Reviews & Testimonials
“I was able to do as much or as little as I wanted & still felt like I saw it all! The trips to Turkey, Portugal & Guatemala were all wonderful! So of course I signed up for Germany next. Can’t wait to see all the places with Epicurean Travel because they take care of all the details & individually cater to each guests wishes”

“If you enjoy traveling as much as you appreciate discovering savory flavor blends, traditional cuisines and up to the minute innovates, Epicurean Travel is for you. If, like me, you abhor making travel arrangements, look no further for the perfect sojourn. Our May 2015 trip to Portugal was phenomenal in every way. We were guided to and through breathtaking scenery, significant historical and cultural sites, handsome restaurants and vineyards for mouthwatering repasts, stellar wine and unforgettable hands-on cooking classes. Our group was cohesive from the first minute; we laughed and joked through every happy kilometer we traveled together, comfortably and in style. I’m looking forward to the next adventure, knowing I’m in expert hands!”

“My trip to Guatemala with Epicurean Travel was a delightful experience, which far exceeded my expectations. Every detail was carefully planned and every desire was anticipated. The house we stayed in was spectacular. Our guide/fearless leader, Daniel Salguero, was simply fabulous. I’ve already planned 2 more trips with Epicurean Travel, a return to Guatemala and a trip to Portugal. I strongly recommend Epicurean Travel for a high end travel experience at a very reasonable price.”

“Our trip to Turkey with Epicurean Travel was amazing! We saw the best of Istanbul, the ancient world, and the countryside. Had great food, stayed at interesting hotels, met congenial companions, both other tour members and local people. ET had all the details planned to perfection!”

“If you love to experience new and unique destinations, cultures and their cuisine, this is a fabulous service. In addition to scheduled tours, they also offer custom tours for small to medium-size groups.”

“We had an absolutely fabulous week in Guatemala with Epicurean Travels. The house was the best…comfortable and beautiful with one of the best views in the world. Yes, I know that sounds a little over the top, but the view from the large patio is astonishing. Angela, our cook (a title which doesn’t really do her justice) made the most fantastic meals. Each dinner was perfecto. So, if you wanted, you could just stay at the house and be perfectly happy…just eating, drinking and relaxing. We were tempted. Did I mention there was a lovely swimming pool? But Guatemala called and we were eager to explore, especially with our awesome local guide, Daniel. He added so much to our daily adventures, explaining local customs and adding interesting historical stories. The people of Guatemala are so kind and friendly. Interacting with them was a treat each day. There is so much to see and do, you just cannot do it all in a week and will find yourself having to pick and choose your activities. But regardless of what you pick or where you go (or don’t), you will have an extraordinary week with Epicurean Travels.”

“I’ve taken two Epicurean Travel trips — to Turkey and Portugal — and recommend it enthusiastically. Marla and her team do a terrific job in planning trips that offer just the right balance between taking in all the wonderful sights and, living up to its name, enjoying top flight local food and drink. And the on-the-ground experience is seamless. While Epicurean Travel trips easily accommodate different kinds of travelers, it’s a great option for single travelers like me. I’ve thoroughly enjoyed the small groups of interesting, fun, and compatible travelers I’ve shared my trips with.”
