PARMA + MODENA CULINARY TOUR

Join your local hosts Sonia & Benedetta from CulTour Italia for a slice of Italian life in the food-rich region that gifted the world with prosciutto and Parmigiano Reggiano. This trip focuses on niche selections of traditional products and exclusive visits with artisanal makers.

The “food valley” as it is also known, had been the agricultural heart of the Roman empire, as it is now for modern Italy. There are no less than 44 food products from the region that are protected and considered national treasures.

The City of Parma received the UNESCO title of “Creative City for Gastronomy” in 2015 and “Capital of Culture” in 2020. For a total of 6 nights, we home base 4 nights in Parma and spend 2 nights in the Emilian countryside, experiencing exclusive eno-gastronomic delights the area has to offer.

The trip is limited to 12 guests.

THE BALKAN PEAKS HIKING TRIP

Journey through the spectacular Balkan mountains and villages with our partners at Cedar Path Expeditions.

Explore the rugged wild beauty and glorious mountain peaks of the Western Balkans. We will hike along shepherd paths through mountain terrain in three countries- Albania, Kosovo, and Montenegro. Each morning will start with a mindfulness meditation before we head off to unveil breathtaking alpine vistas, crystal-clear lakes, waterfalls, and remote villages. Each night we will be immersed in the local culture while staying at charming mountain guesthouses with time for reflection and connection. This once inaccessible hidden treasure, promises us an authentic, off-the-beaten-path experience like no other.
