While you wait for information needed for the upcoming trips in 2026 here are a couple reviews from previous trips:
As advertised, this was about "the real Italy" and we met existing craftsmen and women, carrying on their trades, often started by family, with tremendous pride. This was a highlight for me, more than ruins and churches, as expected on a trip to Italy. It's about the people I meet that makes my life full of joy. The food was excellent and plentiful, and the wine was always abundant and perfect for the occasion.

The group was small and I now have some new friends that I shall cherish for a long time. Deb and Dave were great and had everything planned out so it was nothing but smooth sailing. Thank you Deb & Dave for a trip of a life time, I shall be looking forward to more.

We felt like we were discovering Italy with a group of friends, not a tour group. The WhatsApp was a great idea and so practical for all of us to stay in touch and share pictures. The group meetings before the trip were indispensable, especially for setting expectations on what was expected of us (BOB)!

Deb/Dave:you have really done a beautiful job putting all this together! Wonderful experience! Thank you. It was so hard to return to reality...
A wonderful journey. Thank you for such a relaxing and informative adventure!
Very well run tour. You guys met expectations and readiy went beyond whatever was needed to make us feel comfortable. The format of "going local" and the affordable price made the whole experience very attractive to try again and maybe frequently!
