The inspiration behind Bites & Sites

On my travels I’ve discovered to my delight that food is a delicious expression of culture. For me, no visit to a town is complete without doing at least one of the following:
• exploring its food market (if there is one)
• having a meal at an eatery where the locals hang out
• learning to cook traditional dishes (first-prize is at the chef’s home!)
• I even find the local supermarkets fascinating and happily lose myself between the aisles of weird and wonderful fruit / veg / drinks / jars that locals take for granted.
The key to unlocking the true gems, though, is having an insider. Someone who can invite you into their culture and take you beneath the superficial surface. That is the philosophy at the heart of every Bites and Sites tour. I invite you to come along and savour the experiences with us.
After all, food is made for sharing.
