We are delighted to invite you to join us on an inspirational and beautiful Grand Tour of Italian Classical Gardens from May 26th to June 5th, 2022. As most of you know, we are trained fashion designers with an obsession and passion for gardening. Nature, flowers and gardens have always been a huge source of inspiration in our design work, and now, we want to share our passion and knowledge with you!

We have curated and selected a series of our favourite Italian gardens in some of the most beautiful cities and settings in the world!

Our Highlights:

• Rome – Florence – Verona – the Italian lakes.
• The most romantic garden in the world – Il Giardino di Ninfa, near the Pope’s summer residence
• Villa D’Este, with its beautiful renaissance gardens and hundreds of spraying fountains
• The famous Medici Gardens of Florence
• Verona and the undiscovered treasure of Giardino Giusti
• After hours, exclusive tour of the Palazzo Borromeo gardens in Isola Bella, Lago di Maggiore
• The sensational gardens of Villa Carlotta and Villa Melzi on the shores of Lake Como
• Delicious food, high-end historic hotels and a small, intimate group of travellers.

This trip is perfect for fellow garden enthusiasts and learning more about gardening, design, culture, and history! We can’t wait to welcome you to this beautiful adventure!
