Try One Of These Virtual Vacations And Cure Your Wanderlust This Summer

Share

Travel to a tropical island, Europe, or Iceland this summer, without ever leaving your couch! As the country begins to reopen, people are finding that although their favorite restaurants are now taking reservations, international travel may still be on the backburner for quite some time. Travel is important and can bring your senses alive. When you travel, you are introduced to new flavors, customs, sights, and sounds. This summer, you can still experience the beauty that other countries have to offer, while staying safe (and also saving megabucks!).

Devour Tours combines food, people, and history. They transitioned their in-person tours online, and I’m not mad about it! The programs are immersive, interactive, and consist of small group online food & drink experiences. They have both paid and free options. The guides are friendly and coming to you live from their homes in Europe. Learn to pair cheeses and wines like a Parisian, live from Paris. Learn to make Spain’s most delicious tapas and sangria, live from Madrid. Take a masterclass on The Great British Afternoon Tea, live from London. Find out about more class options and prices here.
