Join SBS’s award winning “Destination Flavour” host and MasterChef winner, Adam Liaw, on a once-in-a-lifetime culinary adventure through Japan.

World Expeditions has launched a new 12 day Taste of Japan with Adam Liaw designed for travellers keen to discover the delights of Japanese cuisine – from delicious street food to Michelin restaurants.

Other highlights of this outstanding itinerary include a visit to the famous Geisha district of Gion in Kyoto, staying in a traditional ryokan, time to experience Japan’s beautiful gardens and temples and a hike through forest trails along the ancient Nakasendo Way.

The new trip is part of World Expeditions’ Food Lovers’ range, all of which combine culinary experiences with walking explorations of the destination’s cultural and gastronomic highlights.

World Expeditions CEO, Sue Badyari, said that the Food Lovers’ trips are an authentic and mouth-watering way to fast track your understanding of a city, country and culture.

“Discovering destinations by taste is a stimulating experience, giving travellers a deeper understanding of the destination while the itinerary’s outdoor activities provide opportunities to see first-hand the landscapes that yield the local produce and to learn about the traditional processes that define the region’s cuisine,” she said.

“As you move through the country in the company of our expert leaders in cuisine and culture, such as Adam, you’ll participate in behind-the-scenes cooking classes and visits to the best local kitchens, markets and growing areas in the region,” she said. “Pairing the active travel style with a hands-on experience of culinary traditions gives travellers a unique perspective in their destination of choice.”
