We’re going back to the Motherland!

Our Summer Camp 2026 SOLD OUT and received rave reviews, so......we're doing it again!

You’re invited to join Juli, Julie and I…. Yes! The three J’s are ready to spend time with you in Italy at what we’re calling Summer Camp (in the spring when it's a bit cooler, LOL)

There are VERY limited spaces available, so unfortunately it’s first come first serve…. But man do we have something amazing for you. The incredible villa we have is actually a series of apartments, so grab your besties and take an apartment.

Of course we have the infamous Juli led Wine Tastings (are we at 14 Wine Spectator awards??), and lucky for us, we have our amazing Julie to document everything through her photography.

The price includes your accommodations and at minimum one excellent excursion a day.

For this 2.0 version we have new excursions, new vineyards and new wines!

Please note that the schedule is subject to change as we get closer to the event.

*Please advise your liver that it needs to be prepared to work overtime!

You'll spend the night in Naples and then we'll head to the Villa.
Join us for a Welcome to Italy Party…. Of course it’s got panoramic views, unlimited pizza and wine!

We will kick things off with a visit to a local vineyard, with a tour, tastings and a LOT of food to go with it. Two Way Transportation included.

17:00 Depart from the villa

17:30 Depart San Marco Harbour for Island of Licosa. Here there will be an Aperitif

stop with music and optional swim.

19:30 Depart Licosa Island

20:00 Return to San Marco Harbour

We have already learned (and seen) how Buffalo Mozzarella is made…so let’s expand that knowledge to Figs! From figs themselves, to stuffed figs and (my favorite) fig jam!

This excursion includes a light lunch

Guided cellar tour and tasting ofwines that express the territory to its fullest and the producer’s winemaking style

Food pairing: Selection of local cured meats and cheeses.

· 2 starters

· 1 main

· 1 second dish

And we'll kick it off with a self-guided walking tour of the adorable little sea-side town and a stop at a local Jewelry store for Champagne...

Learn the art of Hat Burning with your own design, burned onto your own hat to take home to remember this epic trip.

Of course we couldn’t do our legendary Wine Experience without actual wine tastings by Juli. But… I mean… we’re in a Villa. With wine. With Juli… so we’ll probably be drinking wine and learning all week!

Visit the UNESCO-listed site, famous for its

three remarkably well-preserved Greek temples – including the Temple of Neptune,

Hera and Athena – and the archaeological museum with its frescoes and artefacts

such as the Tomb of the Diver – slef-guided, includes various entry fees. Plan

11:00–13:00 for the guided visit before lunch nearby or return to the Casale.
