Food & Drink

Whether you're a connoisseur or simply an enthusiast, a food and drink themed vacation is a fun way to expand your horizons. Explore cultures and traditions as you travel to regions such as California's Napa and Sonoma Valleys, South Africa's Winelands, Mendoza in Argentina, Austria's Wachau Wine Valley or Lyon in France, among many others. Along the way, visit beautiful restaurants, farms, vineyards, wineries, breweries and distilleries where you'll enjoy tastings and tours. Cruise guests also may participate in onboard tastings and food pairings or attend lectures hosted by experts.

Most excursions are included in the price of your trip, though there may be some optional activities available for an additional cost. These tours and cruises include accommodations, many meals, transportation and guided sightseeing in the upfront price. We also offer independent vacations that include your hotel stay and may also feature a local host to help you plan your daily activities.
