More and more, travelers are planning getaways with their bellies in mind. Bookings for food tours on the travel and reviews site increased a surprising 61 percent last year compared to 2016.
โTravelers are increasingly interested in getting local insight on their destination, and food tours and cooking classes are a great way to do that,โ said TripAdvisor spokesperson Laurel Greatrix. โComing home with a local recipe or a new favorite restaurant is the best souvenir.โ
The top food cities are determined using TripAdvisorโs reviews, ratings and booking volume for food experiences booked on the site.
