Experience the magic of village Italy

Exclusive Personalised Small-Group Tours

Discover the real la dolce vita in Abruzzo, Italy’s little known and less travelled region in the eastern Apennines stretching down to the Adriatic coast, just 3 hours east of Rome.

Personalised and led by Luciana Masci and Michael Howard, each tour offers exclusive small-group travel (max 12), with the attention to detail and passion for Abruzzo that only an Abruzzese can offer.

Stay in restored villas and farmhouses in the countryside or in beautifully-appointed apartments in a medieval village.

Travel in air-conditioned comfort in a luxury private minibus… the glorious countryside with endless vineyards and ancient olive groves will surprise and delight. Meet the friendly local growers and skilful producers of fine wine, exquisite fruity olive oils and delicious pecorino cheeses.

Experience the pleasure of making your own fresh pasta and pastries with local Abruzzese women. And enjoy the rare treat of an exclusive Italian musical performance with an international tenor and local musicians.

Visit remote hilltop villages, where wonderful ancient traditions and rich folklore abide or tread the ancient paths of the alpine shepherds with a gentle guided walk through the picturesque Maiella or Gran Sasso National Park.

Take time to sit back, relax and watch the world go by as has been done for centuries before…
