Food & Drink

There are a number of food & drink tours available which run at different times throughout the year. Two of our favourite picks are:

• Brewerism Brewery Tours which offer a guided route around multiple breweries and drinking establishments. Unlike a standard tour, this multi-site approach gives insight into different types and styles of beer, and also gives you a true flavour of brewing in the area. There are multiple options to choose from...
• Curry & Colonels Guided Walking Tour explores Cheltenham's links with an Indian Raj during the Regency Period, culminating in a cookery masterclass and dish sampling at the East India Cafe. The tour combines some of the best things about Cheltenham and is running monthly throughout the year...

The Romantic Road takes you out of Cheltenham and into the surrounding countryside, with the option to do one or two routes or both. It's a fantastic drive, with the option for classic car hire or chauffeur driven luxury too!
