Our Story

Next stop: The world!

Nearly two decades ago, we began by offering culinary tours in Milwaukee, WI, to share the stories of Milwaukee’s German, Italian, Polish, and Irish immigrants. We eventually expanded our tour offerings, first to Chicago and then throughout the Great Lakes region. Our fanbase of tour attendees has grown quickly, with many returning and asking, “Can we travel with you?” This led to the creation of what we now call Travel Deliciously.

Our first international trips included excursions to Poland and Cuba. Domestically, we explored the Bourbon Trail of Kentucky and the Real Housewives of Amish Country in Indiana. As we’ve grown, so has the list of destinations we offer. We cater not only to individual travelers but also provide private tours for corporate incentive trips, group travelers, and family reunions.

As we build itineraries, food remains at the core of what we offer. We pride ourselves on designing itineraries that allow our travelers to see the bucket list sights while delving into the local culture through its cuisine and food experiences. We offer intimate encounters, small groups, and delicious excursions. Our activities include cooking and baking classes, opportunities to catch dinner with local fishermen, and the chance to travel with local chefs. This is how we Travel Deliciously, and we invite you to join us on these once-in-a-lifetime adventures.

Our Story of Unique Discoveries: Decades ago, our journey began when our founder, Theresa Nemetz, had an unforgettable dining experience at a quaint restaurant overlooking the sea in Positano, Italy. The restaurant owner made his rounds among the guests, joyfully exclaiming “Donne Felici” to each table, enhancing the evening with a spirit of heartfelt local hospitality. That moment of genuine connection and joy is precisely what we strive to replicate in every trip, making each journey with us uniquely memorable.
