"I arrived back home earlier this week after an absolutely delightful time in France. Thank you both so very much for your part in making my dream a reality. Essential Provence was just so fantastic. It more than lived up to my expectations.

I am in awe of you both. The dedication and attention to detail that you put into the organisation of the Tour certainly did not go unnoticed. I can only imagine the many hours of back ground work that you put into the finished product, and the enthusiasm and your love of your work certainly has paid off. I have been singing your praises. I can see why many of your clients re-book!"

"Italy was just so full of everything...different from Provence... but so wonderful in every way. We hope to join you on another trip, maybe 2009!?

It's like travelling with friends when we go with you and you always pick out some pretty amazing places. I still tear up when I look at the picture of the library ceiling in the Siena Cathedral...that was probably the highlight of Tuscany for me. But, it was all fantastic!!!"

 ~ Mary Ann & Wayne Angleberger, Mount Solon USA

"We wanted to say thank you to the best tour operators! Of course we had a fabulous time but your tours are much more than that, especially for what you bring alive for each individual - we really felt that!"

"Once again a very big Thank You for making our tour so special. I loved every minute of it and have a heart full of wonderful memories with me every day.

The passion, love and thought you put into our daily activities made it a tour of a lifetime. Thank you once again for a trip that surpassed all my expectations of a long held dream.

My husband is very keen to make a trip so I hope we will meet again in the not too distant future."

"I went to Bali on a whim, hoping for lots of pampering and some new experiences. What I didn’t realise was that my heart and soul would be pampered as much as my body and that the new experiences would change the way I look at my life. Thank you Robbi for helping me to open the door. And thank you to all of the beautiful Bali Retreat women for standing beside me as I stepped through. Every woman should have this experience."
