Culinary Travel
Leisure Group Travel feels your pain and our February issue explores a multitude of locales that are ready to serve you when you’re ready to hit the road. We spotlight a variety of culinary trails across the country including the Buffalo Wing Trail in Buffalo, the Cajun Bayou Food Trail in Louisiana and the Green Chile Cheeseburger Trail in New Mexico to name a few. LGT also chows down on scrumptious pies in Pennsylvania and pays a visit to vintage supper clubs in the Midwest.
LGT even gets outdoors in Mississippi, enjoys urban adventures in Utah and our 2021 Religious Travel Planning Guide will inspire you to create meaningful travel programs for your community of faith.
