A Food & Wine Lover's Harvest Tour to Italy, France, Turkey, Chile & Argentina
...For the Gourmet Traveler "I would heartily recommend Wine-Knows Tours for single persons as well as couples who are interested in exceptional travel experiences. To say that your guests were treated like royalty would not be an exaggeration. From the carefully researched agenda, to special 'insider' winery visits and the wonderful lodging that you arranged, your attention to detail was flawless and professional in every respect."Bob M., Engineer, Hydroaire/Burbank, California
We have traveled extensively within Europe for 25+ years. Our personal touch, one-of-a-kind vacations are designed to provide high value at a reasonable cost. We are wine writers and educators with numerous professional affiliations, hence, we can:
• Arrange memorable private affairs at la creme de la creme wineries • Orchestrate cooking classes with cutting-edge chefs • Tour the best culinary producers • Secure accommodations in unique properties, most of which do not accept tour groups
Although we focus on food and wine, we also include cultural and historical activities. Visits will be made to leading museums and other not-to-be-missed sites.
Meet world-class winemakers. Dine in renown Michelin star restaurants. Stay in stunning wine-making chateaux and castle hotels.
