Gourmet Tour - Caribbean Cuisine, Art, Culture, And Rum Tasting

OVERVIEW

Become immersed in the pleasures of local life through a remarkable variety of authentic experiences. You will see the artistic side of the islands while browsing the National Gallery of the Cayman Islands, whose collection ranges from modernist paintings to traditional crafts made with natural materials. George Town’s vision of the future will be on display from atop the observation tower that rises 75 feet above Camana Bay, a cutting-edge New Urbanist town designed around the principles of sustainability. The views will be especially panoramic as the topography of Grand Cayman is flat. The distilling of rum on the island is also a relatively new enterprise as you will discover by tasting a variety of premium spirits made from local ingredients. Still, it is the cuisine that may be the most revealing. The menu for your meal at the 1908-built Grand Old House will include courses that are classics and others that are highly inventive.
