Food tourism is getting more and more popular with every year. In a world of growing wanderlust and culinary curiosity, the age-old adage, “you are what you eat”, could be replaced with “you are where<\/em> you eat.” Today, more than ever, the globe-trotting gourmand is looking for new ways to explore the world through the fork and knife.<\/p>\n

This yearning for gastronomic adventure is growing<\/a> at an astonishing 16% every year. By 2027, food tourism is poised to become a $126.28 billion industry. Why so? Perhaps it’s because culinary experiences, like those you can do on an Insight Vacations tour, are a simply wonderful way to explore somewhere new. Cooking classes, fine dining experiences, wine tastings, farm visits and more; this is a sumptuous feast for the senses. Experience the world in style through the aromas wafting from street food stalls, the touch of freshly harvested ingredients on a cooking class, the laissez-faire chatter during a vineyard stroll. We’ve compiled a list of some of the best Insight food experiences that do more than just nourish; they sate your curious appetite for adventure, culture, and education.<\/p>\n
