Foodies should consider planning a trip Down Under, where Qantas Vacations has created a "Taste of Australia" experience to highlight the country's food and wine offerings.
This, of course, is just one of the itineraries in the Qantas Vacations Best of Luxury collection, which takes visitors on an "epicurean adventure" (we've been there; it really is an adventure) through three distinct food and wine regions of Australia.
Tourism Australia, the official national tourism body, is engaging in a global campaign to promote Australia’s food and wine experiences. The strategy behind food and wine is that cuisine is now a relevant factor in deciding where to go on a vacation.
The highlights include a private wine journey through Victoria’s Yarra Valley, a visit to the Barossa Valley of South Australia to Penfold’s Winery where visitors can create their own wine blend, and a seaplane flight over Sydney with champagne tasting and three-course dinner.
Qantas Vacations can help customize vacations, and even suggest many spectacular experiences that you may have never heard about. For food and wine enthusiast, itineraries can be crafted to include cooking classes with award-winning chefs or a tasting menu aboard a private yacht.
