Gastronomy should be an art. Food and culture have tight bonds that feed each other, grow, and change together. The origins of this fact can be traced back to the '80s, when the wine industry started to advertise wine drinking as an integral part of dining in America. Since then, the fact has spread around the world, and culinary, wine, food, and tasting tours, especially all-inclusive culinary vacations, have brought people together from different cultural backgrounds. Culinary vacation packages allowed them to discover different kinds of culinary habits, the usage of spices with regional agricultural goods, and, of course, wine and food tasting.

Today, culinary, wine, food, and tasting tours are serving more than just cuisine and wine tasting experiences around the world. Culinary, wine, food, and tasting tours are alluring options for those who are looking for local tastes and cooking lessons, both with transportation, accommodation, and city tour services. Books, detailed cooking guides, and websites can provide helpful guidance, but nothing compares to the aroma of local Italian wine on wine tour packages or the authentic spices you can experience on all-inclusive vacation packages to Egypt.

Visit Kakum National Park in Gana after learning to cook fufu, red red, and yam from a local family, or taste coffee flavored with cardamom in the warm atmosphere of Petra. A tasting of 12 French wines in the Burgundy wine region or a tasting of Petiscos in an authentic tavern in Porto may also be inspiring.
