Edited by Travel Weekly


    This week on Travel Weekly TV Evan Petrelis gives Nancy the scoop on how special interest tours are planned, and what you can expect on an incredible holiday with Renaissance Tours.

    Renaissance Tours encompass the far-reaching ‘arts’ field, operating deep dives on art, archaeology, architecture, music, dance, gardens food and wine!

    Quite the list… One which Petrelis jokes are ‘all’ personal passions.

    One of the keys to Renaissance Tours is the meticulously research the team puts into each and every itinerary.

    We invest a lot of resources in product development,” Petrelis said.

    “In the 28 years or so years that we’ve been in business, we’ve obviously learnt a trick or two about special interest touring.

    “But every year we create a fresh collection of tours.

    A clean slate, a different set of destinations, a different set of topics and then we research all of those tours from ground zero to launch a new collection every year.

    “Because we have something different to offer every year 8/10 of our travellers are repeat travellers.

    So if the company of like-minded people, hand-picked, expert tour leaders and personalised care and attention sounds up your client’s alley, check out the rest of what Evan had to say below!
