What You'll Experience
A Culinary World Awaits
Food and wine tours go far beyond restaurants — they're about access to the people, places and processes behind the world's greatest flavours.
Château & Estate Visits
Private access to winemaking estates — cellars that don't appear on tourist maps, tasting rooms with the winemaker present and bottles you won't find in Australian bottle shops.
Cooking Classes
Hands-on sessions in real kitchens — fresh pasta with a Bolognese sfoglina, riad cooking in Marrakech, Balinese cooking, and okonomiyaki at an Osaka counter.
Truffle & Ingredient Hunts
Pre-dawn truffle hunts in Tuscany and Périgord, spice souk exploration in Marrakech and fresh ingredient market visits at every destination guided by a local chef.
Michelin-Starred Dining
At least one starred restaurant experience is included on most tours — sometimes the full tasting menu, sometimes a remarkable midday dégustation that represents extraordinary value.
Market Masterclasses
From Tsukiji's tuna counters to Lyon's Halles Paul Bocuse, the Boqueria in Barcelona to Hanoi's Đồng Xuân market — food markets are the soul of every destination we visit.
Sake, Sherry & Port
Sake brewery tour in Fushimi with the head toji, sherry bodega in Jerez de la Frontera and a Port wine quinta lunch in the Douro Valley — the world's great alternative ferments.
Cheese, Charcuterie & Artisans
Parmigiano-Reggiano dairy tours, prosciutto producers in Parma, Moroccan argan oil cooperatives and a Dijon mustard house — the artisans behind the world's great preserved foods.
Street Food with Locals
Vietnam's Mekong floating markets, Osaka's Dotonbori takoyaki stands, Fez's medina stalls and a late-night street food walk in Hanoi with a food journalist as your guide.

What Travellers Say
Food & Wine Tour Reviews
From Australian food lovers who have travelled the world's flavours with Cooee Tours.
"The truffle hunt in the Crete Senesi was the single most extraordinary food experience of my life. We followed the dogs through the oak forest at dawn and then sat at the hunter's family table eating scrambled eggs with fresh truffle shaved directly over them. Cooee arranged what no travel agent I'd ever worked with could."
"Standing in a Burgundy cave tasting a 2015 Chambertin with the Domaine owner explaining why that particular vintage changed his understanding of his own vines — I can't describe how that felt. The Michelin lunch in Lyon was magnificent. The group of 12 became close friends by day three. I've already booked Spain."
"Japan blew my mind in ways I couldn't anticipate. Our guide took us to a ramen shop where the chef had been perfecting his broth for 22 years. He spoke no English and she translated every detail. I came home with Japanese knives, a book of food recommendations for my next visit and a completely different understanding of what dedication to craft looks like."
