Food, wine & walkingin Northern Italy

Our love of Northern Italy is nowhere more exemplified than on this luxury food, wine and walking tour from Milan to Venice via the magnificent Dolomites.

Italy is one of the most endearing countries in the world and the north of Italy is a standout with its majestic Dolomites mountain range, shimmering northern lakes and spectacular cities of Milan and Venice. The region offers immense natural beauty and diversity. When you combine this with its stunning art, architecture and outstanding food and wine, and luxury accommodation, you’re looking at a very enticing travel destination.

This unique luxury journey designed and led by our Director, Jennifer Wilkinson is not only magnificent for its connection with nature but deeply rewarding with spectacular walks, special winery visits and dining in outstanding restaurants.

This 13-day Italian food, wine and walking tour commences in elegant Milan, continuing to the Franciacorta wine region, Lake Garda, the magnificent Dolomites and the charming Prosecco region. Our final destination in this luxury tour in Italy is the inimitable city of Venice where we stay in a beautiful luxury palazzo facing the grand canal.
