Food Adventures
A Taste of North India 9 day culinary adventure through Rajasthan
Food Adventures
Travelling is often about trying the food of the area. But this is often only done in restaurants, without knowing the different dishes and how they are prepared. Our food adventures change this, thanks to our travelling chef, who will take us to markets and help us shop for ingredients and introduce us to local families who will show us the secrets of their cooking. We will go behind the scenes at a local restaurant and meet the chefs; we can try our hand at cooking, and our travelling chef will be there to help. We can relax and watch or we can join in; the degree of participation is up to us. If the dates of our food tours do not suit, or you prefer to travel individually, the same itineraries are available for one or two people, travelling on any date of their choice. For details please see our selection of Private Car tours.
