 Overall Trends in Group Travel Decrease but Numbers for The International Kitchen Surge

  05.07.07, 6:58 PM ET







 Despite the declining popularity of the general group travel
market, The International Kitchen has seen an increase in business of
over 30% the past year. Owner Karen Herbst attributes this to the
intimate group size that allows the traveler the genuine cultural
experience they are seeking. The meticulously planned itineraries, the
dynamic guides, the personalized service, the authentic culinary
interaction is what appeals to veteran travelers and first-timers
alike.





  Mrs. Herbst believes these group travel opportunities attract a
broad range of culinary enthusiasts. "We have many returning clients,
and we try to create dazzling itineraries with new and exciting
elements for everyone."





  With an increased appeal for experiential vacations, culinary
travel allows participants to discover and share a common niche
interest. If travel writing and journaling piques your interest, you
can join award-winning writer Jacqueline Harmon Butler's weeklong
program, 'Travel and Food Writing on the Amalfi Coast', November 4-10.
Perhaps you would prefer to travel with acclaimed Italian chef
Gaetanno di Benedetto to his Sicilian homeland, September 2-9 for
'Gaetano's Sicily'. If you are looking for a program in France,
consider a trip with noted chef Madelaine Bullwinkel who will
personally guide trips to the Loire Valley, Bordeaux and Provence; her
next trip runs September 8-15 near Aix-en-Provence.





  All of the trips include hands-on classes, visits to local food
artisans, wine and olive oil tastings and an assortment of cultural
excursions. Prices are all-inclusive land-only packages and range from
$2,250 to $2,890 per person based on double occupancy.





  The International Kitchen, the world's foremost culinary tour
operator, has been offering authentic cooking school vacations in
Italy, France and Spain since 1994.

programs visit www.theinternationalkitchen.com or
