Kensington is creating more itineraries designed to take travellers off the well-worn tourist path and into the kitchens, vineyards, and markets that define a destination as demand for food and culture-led travel continues to surge.
Built around firsthand experience from the company’s global network of Destination Experts, the journeys span Greece, Croatia, Portugal, Morocco, Peru, Italy, and Japan.
Helen Giontsis, President, Kensington, explained that: “Food is one of the most authentic ways to understand a place because it reflects history, geography, traditions, and community all at once.”
And Giontsis continued: “The experiences travelers remember most are often the ones they didn’t know to look for and often revolve around food and culture; a neighborhood cafe where locals gather, or a family-owned winery. It helps travelers move beyond simply seeing a place and begin to truly understand its history, culture and people.”
Examples of the journeys featured in Kensington’s Food & Wine Collection include:
- Greece: A Taste of Island Life – Sifnos & Paros
- Croatia: Croatia Island Hopping Adventure
- Portugal & Morocco: Lisbon, Marrakech and Atlas Mountains
- Peru: Taste of Peru – Icons & Culinary Immersion
- Italy: La Dolce Sardinia – Unwind in Style
- Japan: Flavors of Northern Japan – Tokyo to Hokkaido
