Local food, the first link

Local food is always the first link between the holidaymaker and life on the spot. Teach them to discover the typical culinary specialties of your region. Bring them to a popular restaurant to discover everyday food. They will always appreciate this friendly introduction.

They will then be able to try other dishes on their own in other local restaurants with much less apprehension. Local food is always the first point of immersion in local life.

Teach them the first words

The language barrier is often a barrier to communicating with locals. A few words learned in the local language are enough to break the ice. Hello, thank you, goodbye, how are you, yes, no, check please… are the first basic words you have to write them, with a bit of phonetics. They will be delighted with your help.

Then ask your guests if they have tried to communicate. Find out the results and if necessary teach them other words. Take this opportunity to also explain the rules of behavior, what to do better and what not to do. For example, in Southeast Asia, the Wai is the gesture of putting both hands on your chest to greet someone. However, it must be done in a certain way, not just any way. In your region, you surely have specific cultural specificities to introduce to your guests.

A visit to a local market

Whether it is food or not, a local market is always exciting to discover. It will be a highlight for your guests. Explain step by step the different stalls of the local merchants. If it is a food market, invite them to taste some original specialties. With the words you have taught them, they may be able to engage in a little conversation with the merchant. They will use this time to prepare to buy souvenirs, and they will be delighted with the attention you have given them.

Cooking classes

Your region offers specific dishes, great cakes… Why not propose to your holidaymakers to follow a local cooking course. The ladies will love it, because they will then reproduce at home the recipes they learned to impress their family or friends. Cooking classes offer a very enriching experience and for you it is a real plus to offer to your guests.

One additional idea

To help your holidaymakers discover your region, why not have a map of your city printed in a large frame, in your entrance hall, or in your living room. This is a very original idea that we found for you at custom maps. They also offer the possibility to create maps to completely cover a wall, made to measure.

Your vacationers will not fail to consult it frequently. Indicate your best addresses, the essential visits of your region.
