About Us
Roger D. & Joanne B.The trip exceeded expectations — plenty of pleasant surprises popping up around the itinerary. This Bordeaux trip seems somewhat unique because of the reputation, long history, and 7000 Chateaux, and each of the properties we visited brought something new and different. Final evening was a glorious crescendo — the visit to Chateau Smith Haut Lafitte, wine tasting in the garden, the band playing authentic American music, and then the spectacular Michelin 2 star meal with a country flair — again, unforgettable. Many thanks to you, Mladen and your local partners for a most enjoyable trip.
David J.The Bordeaux experience exceeded my expectations. I really enjoyed the hotels, Chateau's visited as well as all the meals. We all booked dinners together (our expense) and that was a wonderful experience too with the other guests. I would go again!
kathleenJoy is so easy to work with and if very detail oriented. Professional and efficient.
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.
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.
Tom Moran, Chairman & CEO of Moran Wealth ManagementJoy, I want to thank you for organizing and leading such a memorable trip. The whole experience was incredible. You took care of every detail and made the us feel like part of your family. I can’t wait to travel with you & both again.
Cathy G.Your service, experience, enthusiasm, charm are all spectacular. You and Mladen both make the trip! Magical on all levels!
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!
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.
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.
Lisa G.This trip was well planned and seamlessly executed. It provided fabulous Italian experiences including not just truly amazing food and wine, but exploring hilltop villages, truffle farm, organic farm, and cheese making, all at the same time while making new friends from our club! Traveling together is just more fun! Also, there were many simple pleasures difficult to put value on - like not having to schlep luggage from place to place, but transported for us to the next hotel and placed in our room by the time we arrived! Job well done both Mladen and Joy!
Joe P.You don't have to do anything thing except come along for the fun. Everything is taken care of for you to make for a wonderful experience.
