combined with other activities, for example whilst out exploring a sight in the
morning the group may catch a fish and Chris will incorporate the preparation of
that into the next meal. The
cooking school part is as hand on or off as guests wish, and for those less
interested they can sit back and enjoy the company, views and good food without
getting too involved. Take an air tour from Melbourne direct to Faraway Bay and
then return. Make it an adventure for say 6 - 8 clients
