Abstract

Tourism development contributes to the development of countries and regions. Gastronomic tourism, organization of culinary master courses, inclusion of special meals in the tourist offer can contribute to the diversification, originality and competitiveness of regional tourist offers. The aim of the study is to examine culinary master workshops as a gastronomic tourist product. The research shows that master culinary courses are offered mainly in the capital, their supply is limited in other regions, and information about organized master classes is missing.
