“I learned to say ‘cheers’ in six languages. I forgot them all by the end of the trip but apparently you can clink glasses anywhere in the world and people get the message. Universal diplomacy through beer!”

"Our guide kept saying, ‘just one more bar for the road.’ My legs gave up but my spirit was thriving. This tour taught me resilience…and the joys of midnight tapas. Great drinks, great laughs and great cardio too walking between so many bars!”

I joined solo but by the end I had 12 new friends, 400 new photos and absolutely no idea where my shoe went. The guides told me to pace myself. I didn’t. Still survived. Would risk it again.

“History lessons were never this fun at school. I can’t remember exact dates but I can tell you exactly which wine pairs with Roman ruins. Honestly, I learned more in three glasses than in three years of history class.”
