A warm welcome to all of the members of our Aroma Tours Newsletter in over 30 countries around the world.
Robbi and I trust that you have enjoyed a wonderful Festive Season and we wish you peace and prosperity in the year ahead.
We have enjoyed a much needed break with dear friends and family and now with hearts filled and batteries recharged, we are busily completing the preparations for our upcoming Aroma Tours.
Robbi and I feel truly blessed to be continuing to share our passion for the fabulous places and experiences that we love with delightful people from around the world.
We look forward to the pleasure of welcoming you to one of our wonderful small group Aroma Tours and we are thrilled to see that demand for both of our 2025 and 2026 seasons is the strongest we have ever seen!
This is always our busiest time of the year and we invite you to "Sieze the Day" to be sure of securing your place.
Without doubt, the main reason that we have grown and flourished over the years, is the on-going support that we have received from our past Aroma Travellers.
As we move beyond the difficulties of the last couple of years we are thrilled to see that they continue to make up more than 65% of our guests!
We would also like to give our heart-felt thanks to all of you who have continued to support us with your kind words and referrals over the years.
Robbi and I also greatly appreciate the wonderful words of thanks we have received from our guests - Guest Comments.
The enthusiasm for our Aroma Tours in 2025 has been outstanding with next year's tours now down to the last few vacancies.

Please note
Italy in autumn is a magnificent kaleidoscope of colourful landscapes, beautiful towns and villages, ripe grape vines, celebration and joy for life.
During our Aromas of Tuscany and Flavours of Italy tours we absorb the passion of the Italian lifestyle and savour the delightful flavours of the land's bounty, along with the rich cultural heritage evident in the art, architecture, historical sites, festivals, fashion, design, craftsmanship and unique approach to living.
Those of us who journey here are all destined to be transformed by the magic of Italy - feeling more joyful by the moment, speaking more enthusiastically, smiling broadly and even indulging in a bit of emphatic arm waving!
As well as couples and friends travelling together, we are regularly joined by solo travellers - mostly women, who appreciate being able to journey with liked minded people from around the world, without the need to do all the planning and take on the daunting task of touring by themselves.
Joining one of our small group tours is easy and we have already made all of the arrangements on your behalf to ensure that you have a delightful, stress-free holiday with the focus on having fun.
Having a ready-made group of friends to travel with, and us to take wonderful care of you is the way to go!
We have carefully crafted off-the-beaten-path itineraries that are the perfect balance of structure, experiences, details and free time to enjoy in your own way.
Robbi and I look forward to welcoming you to one of our delightful Aroma Tours in 2023 or 2024.
Warmest regards,
Jim and Robbi
