Where Travel Meets Taste—Explore The world With a Chef
Join Chef Michael Howell on the culinary adventure of a lifetime...
A long-time member of Slow Food, Chef Michael has been curating intimate, exclusive journeys across Italy since 2003—unlocking rare, off-the-beaten-path experiences that go far beyond the expected.
This is travel for those who truly love food, wine, and culture. Savour exceptional regional cuisine, discover remarkable wines, stay in historic castles and villas, and cook alongside locals who bring each destination to life. Every detail is thoughtfully designed to immerse you in the rhythm, flavour, and spirit of place.
Our 8–12 day small-group journeys focus on one region at a time—so you can slow down, go deeper, and experience the destination as it’s truly meant to be. No rushing. No crowds. Just unforgettable moments, authentic connections, and a true sense of belonging.
And now, the journey expands. In 2026/27, Chef Michael brings this same signature approach to France and South Africa—inviting you to explore new culinary landscapes with the same depth, access, and passion.
Come hungry. Leave transformed.
