ur Belize trip was coordinated by Karolina Guilcapi, the owner and founder of Sated Ventures Tours and Travel in Palm Coast, Florida. Over the years, I have found that traveling with a partner that is virtually by your side during the entire journey is invaluable when it comes to the comfort and enjoyment that you can experience from an international trip. As Sated Ventures’ founder and destination specialist, Karolina has proven to be the best of the best. She has been offering custom private tours since 2006, where her company curates private itineraries with the traveler in mind, generally specializing in trips for those folks who are lovers of travel and food. With over 40 partner offices around the world, she offers an abundance of destinations to choose from, including the Belize trip that we just completed. She customizes them to each individual traveler, then adds flavor to every trip through tasting sessions, cooking classes and other hands-on experiences that would enhance any vacation. “I am a culinary anthropologist. I believe that food connects us all,” says Karolina. “As I travel the world, I often do not understand the language, and sometimes find the culture confusing. But when I sit around a table and break bread with the local communities, I feel connected, at home, and satisfied. Chasing that feeling is the reason I founded Sated Ventures — a boutique travel company that specializes in private trips with a focus on food.” Karolina takes an active approach and tirelessly promotes with her clients. With a background from Johnson & Wales University, a school dedicated to food and travel, she has been deeply involved in the growth of the tourism industry. Latin American trips continue to be her expertise, as she travels there multiple times a year to grow relationships with
her guides, drivers, local chefs and the experts who in turn spoil her guests. Her clients go to her with an idea of where and when they want to visit, and Sated Ventures curates each itinerary from scratch based on their needs, interests and budget. Additionally, the company often adds culinary touches such as tastings, cooking classes, reservations at top restaurants and more. If there is a destination you have always wanted to not only visit but experience, then Karolina and her Sated Ventures team will get you there. Sated Ventures is the perfect fit for Florida Country Magazine readers ready to explore at the next level. Did you know that Argentina features dude-ranch vacations that rival those of the American west? Or that Iceland has more horses per capita than any other country in the world? Or that you can have brunch on a train after hiking the Inca Trail in Peru? Sated Ventures will deliver not just a tour for clients to book, but an experience that they will never forget.
