We love local cuisine and always look for the most authentic regional flavours, but in the field the group's appetite comes first. In the morning there is breakfast at the hotel or we take it with us, and in the evenings we often dine in local tavernas, trying traditional dishes with an emphasis on home cooking, protein and fresh vegetables. The birds won't wait until we reach a restaurant, so during peak observation hours we sometimes have lunch right on the route as a field picnic: hearty sandwiches, salads, fruit and snacks. Yes, there is a little more bread on such days than usual, but sometimes that is a compromise for great finds. If you are vegetarian or vegan, or have any dietary restrictions, please let us know before the tour so we can arrange special diets.
