Take a culinary vacation featuring young, dynamic female chefs, deluxe accommodations, exciting excursions and the unique opportunity to cook with other women in two of the most scenic regions of Italy: the Amalfi Coast & Tuscany. “Travel for women exclusively has increased dramatically in the past few years," explains Karen Herbst, president of The International Kitchen - a premiere culinary tour operator dishing up cooking school vacations in Italy, France and Spain. "I think the success of our past Women Only Weeks is a real indicator that this trend will only continue to grow. We provide a venue for women travelers where they are totally comfortable.”
