Where do we start?

arrival / departure

The Adams & Peabody team will meet you at the specified location for any given trip. Typically, our departures meet at roughly 11:00 am on the first day. Once all the guests have arrived, our team will shuttle the group to our first hotel.  If you wish to meet the group directly at our first hotel, let our team know ahead of time.

Conversely, our team will organize a shuttle at the end of the trip to the destinated city specific to wach itinerary.  Usually the group will be brought to the destination by noon on the last day. 

Be sure to consult your trip-specific itinerary for detailed arrival and departure information. Please email us at info@adamsandpeabody.com if you have any questions.

What do we do?

all the fun

Simply put, we have a lot of fun.

Adams& Peabody runs distinctive active travel vacations. By “distinctive” we mean special itineraries unique to our skill set and experience. By “active travel” we mean anything that gets you outside and moving whether that is by bike, by foot or by fork and spoon.

Our cooking itineraries involve a lot of eating and drinking – and a lot of walking! They aren’t just culinary itineraries, but cultural and historic journys through some of Europe’s richest countryside. You can expect cooking lessons, wine tastings, truffle hunting, and exploring the medieval centers of old-world-Europe.

Our cycling adventures take you to new heights. On the bicycle you can go as fast – or as slow – as you please. Stop whenever you wish to take pictures and chat with the locals. Each bicycle adventure has an athletic level attached to it (Beginner, Advanced and Expert) to give you an idea of its difficulty.

If you have any questions regarding our itineraries please contact us at info@adamsandpeabody.com.

Cooking Trips

For our cooking departures, bring your appetite.

We spend most of our days walking through the medieval centers of small villages. Cobblestone streets and narrow stairways require a comfortable shoe, adapt for uneven surfaces. In the evening, smart apparel is needed as we have dinner in Michelin-starred restaurants.  Otherwise the days are warm and the nights are cool. A bathingsuit may be necessary depending on the destinaton you choose. refer to your trip specific itinerary for further details.
