Cooking Vacations
Luxury Line
Where can you find the ultimate luxury foodie trip? Right here at The International Kitchen .
Our luxury line cooking vacation packages provide pretty much what you would expect of a first-class, long-standing tour operator like The International Kitchen. A luxury food tour first must have high-quality luxury accommodations. You want to be pampered, and you want to feel pampered, on a luxury vacation package. Some of our luxury culinary tours include accommodations at boutique five-star hotels, others at luxury resorts, still others at deluxe private villas. But a luxury culinary tour package does not just mean a beautiful room with great views and great service. It means a trip that is superb at every level. Some of the characteristics of our luxury line culinary vacations apply to all of our trips, including transportation in luxury cars or mini-vans, professional and courteous drivers and guides, and first-class food.
Do luxury line culinary vacation packages mean every meal at a Michelin-star restaurant? No! Most of our clients, luxury or not, want an assortment of dining experiences on our cooking vacations, and that is exactly what we aim to provide, whether you are dining at a 10-table Michelin-star restaurant with 20 chefs, or a small, family-run trattoria that doesn’t even print a menu.
Custom Private Luxury Tours
Our clients are always surprised that not only can we customize almost all of our culinary tours and cooking vacations, we frequently create custom culinary vacations from scratch for our travelers. What could be more luxurious than a 5*-star, customized tour completely tailored to your tastes and interests? Many of our culinary vacations can be “upgraded” on request from the standard accommodation level (usually four-star) to a high class such as five-star or five-star superior. But we can also create completely new luxury vacation packages for our clients, such as a recent five-star private Spain culinary tour we designed for clients traveling to Malaga, Granada, Cordoba, Sevilla, Madrid, the Costa Brava, and Barcelona with accommodations in five-star hotels and paradors. Choose a five-star, private luxury Italy tour to Tuscany and the Lakes Region with stays at private villas and five-star resorts. Or a five-star foodie trip to the Amalfi Coast and Sicily complete with private guided tours, Michelin-star dining, and private yacht cruises. Or a luxury culinary tour to Morocco, where you can experience the luxury of five-star riads and even a luxury tent experience in the Sahara desert.
Whether you are looking to be part of a small group of foodies exploring the local cuisine in the most luxurious way possible, or looking for a private luxury tour for two, The International Kitchen is able to satisfy pretty much any request.
