We will be staying at the Locanda of Giancarlo Polito, an acclaimed Italian Chef and childhood friend, with him will be cooking, wine tasting and much more.
Hi, my name is Antimo and I will be your trip leader. I am an expert in experiential travel and wellness, I am also a chef and leadership development consultant. It will be my pleasure to share these passions with you. Along with the famous chef Giancarlo Polito who lives in Montone, Umbria, we will facilitate a wonderful cultural experience and delight you palate every step of this journey.
