Going to Thailand was an amazing life changing experience! I met so many amazing people and had so much amazing food!! If I had to option to go back I’d go back any day, and over all my favorite thing was bathing the elephants!!’

A Guide to Cooking Adventure Travel Abroad

Popular Locations

Gallo pinto, pad thai, crepes...they’re all dancing through our external thought bubbles. Where will you go for cooking adventure travel?

Thailand. Your local takeout pad thai has nothing on the fresh flavors you’ll experience when you head to the Land of Smiles. Get ready for juicy limes, piquant chillies, and more versatility with rice than you could imagine. Cooking adventure travel here often includes a stroll through local markets to pick up fresh ingredients you’ll be cooking with later on in the day.

France. France is culinary heaven whether you’re looking for savory entrees or sweet pastry delights. Join a baking class to perfect your skills and feast on macarons, croissants, and all the choux buns you can get your hands on. You can also enroll in more intensive cooking adventure tours if you’re an amateur looking to go pro.

Costa Rica. There are many reasons to visit lush Costa Rica, two of them being staple foods throughout the world’s history: coffee and chocolate. By visiting Costa Rica, you have the added bonus of being right at the source of these rainforest delights. Cooking adventures here will help you elevate your palate and discover the unique, bold flavors of each new bean!
