Travel off the Eaten Path

We loved having Keiko as our host! She was qualified, hospitable, and easy to converse with - not to mention a good chef. We had an outstanding afternoon with her!

I had an amazing experience with Chamsi. Chamsi explained so much about Moroccan culture & cuisine, I felt like I had a big step in understanding at the start of my Moroccan trip. I loved going to the market with Chamsi and then cooking with her. It was absolutely delicious and well-presented. This experience was amazing and I cannot recommend a Traveling Spoon experience with Chamsi enough!!!

Amazing hostess. Fun and an expert chef and she made a huge effort. The meal was stunning.

Jaatje and Willem are ideal hosts. They opened up their lovely homes and provided a warm atmosphere for a delicious meal. We even got to experience a vinegar tasting on their farm, which I highly recommend. From braai brekies out back to local wine, fresh vegetables and homemade pear birthday cake, our experience was more than a 10/10. Jaatje and Willem will be friends forever!

Definitely the best experience in Bangkok. We've been to Bangkok for few times, but never visited someone's house and never had lunch there. If I expected 100%, it was like 120% or above. Would definitely recommend it!

Marie is studying culinary and wants to own her own restaurant - I would be the first customer!! All in all it was a wonderful experience that travelers don't usually get - to really speak to local people about their lives, their work, the politics of their country...and most of all the food. Marie was great to let me help her in the kitchen - she is a natural! It was a heartfelt and amazing experience - thank you Marie and Florent!

Vinita and her family are very warm and welcoming. I was traveling by myself, and they made me feel right at home chatting with them. Vinita prepared a number of different dishes, and all of them were DELICIOUS! I would highly recommend Traveling Spoon - it is a great way to enjoy sampling local food while also meeting people from that area. It was so much more memorable than eating at a restaurant!
