- In
the year 2004, while working for a big company in
corporate America, I decided to leave behind the
successful career path before me and head back to my
roots on the shores of the Adriatic Sea to build a
dream that I had.
-
- As
I've always loved entertaining guests and sharing my
passion of good food and wine with friends and family,
I decided to take the dream a step further. Why not
make new friends all over the world and share this
exquisite experience with them as well? I've created a
warm, welcoming, family atmosphere where guests can
really feel at ease and have a real Italian experience
without the hassles of today's commercial tourism
industry. The experience that I've gained in working
in corporate America, paired with my inborn passion
for hospitality, I believe, makes me understand the
expectations of foreign tourists. That is why I
decided to be in this venture.
-
- We
are different from other food & wine tours in that
we have our own palace, our own chefs, our own
transportation for guests, and the staff are always
the same friendly people that will treat you like
family. Our groups, by choice, are very small (max. 8 people), so we will get to know each other
with ease.
Our palace has only 6 rooms, so your group will have
the whole Palazzo Tour d'Eau to themselves, with the
entire staff dedicated only to you. It's an exclusive
way of giving a special service. It's all about you
and nobody else.
-
- As opposed to
the usual restaurant/hotel kitchen that gives a very cold
feeling, we have built a special, modern demonstration kitchen
exclusively for your cooking classes, in order to make them cozy
and comfortable. We want you to enjoy your vacation and learn a
few cooking tricks, all the while relaxing. You
will learn to cook special recipes that are delicious
and can be easily made again at home. When you go
home, you will feel comfortable and excited about
showing off what you've learned and cooking these
special dishes to impress your guests. We will be
using fresh ingredients that can easily be found at
your local grocery store.
Special
tours will be arranged around the region of Abruzzo,
which has so much to offer. We will not use a
professional tour guide because we believe that you can
get that anywhere. We, on the other hand, are going to
take you to the special places that we would take our
friends when they come and visit from abroad. We take
pride in being good hosts. It gives us great
satisfaction. |
