About us

“Our trip to Puglia, organized by Michi, was an unforgettable blend of vibrant local flavors and hidden coastal gems. Every meal, from fresh orecchiette to exquisite regional wines, was a delightful reminder of Italy’s passion for life and culinary artistry. One of the most memorable experiences was spending sun-soaked afternoons swimming in the Adriatic and enjoying a scenic boat tour, where we couldn’t help but sing "Volare" at the top of our lungs. And how could we not mention the incredible sunset dinner set in a vineyard, the scenic bicycle tour, and all the charming strolls through rustic towns? A lifetime of memories in one trip!”

“Michi has the wonderful ability of bringing people together for incredible experiences in locations both far and near. Our experience in Puglia was no exception – amazing locales, fun activities and good food and wine. What a gift to be a part of these adventures!”

"Traveling with Michi and Sarah has been nothing short of extraordinary. On our first European adventure, Sarah expertly arranged our time in the south of France—where we savored exquisite wines, enjoyed scenic vineyard picnics, and relished fresh oysters paired with crisp white wine—while Michi led us through an inspiring exploration of Barcelona’s iconic sites and culinary treasures. Every detail was thoughtfully arranged, ensuring a seamless and delightful experience.

Our 2024 Italian journey further showcased Michi’s passion for travel. From Rome’s historic landmarks and a fun scooter tour on Ischia to an immersive day-by-day adventure through Puglia with 38 friends, Michi flawlessly coordinated every element. Her ability to accommodate diverse needs—from varying food preferences to lodging and transportation—combined with her warmth, professionalism, and infectious humor, truly exceeded our expectations. Thank you, Michi and Sarah, for curating such incredible journeys. We eagerly await our next adventure together!"

“It takes a rare talent to plan a trip for such a large group of diverse people from all over the country (and world for that matter) and bring them together to experience and enjoy one of Italy’s most beautiful and historic regions: Puglia. Michi Suzuki knows people, food and places. That combination makes magic happen. Somehow, over forty of us converged on Puglia, woke every morning to a new adventure, and fell in love with the people and sights of Puglia. This is all thanks to Michi and the relationships she developed with everyone from boat captains to baristas to chefs and bus drivers. 

At the end of the trip we left feeling satisfied, yet wanting to return sometime in the future - the signs of a perfect vacation/celebration.”

“Besides my wedding, the trip that Michi planned to Puglia, Italy, was the best experience of my life. From the planned events, meals cooked to perfection and every moment in between with friends was filled with joy.”

“My trip to Puglia was an incredible experience thanks to our incredible organizer, Michi, who arranged for an amazing Trulli Villa, as our home base, which included a full service morning espresso and breakfast bar. Daily excursions included trips to hill towns and seaside villages in the region, all of which were charming, had amazing local specialties and were filled with quality artisan shops. The most memorable part of our trip was an electric bike tour that took us through the countryside outside of Locorotondo with a local guide who shared the history and traditions of the region – a not-to-be missed experience for sure!
