It was my first time to Ireland and it exceeded all expectations. I especially enjoyed the side trip to Belfast and the deep dive into the history of the troubles and the ongoing animosity between the groups. As usual, Jewel had all details down and the company of fellow travelers was wonderful!

The Iceland eclipse adventure was fabulous. As usual Jewel had every detail nailed down perfectly. The clouds did not cooperate with the eclipse but everything else was great.

We had such an amazing time on our Iceland adventure! The scenery was amazing and all the accommodations and meals were first rate. The people we travelled with made our Iceland experience all the better. Thank you to Jewel and Cultured Travel for putting together such a great trip. We look forward to checking out future trips. Thank you!

This was our first travel experience with Jewel and Cultured Travel. We had a fantastic experience as a family with a group of travelers that became our friends. We enjoyed delicious meals, learned important history, and made special visits to local farms and businesses in the Calabria region of southern Italy. Jewel, with the help of her Italian counterpart, created these experiences that otherwise would not have been possible. I am very much looking forward to my next trip with Jewel and would highly recommend her trips to others!

We had a wonderful time meeting the people of Calabria who are part of the Vera Italia initiative. Starting with Chiara, whose brainchild this organization was, to all those who were so passionate about their life work and enthusiastically shared it with our group! This was our 7th trip with Jewel and we’ve come to realize that travelers who choose Cultured Travel are truly a special breed. With ages ranging from 18- 76, our group became one big family. Of course, the stay in Castello Fiuzzi was icing on the cake of an otherwise incredible experience! I highly recommend traveling with Cultured Travel!!
