Join Us! An Update on This Year's Upcoming Programs.

Bring your willingness to explore and to learn--on the road--with your hands in the pasta, scooping spring water from a fountain in the Spanish hills, collecting chestnuts for soup, sharing a meal at sunset in a quiet bay. Use your "spoon of goodness" to taste the wonders of the Mediterranean.

"Thank you for a glorious trip-it was splendid all around. Your first class treatment was grand and very kind. Jnane Tamsna the perfect respite, and Essouira and Imlil 'must see' experiences. Thank you for all the planning, juggling and mastermind behind the logistics. It was such a treat to land in Marrakech to be swept away for ten days of bliss!" ~ Lucy Penfield (Morocco 2010)

In 2009, Ruth Reichl joined Peggy in Morocco for her television show with PBS and Gourmet Magazine, "Adventures with Ruth." Watch the full episode here.

 Sailing and Savoring the Amalfi Coast

June 18-25


Recently featured in Tasting Table's Best Epicurean Dream Trips of 2011:

"Join Peggy Markel, consummate traveler and Slow Food devotee, aboard a luxurious sailboat making its way along Italy's Amalfi Coast. Each day, the boat docks at a new town, where guests will learn about the local cuisine (baked whole fish, limoncello) and take in the gorgeous coastline while giving the captain a hand with the sails."


"We can't stop talking about the trip and how special it was. Peggy definitely delivered the 'local flavor' and gave us so many unique experiences and opportunities that we could have only enjoyed because of her and her connections." ~ Jane Stweard (Amalfi 2009)

"The highlight for me was those rich-yet simple-days around Casa Ana, cooking, eating, wandering, and meeting various village inhabitants; they made such a vivid, treasured impression on me that I will carry the place in the deep tissues of my heart ... until I return again!"
~ Gabrielle Edison (Spain 2010)
