Culinary Tour to Italy - vineyards in Piedmont.jpg

Join me in the spring of 2025 on a culinary tour in beautiful Tuscany, Italy. This region of the world is special. Really special. The Tuscan medieval hilltop towns look out over timeless landscapes that resonate deep inside your heart. As the sun sinks below the hills, the entire sky lights up into varying degrees of soft pinks, yellows, oranges, giving this phenomenon the name of the Tuscan glow, a marvelous way to end a day with a glass of wine in hand. This trip’s pace is a bit slower and more relaxed, so we can experience La Dolce Vita, that slow, sweet life that Italians have perfected. We'll learn to make authentic Italian dishes with seasonal ingredients, drink luscious wines, taste amazing cheeses and charcuterie, explore Florence, enjoy lovely country walks, and so much more!

Heidi, the owner of Forktown has been leading and planning trips to Italy since 2006, and will accompany the group as the tour leader for the duration of the tour.
