Ireland with a Chef — Hosted Food Tour

Five nights in Ireland’s foodie heartland — hosted by a celebrated Irish chef. Ireland with a Chef is EGT’s hosted food tour: small hosted groups, one outstanding chef, and five days eating your way through Cork and Ballymaloe country.

Your host travels and eats with the group throughout — and your host is announced with each departure.
