ITALY: Jude H. - Armadale, Victoria

As a textile artist, I found this Italian Textile and Artisan Tour nothing short of spectacular. Visiting and staying in some of the smaller towns in Puglia, Umbria and Tuscany, the changing countryside along with the food and the wineries we went to were nothing short of fantastic. The third and fourth generation artisans we met long the way told fascinating family histories but being able to see their work in progress whilst onsite in their historical studios was truly inspiring. I have now done 4 trips with Glenda and she never ceases to amaze me with her thoroughness to ensure we have remarkable accommodation, the most interesting places to eat and drink, uses great local guides that know everything including where the next bank is to where the best bargains can be found – so 10 out of 10 Glenda!
