VANCOUVER, BC, CANADA, February 03, 2013 (Press-News.org) Whether it be a five-course French-inspired dinner accompanied by the lovely sounds of a string quartet, or a visit to Barcelona to enjoy Spanish olive oil tasting with a specialized culinary enrichment director, Expedia CruiseShipCenters will assist food lovers, whatever their taste, in finding their next dream cruise vacation.

With hit shows such as "Top Chef" setting sail on a luxurious culinary journey for a special "Top Chef: The Cruise" episode, themed cruises for food lovers are becoming more and more popular. If customers are interested in attending this inaugural "Top Chef" event aboard the Celebrity Constellation taking place from April 11-15, 2013, they can call or visit their local Expedia CruiseShipCenters for more details.

"Food is a wonderful way to connect with cultures across the world," said Ines Turus, owner of an Expedia CruiseShipCenters franchise location in Schaumburg, IL. "However, there are so many cuisine cruise options available for travelers that it can become an overwhelming experience without the guidance of a seasoned professional."

Expedia CruiseShipCenters has identified the following cruise lines that cater to the food aficionado:
Viking River Cruises: Viking River Cruises, the world's leading river cruise company, celebrates fine food with its signature "Taste of..." events.

These tours are uniquely designed for each port and provide guests with the opportunity to explore local food markets in small groups or side-by-side with an expert chef. These tours also include mini-lectures or demonstrations before returning to the ship's Bon Appetit Culinary Center for a cooking class that draws inspiration from the local market. Menus aboard the ships are crafted by Jacques Pepin, world-renowned master chef and Oceania's executive culinary director.

Holland America Line: A recognized leader in cruising, Holland America Line takes guests to exotic destinations around the world.
