                   It felt like an Anthony Bourdain experience. The right amount of history, culture, food and politics. Cuba is a fascinating place and we were able to see and experience it through a native - the best way to travel.

                   I normally don’t travel on group tours, but this one was different. Access Culinary Trips’ small group sizes meant that I didn’t get lost in the crowd, and we were able to have unique activities that only would have happened with a group that size!

                   Our Japan food tour was arranged so that we experienced the highlights of the country as well as its cuisine. Our guide was superb. She exposed us to so much and was very attuned to what each guest was interested in doing. The experience exceeded expectations.

               Our experience on the South Africa trip was amazing. Our guide and our driver were both extremely knowledgeable and fun. The itinerary was perfect, and provided a wonderful culinary and cultural experience across this beautiful, diverse country. We’re only sad it is over. Thank you.
