Pick a region, the days you have and what you most want to eat. You'll get a base city or two, a loose daily rhythm, a rough food-and-drink budget, and a checklist of what to read next — built from our own honest guides, not a sales pitch.
Change anything — the plan updates as you go.
The total days on the ground for eating and drinking — travel days count.
A planning sketch to get you oriented — not a fixed itinerary.
These are honest planning estimates to get you oriented — real prices, openings and seasons shift with the year, the town and your choices, so use the linked guides for the detail. The food-and-drink figures are per person and cover eating and drinking only — not flights, accommodation or transport; for the full picture see our cost guide. Base cities and seasons follow our where-to-go and when-to-go guides. We're an independent guide — we don't book your trip.
