to shift into other markets. One that is growing is organized travel itineraries for small independent adult groups, and while museums and churches are fascinating, adults tend to want more.
We'll help you to discover new restaurants, markets and wineries away from the average tourist experience.
In the next while we'll launch a series of travel itineraries that lend themselves to the ultimate in small group experiences. These tours are perfect not only for small groups of friends but for families as well.
