Florence
Three unique tours devised for the discerning client, planned in detail, but require the right partner travel agents with access to client base.
The firsts two tours are in Tuscany and Sicily, which are very special and different. Unlike the usual itineraries, which cover the guide book sites, these tours additionally take you into great houses not open to the public. Not only are the places to be visited intimately known, but in most instances so are the owners of the palazzos, friends and acquaintances of Cristina Madden who will be your tour leader in Sicily.
The third is not really a tour as it is based throughout at the sumptuous and privately owned Villa Michaela, and combines forays into Florence and the towns of Tuscany for sightseeing and shopping, with cooking demonstrations of the Tuscan cuisine at the Villa Michaela, and enjoying its setting, grounds and amenities.
Grosvenor Guide Services Ltd, however, are not travel agents or tour operator. We have devised the product, but we need partners who will find the suitable clients, assemble the tours and arrange flights as appropriate. Naturally, if travelling from afar, as for instance from the USA, a stop-over in London may be desired, in which case GGS will be very happy to arrange a programme of acclimatisation.
Either way, Grosvenor Guide Services will be responsible for all aspects of the tours once clients have arrived at the assembly points.
