I need help starting a travel tour operator company to mexico specializing in culinary tours?

I’m looking for contacts so I can organize these tours, I need chefs/regional cooks and lodging contacts. I’d like to keep it true to the cuisines of the regions, and would like to eventually have tours to all six of Mexico’s culinary regions (including Oaxaca, Veracruz, etc) and later expand to the Caribbean.
I have a few contacts already, but the more I can get, the better. I plan to offer two types, one for people who just want to have some cooking classes in authentic Mexican cuisine and learn about the culture and area and another for chefs and culinary students with a more intense focus on learning the regional cuisines.
Can anyone help out there! Thanks. Terri
The Food in the Yucatan Penninsula is very unigue.There are many authentic or as we say typical places to eat including the very low cost country kitchens. That serve excellent food. You can also stay at some very great BandBs here and connect with them for reasonable lodging.
I suggest you try some REAL Mexico message boards where you can actually have a conversation about what it is you want. I have a number of them listed on my links page

Rather than ranting about my ‘answer’ here … you might have asked if I knew any boards with cooking sections, knew any cooks, knew any schools …. etc
Need some good food to improve that attitude maybe
