Likewise, a recent survey by the Travel Industry Association of America, co-sponsored by the NRA, shows that the phenomenon of culinary tourism is taking root. According to this, 40% of leisure travelers say they travel to know or enjoy unique and memorable gastronomic experiences. The visit to a restaurant with family, friends or travel companions was described as an important gastronomic activity. International travelers are an important part of this group, a good prospect if you take into account that this year international arrivals are expected to increase by about 5%, to reach 54.1 million.
