Italy with Weeds

July 16 to August 4, 2019 – Selling Now!

For the past 9 years jazz impresario CORY WEEDS has been guiding 30 – 40 very lucky people around places such as Cuba, New ork and Chicago experiencing delicious food, fine wine and swinging jazz! The 2019 tour sees Weeds leave the continent and head to the wonderful country of Italy. The International Jazz Festival of La Spezia is the longest-running Italian music festival dedicated to jazz music. It has been taking place in and around La Spezia since 1969. Weeds’ friend, pianist Antonio Ciacca is the Artistic Director of the festival and promises an unbelievable experience for the 2019 edition! Enjoy the unique charm of the area of Northern Italy and Cinque Terre. You’re sure to arrive back home from this tour with lots of photos and stories!

Just returned home on Saturday evening. Extended the trip as you know with a couple of days in San Sebastian and then a day in Bilbao. The trip was fabulous. I enjoyed it immensely. A few hiccups, but my goodness, when you consider the ambitiousness and scope of the trip, a few are to be expected. You did a great job putting the trip together. Aside from a few issues with respect to the shellfish, everything went along smashingly well. One thing I may comment on is the pace of the trip. We did so much and saw so much and our tour director, Javier tried his best to ensure we saw as much as we did and were as well cared for as we were.

He was a terrific guy - and I think was criticized by a few in the group unfairly. He worked tirelessly for all of us

Thank you again for organizing such a wonderful trip.
