Just like the P2P travel website, BonAppetour is designed to make it possible to become or find a host who will prepare a home-cooked meal. With its branding, BonAppetour specifically targets travelers who are on the lookout for [authentic cultural experiences](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/private-dining-event) that can easily be delivered through food and entertaining with a lively host.
