Gastronomad Experiences: the opposite of tourism
We define a "tourist" as a category of consumer -- a consumer of products and services aimed at holiday-makers on vacation.
When you join one of our Gastronomad Experiences, you're a maker, a participant, a taster -- a food and culture explorer. You become a temporary local.
Each day is filled with amazing experiences, and each experience is exclusive to us. These are not "services" provided for tourists. We have lived in each of the places where we have Experiences, and have spent years developing special relationships with local food visionaries, makers, artisans and others.
We take you inside the culture, where you'll get to know these wonderful people, learn how to make the food and taste the very best of everything.
Here's what people say about Gastronomad Experiences:
"Planning an experience this exceptional by ourselves would be impossible without the years Mike and Amira have spent living in these locations and their dedication to making each event perfect."
"The experiences that we lived were truly real and authentic."
"It was clear that Amira and Mike had established a real relationship with everyone and every place we visited. We were welcomed and treated as if we were family."
"Everything was expertly organized and of top notch quality."
"A relaxing, casual, and friendly get-together with a small group of food and wine aficionados in one of the greatest gastronomic places in the world."
"Every day was filled with culinary activities and fascinating destinations where we learned about local specialties, ate fabulous meals and soaked in the beauty of the region."
"Words can't express how amazing this experience was."
"I would go anywhere with Mike and Amira!!"
