Tour Highlights

These exclusive or unique events are designed to deepen your experience, taking you on an inspiring journey beneath the surface of local history, culture and traditions. What's more, these once-in-a-lifetime moments are often not available to a regular traveller. The following experiences are just a taste of what we have prepared especially for you.

Col d'Orcia in Montalcino

Visit Col d'Orcia in Montalcino, the home of Brunello, one of the most famous red wines in Italy. Delight in a tour of the estate gardens and the cellar, followed by an exclusive barrel tasting. You’ll then enjoy lunch in the estate’s villa, where farm-to-table products are paired with the estate’s wines.

Republic of Malta, the picturesque Casa Rocca Piccola in Valetta

Casa Rocca Piccola

Embark on a private tour of Casa Rocca Piccola, a 16th-century palace and family home in Valletta. You’ll be met by the owners who will share the rich history of their ancestral home. After the tour, enjoy a glass of prosecco and indulge in a tasting of local delicacies in the aristocratic garden.

Wine Tasting in Saint Tropez

Arrive at a family-owned vineyard and be welcomed by the owner. Embark on a guided behind-the-scenes tour of the estate, cellar and the barrel rooms. Indulge in a cocktail-style lunch in the beautiful grounds. Savour local provençal fare and sample the estate’s impressive array of wines. Afterwards, enjoy a game of pétanque, a ball game that originated in the south of France and is a derivation from the ancient sport of boules.
