Culinary tours to Spain

Discover the culinary highlights of Spain with feast

Culinary Spain

Spain, a mosaic of landscapes and cultures, sprawls across the Iberian Peninsula, bordered by the Pyrenees and the Mediterranean Sea. With an area of over 505,990 square kilometers and a population of 47 million, it pulsates with the energy of cities like Madrid and Barcelona.

Spaniards embrace food as a cornerstone of their culture, a celebration of both tradition and innovation. With each region boasting its own culinary identity, Spain offers a tantalizing journey through its gastronomic landscape.

From the robust flavors of Basque pintxos to the delicate artistry of Catalan seafood, every dish tells a story of heritage and passion.

Paella, Spain's iconic rice dish, epitomizes the vibrancy of Valencian cuisine, while the smoky allure of Jamón Ibérico speaks to the craftsmanship of Spanish charcuterie.

Tapas, those small plates meant for sharing, embody the convivial spirit of Spanish dining, inviting friends and strangers alike to partake in the joy of good food and good company.

With its reverence for fresh ingredients, bold flavors, and conviviality, culinary Spain beckons all who seek to indulge in its culinary treasures.

Peloponnese: In the Heart of Greece - 14 Days

Explorer

It was a very well organized trip. Our tour guide Vivian took excellent care of us and our physical well-being. We could always rely on our driver Nikos. The two complemented each other perfectly. The Peloponnese is scenically beautiful. The historical sites were also worth seeing. Thanks to Vivian, we got to know Greek cuisine very well. The highlights of the trip were the olive oil tasting with Dimitra and the hike with Dimitris to the Prodomos monastery. A trip that can be absolutely recommended. (translated from German)

Umbrien: Gastronomische Schätze - 7 Tage

Insider

Es war die Pionierreise nach Umbrien und ich habe sie sehr genossen. Umbrien besticht durch seine grüne, hügelige Landschaft, die sich mit mit pittoresken Dörfern oder Städtchen mit lang zurückreichender Geschichte abwechselt, wunderbaren kulinarischen Produkten und bodenständigen, herzlichen Menschen. Unser Agriturismo war ein Beispiel dafür. Bei Giancarlo muss man sich einfach wohlfühlen: hübsche, geschmackvoll eingerichtete Zimmer im Landhaus-Stil, Frühstück bei Maria mit Spezialitäten Umbriens, z.B. dem umbrischen Apfelstrudel Rocciata und das hervorragende Olivenöl der Ciarlettis direkt vor Augen. Die Besichtigung und Verkostung der Produktionsanlage war sehr beeindruckend. Alles in allem die perfekte Mischung zwischen Kulinarik, Abenteuern (Trüffelsuche) und Kultur (Assisi). Ein bis zwei Tage länger wären wunderbar gewesen.

Explore Tuscan Flavors: 8-Day Journey

Insider

The Tuscany trip was planned for a long time and finally all my wishes were fulfilled. The trip is well balanced and includes many of the most outstanding places in Tuscany. Monica, our tour guide, made it an outstanding experience. On the one hand she was friendly, competent and humorous, on the other hand she offered targeted, structured and perfectly organized guidance. The Siena tour and the city guide on our culinary walk, the cooking classes and the visit to Montepulciano and the Spoerri Sculpture Garden were particularly impressive. In a way it is unfair not to mention the other program items - they were all well chosen and worth a visit. "Last minute" the accommodation was changed compared to the original plan. This was another happy surprise. The Castello and the family who receive guests in their house (B&B) are worth a visit alone to see and experience this place. Not only the rooms we slept in, but also the breakfast served with maximum attention and the unique experience of the evening "apericena" high up on the castle towers with a wide view over the Tuscan hills.

Best travel season

The optimal times to explore Spain vary depending on the region and activities you have in mind.

Generally, spring and fall offer delightful weather across much of the country, making them ideal for outdoor adventures and cultural explorations.

Summer brings sweltering heat to the central and southern regions, while the coastlines offer respite with refreshing sea breezes. However, coastal areas can get crowded during August, when locals and tourists alike flock to the beaches.

For a more tranquil experience, consider visiting during the shoulder seasons when temperatures are pleasant, and tourist attractions are less crowded. These times ensure a more leisurely pace for culinary adventures, allowing you to savor Spain's diverse gastronomic delights without the hustle and bustle of peak tourist seasons.
