Welcome

…to Culinaria, your ticket to the finest gastronomic vacation in the Americas.

Journey with us to exotic destinations on a culinary adventure designed to provide you with a deeper understanding, appreciation and enjoyment of foreign cultures.  Whether you are interested in taking cooking lessons or simply coming along to enjoy one great meal after the next, we have an exciting culinary vacation that is guaranteed to stimulate each and every one of your senses.

We have been very careful in selecting our destinations in order to offer you gorgeous locations which are off the beaten path and which possess great culture and incredible cuisine.  We hand pick our chefs and cooking instructors for their knowledge of local foods, talent, and teaching ability.  We also choose hotels, restaurants, wineries, and cultural attractions that are unique, authentic and of excellent quality.  You can rest assured that we visit, we taste, and we experience everything beforehand so that we may offer you the perfect culinary vacation.

In Argentina we offer a variety of choices beginning with Buenos Aires, truly a sophisticated European metropolis in America.  Here you will come to understand why Argentines are so passionate about life.  Whether it’s their love of grilled beef, fine wine, soccer, politics or the tango, Argentines like to savor what they do.  This is especially true of their cuisine; a rich blend of European flavors and local traditions that yields unique and varied recipes that will stir your emotions.  Our programs give you the opportunity to experience Argentina’s cuisine at its finest and submerge yourself in the wonderful culture that gave birth to the tango, perhaps the most vivid and beautiful expression of Argentina’s passion.   Do you wonder what the hotels are like?  Well, we pick and choose and wouldn’t offer you any place we wouldn’t stay in ourselves.  Besides, many of the hotels are simply spectacular.

If you are a wine lover, you can also indulge in our wine and culinary tours in the stunning Andean landscapes of Mendoza, truly one of the world’s best-kept secrets.  In Mendoza you can stay in beautiful quaint hotels, visit idyllic vineyards, taste world renowned wines, sample and learn all about exquisite regional cuisine, and still have time to relax and enjoy some breath-taking scenery at your leisure.

Soon we will be offering culinary vacation packages in other destinations as well.  How does fine tropical cuisine sound after taking a dip in warm Caribbean waters?  Or perhaps traveling back in time to explore ancient Mayan and Aztec civilizations while enjoying the rich variety of authentic Mexican cooking?
