What is Food Tourism?

More precisely, travelers might judge a tourist attraction based on the local dishes because food is tightly bound to the corresponding tourist spot. With that said, “food tourism” does not refer to eating only. It is the collection of activities such as vegetable farming, produce markets, tasting sessions, etc.

Trend Alert: The rise of food tourism is trending rapidly and should be planned carefully and efficiently. TourRadar allows you to explore and try culinary experiences across the globe — and UniStorage connects it to Penang's heritage from farm to table.
