Ciao from Italy! 🇮🇹✨

Our Travel Connections group officially kicked off the first day of our Italy Undiscovered journey with an incredible introduction to Northern Italy’s history, culture, and cuisine.

We began in Milan with a guided walking tour featuring some of the city’s most iconic landmarks — the magnificent Duomo, the elegant Galleria Vittorio Emanuele II, the world-famous La Scala Opera House, and the historic Sforza Castle.

From there, we traveled to the charming village of Busseto, birthplace of legendary composer Giuseppe Verdi, before enjoying a visit to a local cheese factory for an authentic Parmigiano Reggiano tasting. 🧀

But the evening may have been the highlight of the day…

In the peaceful Italian countryside, our group gathered at a beautiful farmhouse restaurant where a local chef taught us the art of making traditional tortellini by hand. We enjoyed an unforgettable dinner filled with regional specialties including cured meats, Parma ham, fresh pasta, risotto, and dessert — all paired with the warmth and hospitality that make Italy so special. 🍷🍝

What an amazing first day exploring the hidden flavors and traditions of Italy!

Thank you to Avanti Destinations and Tourism New Zealand for an inspiring and educational evening featuring the beauty and diversity of New Zealand 🇳🇿

From the rich traditions of Māori culture in Rotorua, where you’ll find bubbling geothermal landscapes, cultural experiences, and natural hot springs - to the vibrant energy of Queenstown, known as the adventure capital of the world. New Zealand truly offers something for every type of traveler. Queenstown stands out with its incredible food scene, nearby wineries (hello, Pinot Noir 🍷), and breathtaking alpine scenery that makes it just as perfect for relaxing as it is for adventure.

We also explored some of the most scenic rail journeys in the world. The TranzAlpine 🚞 takes you through the dramatic Southern Alps, with towering mountains, deep gorges, and lush forests, while the Coastal Pacific offers a completely different perspective, hugging the edge of the Pacific Ocean with stunning coastal cliffs, beaches, and vineyard landscapes along the way.

Add in unforgettable experiences like the Waitomo Glowworm Caves, relaxing geothermal hot springs, and iconic scenery and filming locations like Hobbiton from The Lord of the Rings, and it’s easy to see why New Zealand is such a bucket-list destination for the whole family.

It’s a place where culture, cuisine, nature, and adventure all come together in the most unforgettable way.
