Eat your way around Asia, India and Europe under the guidance of Australia’s culinary experts on an unforgettable gourmet journey that includes exclusive foodie experiences you’ll remember forever.
In a delicious partnership that’s guaranteed to get your mouth drooling and stomach gurgling, APT has once again joined forces with Gourmet Traveller – Australia’s leading food, wine and travel magazine – and designed five tailor-made tours for 2018.
These exclusive new tours contain everything APT is already famous for (e.g., fully-inclusive touring with all sightseeing, most meals, and unforgettable APT experiences) with a special focus on uncovering a destination’s culinary highlights.
A member of the Gourmet Traveller team (including the editor, travel editor, chief restaurant critic) will host these tours and be with your clients every step of the way, helping them uncover a destination’s culinary awesomeness through their invaluable knowledge and exclusive Gourmet Traveller experiences.
This unique partnership is exclusive to APT and the folks over at Gourmet Traveller, and the five new tours for 2018 have your foodie clients’ names written all over them! (Click here to download the brochure.)
We’ll fill you in on all the delicious details concerning the Europe tours in a future article, but for now, let’s look at what awaits your clients in China and India with APT and Gourmet Traveller in 2018.
