Culinary Travel in Spain

We specialize in providing authentic culinary experiences in the regions of Spain.

We believe that food and wine are among the most pleasurable ways to experience a place and become acquainted with its culture. The conviviality of the Spanish table, the purity of the food products and the wealth and inherent simplicity of the cuisine enchant us. We share this with you on our culinary journeys.

We do this by exploring kitchens, markets, producers, vineyards, and tables. We take you off the beaten track to places where food and wine are paired. It may be cooking lessons in a back-roads village inn, a behind-the-kitchen-door class with a Michelin-starred chef, a bodega tour with the vintner, a taste of artisan cheese, or a private tapas tour.

Spain holds within it a number of remarkable regional cuisines emanating from diverse landscapes and cultures. Tours with Epicurean Ways explore these cuisines on their home turf. We think you will find the food and wine culture in Spain contagious. We certainly have.

Our Tours

Our Culinary Adventures allow the participants to savor a single region or city in Spain with a small group of fellow food and wine travelers. Our culinary travel experiences are intimate and tailor-made, immersing you in the food and wine landscapes in settings at once exotic and enchanting.

Our Food and Wine Tours guide you through food-and-wine-worthy parts of Spain moving at a comfortable pace. We encounter culinary excellence in a range of restaurants and wine cellars. We meet notable winemakers and taste their wares. We stay in winery hotels, Spanish National Paradors, and unique hotels throughout. Expertly guided, these tours allow you to taste the best that Spain has to offer.
