Cooking Vacations to Spain & Portugal

About Our Vacations in Spain & Portugal

Everything about Spain – its food, wine, and culture – exudes passion and sophistication. The bustling outdoor food markets, a collage of flavors, smells and vibrant colors, add a touch of the exotic to the sizzling paellas and delectable specialties of this sun-drenched county. Portugal has a rich seafaring past, and a landscape wreathed in olive groves, vineyards and wheat fields. Savouring life slowly is a Portuguese passion – traditional folk festivals; simple, honest food drenched in olive oil; and markets overflowing with fish, fruit and flowers.

Whichever itinerary you choose, your culinary vacation in Spain or Portugal will include comfortable accommodations in one of any number of lovely properties, including deluxe hotels, renovated farmhouses, and charming inns. And of course, the hands-on cooking classes will introduce you to the finest Spanish cuisine or Portuguese dishes, using the freshest ingredients and focusing on regional specialties. Journey with us to these lands of sunshine and warmth for a cooking vacation to be remembered!
