About Us
Louise P.Bordeaux was a charming city, full of history, beautiful parks and very walkable. Many great restaurants, shops and friendly people. I loved everything about it.
Cathy S.All the fun and none of the hassle. Everything worked! As others must have said, the trip was just exceptional.
Larry A.This tour met or exceeded our expectations in all regards. Although we lived in Switzerland for several years, we thoroughly enjoyed the exposure to many new sights and a more in depth understanding of the history and culture. Joy, Mladen and the tour guides were all outstanding and made this an experience we will long remember. Joy’s detailed preparation before and her hands on involvement during our trip where beyond our expectations. We cannot offer a more positive evaluation of her role in making this a fabulous experience!!
Marie F.Joy did an exceptional job designing and executing our trip. Her comprehensive attention to detail provided everything from knowledgeable local guides, special wine and dining experiences, to making our hotel check-in experiences seamless and easy. I think that she did an exceptional job choosing the personnel, the special experiences, the hotels, the driver, the guides....which resulted in an experience that we would not have been able to achieve without her savvy skill. The Sommelier Mladen is a rock star! His smile, laughter and warm personality added to our enjoyment of the trip. His knowledge and wine selection at our evening meals were definitely value added to our experience. It was a very special experience. Again, many aspects would not have been possible without Joy's planning and execution. We made many wonderful memories and will treasure those moments of awe, delight and laughter forever.
John M.We had experiences and saw things we would have never known to exist if we had tried this on our own.
Roger C.A trip you must take. The country was clean and the people were very pleasant. The scenery is breathtaking. Joy's attention to detail was remarkable. She always listens to our suggestions regarding the trip. Will be travelling with her again.
Chan P.This trip provided the top of the line in every way: food, wineries, accommodations, guides and personalization.
Peter C.Mladen and Joy did a fantastic job, showing us so many aspects of Bulgaria, helped to realize the beauty of the country. The trip was most beneficial because of the personal stories including what life was like under the Communists. Wines were wonderful from the many SB, Roses to Malbecs. Again much enhanced by Mladen’s knowledge of both wines and country. Great variety, quality, and quantity. Wineries were fun & educational. From the first meal with all eyes popping after seeing our first Bulgarian salad to our last meal food was great. Food experience went from everyday Bulgarian to Fusion fantastic choices. Our guide Kamen was extremely knowledgeable and was a perfect addition to the group. I told friends prior to the trip that I would come back as an expert on Bulgaria, little did I know how true that was thanks to Kamen. Loved it all: villages, cities, resorts, monasteries - all with their individual stories. Museums gave new education on Bulgarian history. I can't say enough about the visit and the performance at the School of Bulgarian Folklore & Dance. Wow!
Excellent value for money. The trip exceeded my expectations. Because Bulgaria is still an undiscovered country, this trip enlightens you on all aspects of culture, history, beauty, and an understanding of the people. Great immersion into wines, foods, and understanding of what living under communism was like.
Boo M.Take a trip of a lifetime.....exceptional wines, exceptional experiences, exceptional guides.
Pia M.I felt like I was in a dream of pure magic. Every need was well taken care of above my expectations. Mladen was what made the trip so special. His high energy, sense of humor, knowledge of fine wine, food and life is what I love the most about the trip.
Jane A.This wonderful trip has special Swiss wines pared with the scenery of a life time enjoyed by van, train, chairlift and boat. Don’t miss this spectacular week of vino and views!
Chris V.We did not really know what to expect. The food, the wine, the truffle hunting, the cooking class were all terrific. Not too much time spent on the bus. The private tour of the Vatican was so inspiring and wonderful. It would be very hard to replicate this trip as an individual. This is a unique experience to meet some great new people, taste some delicious wine and to learn more about them. This is a trip anyone who has not been to Italy can enjoy as can people like us who have already visited Italy numerous times.
