Airbnb Cooking Experiences are the ultimate foodie travel experience

Since food is woven into every travel memory, the new Airbnb Cooking Experiences are the perfect way for foodie travelers to taste a culture’s authenticity.

Travel trends are always evolving. The new Airbnb Cooking Experiences offer travelers a glimpse into the tasty, culinary traditions around the world.

While more and more people are traveling for food, these food experiences share culinary traditions around the world. More importantly, guests are left with the opportunity to re-create those flavorful memories at home.

The Airbnb Cooking Experiences are more than exposing travelers to celebrated restaurants or celebrity chefs. These experiences are intended to show how food and culture are deeply connected.

Whether people see the commonality in the dishes on the table or not, one aspect is always clear. Sharing a meal creates a bond and enhances the human connection. Stories told become memories made.

“Ever since the very first guests travelled with Airbnb, we have realized that sharing a meal is the key that unlocks culture and fosters connection. Through Airbnb Cooking Experiences, we want to bring back the tradition of people coming together to make and share meals, and through this help preserve unique recipes that are shared within family kitchens around the world,” – Brian Chesky, Airbnb CEO and Co-Founder.

The new Airbnb Cooking Experiences highlight the connection that food and culture have. Even though a myriad of restaurants can create amazing meals, the real, authentic food from an area often comes from a more personal level. These experiences offer that connection.

The local hosts in these experiences are families, farmers and pastry cooks and others. From sharing recipes to diving deeper into the traditions, the personal connection is real. With each experience vetted by Slow Food, “a grassroots organization whose mission is to prevent the disappearance of local food cultures and traditions,” these experiences could give travelers the ultimate travel memories.
