A gentle breeze...
Â
drifts through the olive trees as the sun begins to dip behind the rolling hills, casting a warm golden light over your private villa. The transformative session has just ended, and the group is quiet, still absorbing the powerful breakthroughs and emotional clarity they’ve experienced this afternoon. The energy is calm yet electric as your clients linger in the aftermath of deep personal work, sharing soft smiles and knowing glances.
You step out onto the terrace, where the long dining table has been elegantly set, surrounded by the natural beauty of the Italian countryside. The scent of fresh basil, garlic, and slow-roasted vegetables drifts from the kitchen, signaling that dinner is almost ready. You can hear the gentle clinking of wine glasses being filled, as the villa’s private chef puts the finishing touches on a meal made entirely from the land around you.
Â
 As your group gathers around the table, there’s a sense of ease and connection. The day’s session has created new bonds, and now, under the open sky, the conversations flow effortlessly. The sun melts into the horizon, painting the sky with hues of pink and orange, as plates of freshly made pasta, garden vegetables, and local cheeses are passed around. The food, like the day, feels simple yet profound—each bite nourishing both body and soul.
Laughter begins to bubble up again as the wine flows, and you look around the table at your clients, seeing not just the people who arrived days ago but individuals transformed by the experience. There’s a lightness in the air, a shared understanding that this retreat is far more than just an escape—it’s a journey of deep inner work, connection, and lasting change.

Meet Your Host
Kerri Wood - Tour Director
15 years ago, I experienced a defining moment while standing on a rooftop terrace in Rome. Gazing over the eternal city, surrounded by ancient history and vibrant life, I felt an undeniable sense of belonging.
This profound connection inspired me to return to the U.S. with a vision: to start a company that would enable others to explore the country’s wonders without the pitfalls I encountered, including doing too much, waiting in line for hours, and wasting time and money on boring sights.
Before starting my travel business, I was a coach and hosted transformative retreats. This unique experience gave me deep insight into what it takes to create meaningful, life-changing journeys.Â
My mission became to ensure that my clients could fully enjoy, relax, and immerse themselves in the extraordinary Italian culture.
With meticulous attention to detail, I personally craft each tour to fulfill my clients' dreams, ensuring an unforgettable journey for every traveler.
I select guides and team members based on a harmonious blend of passion and their unique perspectives, enriching the tours with depth, insight, and a spirit of adventure.
This thoughtful approach guarantees an authentic, engaging, and seamlessly enjoyable Italian escape.Â
Now, I get to combine my love for retreats with my love for Italy by helping others experience this beautiful country in ways that are both immersive and profound.
