Our 2027 James Beard Foundation culinary cruises are open for booking - five voyages, five chefs, each pairing a JBF-recognized culinary voice with the region that shaped their cooking, sailing July through November 2027. Every voyage includes a market excursion with the chef, a live demonstration and a chef-hosted dinner. With fewer than 350 guests aboard, your clients can ask the chef their own questions, from picking the freshest catch to recreating a dish at home, and get to know the person behind the cooking.

The Best Seat in The Kitchen

Imagine exploring a local market alongside a James Beard Foundation–recognized chef, choosing sun-warmed produce and the morning’s catch, then tasting those ingredients at dinner that evening.

That’s what makes our 2027 chef sailings different. With fewer than 350 guests aboard, you’re close enough to watch, ask questions and learn the techniques behind each dish. And every featured dish the chef creates stays on the Windstar menu, so their influence continues long after their sailing ends.

For more than a decade, Windstar has brought James Beard Foundation–recognized chefs aboard to connect great food with the places you’re exploring. In 2027, each chef takes you through a region that has influenced their cooking.

Book and receive a Complimentary All-Inclusive Package with gratuities, unlimited Wi-Fi and select beer, wine and cocktails by the glass, plus a reduced $300 deposit on voyages.
