May 1-12, 2012, Dreams come true, May in Italy: Food, wine, hiking, and a dash of culture: a tour of Italy for women only.
Join my friends the Good News Girlz as they explore three beautiful regions of Italy. Start in the Piedmont, with visits to wineries in Barolo and Barbaresco, the king and queen of Italian wines; Truffles, homemade pasta, and a wealth of savory dishes will make you feel like royalty, too. Next to the Cinque Terre, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, where we’ll hike, take a sunset tapas cruise along the coast, and enjoy a hands-on cooking class with Rosanna. Our special tour of Verona, with walks along Lake Garda, and an Agriturismo stay highlight our visit to the Veneto. Women of all ages and physical ability will enjoy the beauty of this trip that’s a little off the usual tourist path. Pack some good walking shoes and a big appetite, a sense of adventure and come with us to Italy!
The Spirit of Yorkshire and the Lake District. SOLD OUT!
May 22, 2012 - June 1, 2012 From the rugged Yorkshire moors, home to the Bronte sisters to the lush Lake District, brought to life by Beatrix Potter. We will experience it all as we visit exquisite homes and gardens in this romanticized part of Britain. This is the North of England, Andria’s home country.

Our tours are designed to give you a deeper appreciation of life in Britain. We offer you the opportunity to meet a variety of local people with whom you share interests in common such as horticulture, golf, love of food and wine.
The hotels we patronize are all exceedingly comfortable with a distinctly British flavour. Each hotel is personally selected by Andria and offers friendly and efficient service, all creature comforts and, above all, excellent restaurants.
It is our objective that your trip proves memorable and serves as a time filled with new experiences and laughter. We want you to return completely relaxed with a true feeling for the history of the country you have visited and with new friends with whom you share interests in common. STANDARD DELUXE CLASS
