Meals on the routes

Good food — is half of the success of a trip. It gives us strength and mood for climbing volcanoes, walking and rafting. That's why we don't skimp on food: we budget 1.5-2 times more for food and chefs' labour than other companies. And we know that in Kamchatka you want not only to admire nature, but also to taste local delicacies, so we make sure to include fish and caviar in the menu. But at the same time, the organisation of meals itself depends on the type of tour or excursion.

On one-day trips and on tours with permanent accommodation at the hotel

Breakfasts

For tours we book hotels that have their own restaurant or cafe. Breakfast (set or buffet) is included in the price.

Lunches

On the day of trekking or climbing a volcano, it is best not to overeat, otherwise it will be hard to move. Each participant receives a personalised snack, balanced in nutrition and weight, before setting out on the route. It includes:

a hearty sandwich,
chocolate bar,
0.5 litres of water,
a mix of nuts and dried fruit,
an apple.

Upon returning to camp for lunch, participants are given individual lunchboxes, each includes:

meat or fish dish,
garnish,
2 types of salads,
dessert.

We also set up a table with a cut of fresh fish or meat, bread basket, sweets and hot tea.

There are separate lunch box meals for vegetarians and vegans. Please let us know in advance so that we can prepare them for you.

Dinners

There is practically no complex dinner in any hotel in Kamchatka, so we cannot organise it. You choose your own dinner from the menu of a cafe or restaurant to suit your tastes. The average check — 1000-2000 rubles without alcohol.

On multi-day tours

Some tours, such as «Legends of the North», «Volcanoes of Kamchatka» and «Bears, Volcanoes, Orcas», pass through remote natural sights, between which the group moves by car. On such tours we have a cook — he is engaged in full organisation of meals on the route. After the excursions, on your return to the base camp you always have a table with hot lunch waiting for you, and for the excursion itself each participant is prepared a snack.

Even on long journeys we can take quite a lot of food — there are no weight restrictions. But the menu is still prepared with due regard to storage conditions.

Breakfasts

On days when the group is staying in a hotel or guest house, the accommodation already includes a set breakfast.

On the active part of the routes in the stationary camps, the cook prepares a hot and nutritious breakfast (porridge, cheesecakes, pancakes, etc.) early in the morning to keep you full of energy before the radial excursions. The portions are large, but you can usually always ask for more.

Lunch

In stationary camps, the cook prepares lunches over a campfire or more often on a gas cooker.

On long journeys there is no possibility to deploy the kitchen and prepare a full hot lunch, so on the way we stop at a cafe, where you can choose dishes from the menu to your taste. If there are no settlements on the route, we organise a table with snacks and hot tea.

For daytime radial excursions each participant is given an individual snack — it can be eaten at any time. We usually serve hot tea with sweets in the middle of the day at a rest stop.
