About Us
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.
James P.A great trip and wonderful experience! Wines and food were great! The service can be slow. But to be honest, a lot better than I expected. The guide Kamen was outstanding !!!!! Very knowledgeable and he read the group’s interest well. A well thought thru trip in all aspects. A trip I could never do on my own. Fun group. Excellent value for money.
Daniel P.It's a must go if you can make this trip. A once in a lifetime!
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.
John M.We had experiences and saw things we would have never known to exist if we had tried this on our own.
Deanna P.Joy, the trip was magnificent! You and Mladen did a perfect job. I am grateful.
Tom S.Best wine trip I've ever been on. We had an excellent time. Mladen was an excellent host. It was a great treat to get to visit Mouton and Margaux. We also really loved Chateau Kirwan and the excellent lunch of Preserved Duck Parmentier. Our time with the winemaker in the vineyards at Chateau Smith Haut Lafitte was one of the highlights of the trip for me. I thought the guide Karin did a great job.
John M.A wonderful cultural experience in becoming familiar with Bulgaria and its history. A very, very impressive guide. The service was great and the attitude was even better. Excellent value for money. This trip should be a must if we are ever going to understand what other people have gone through in their lives as a result of politics, wars, education, etc. We saw an unbelievably beautiful country with an abundance of natural resources that have been badly used by political programs. It is an eye-opener.
Louise P.I would recommend highly and not hesitate to travel with Mladen & Joy again and this wonderful group who I can now call my friends. We laughed always, drank and ate fine foods every day and experienced beautiful parts of Italy. Love the truffle hunt, the cooking class, the dinner with Salvatore Ferragamo. The Sistine Chapel was an unbelievable experience. Many thanks for the trip of a lifetime!!!! It was positively the most wonderful travel experience I have ever had. Every detail was taken care of with worry free travel for all. Made friends for life!
Peter M.Joy is extremely professional and has a great attention to detail for the benefit of providing a luxury client experience. This was a magical trip, scenery, food, wine, accommodations superior!
Steve P.The winery visits appealed to guests of widely varying knowledge regarding wine, but you must be interested in learning about wine to enjoy this in-depth quality exposure to the industry. Bordeaux is an extremely charming city, and both hotels were great. Overall, a great trip that exceeded expectations.
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.
