E&W TRUE FLAVOUR JOURNEYS
Our True Flavour Journeys are a collection of special small group tours that are personally led by our founder Sean O´Rourke. After 25+ years of designing boutique food, wine, and walking tours we have decided to create a collection of tours visiting destinations that have stolen our hearts and palates! Our first gastronomic journey will be to the Madeira Islands, Portugal in November 2024.
Not only do we travel slowly, but we also do it right by being Responsible, Safe, and Sustainable! Come with us on an Eat & Walkabout!
