The focus of the Goldring Travel Culinary & Cultural Cruises is not to simply eat great food and drink great wine and cocktails, but to be immersed in the how and why they exist and taste the way they do. Michelle Shea, our Adventure Dining Guide Chef and Mixologist, has just posted an excellent article
I am excited to announce the 2018 Goldring Travel Culinary & Cultural (Food & Wine) Cruise on the Seabourn Encore setting sail on October 6, 2018. Goldring Travel is going to try something a little bit different. This is a 14 day cruise, which departs Barcelona, Spain on October 6, 2018. However, you can sail
The Goldring Travel 2017 Culinary & Cultural Cruise had a bit of a delay departing out of Portimao, Portugal due to high winds and subsequent tidal restrictions. For me it was a bonus as it resulted in a second sea day, rather than spending a full day in our next port, Gibraltar. I have spent

I’m not going to lie. I’m a bit disturbed. For many years Goldring Travel has held a “Food & Wine” cruise on Seabourn (I have also held one on an AmaWaterways river cruise). Last year Seabourn decided it would operate a couple of “Food & Wine” cruises. It told me in advance and assured me
Even though the 2015 Goldring Travel Culinary & Cultural Cruise on the Seabourn Quest was coming to an end, there still were more events and more to see as we return to the more “civilized” parts of Norway. Bergen, Norway As soon as we arrived in Bergen, Norway it was time for our Private Shopping
With two days at sea there was still much to do not only with the 2015 Goldring Travel Culinary & Cultural (formerly Food & Wine) Cruise, but out an about on the Seabourn Quest.
