Who organizes the event?

Melanie is excellent, not just as discussion leader and moderator, but also in many areas above and beyond that role: facilitator, mother hen, liaison with local resources, chief cat-herder, logistics genius, perennial friendly face.

“[Our leader] Gary added so much more to the trip than just discussion leading, Gary and [our other tour leader Scott] were endlessly polite, full of knowledge, and helpful at keeping track of the group, handling arrangements, assisting with luggage and other practicalities, and more.”

The hosted lunch at the Tomasi de Lampedusa palazzo was an absolute joy.
