Italy From the Inside

Small-group food and wine journeys through Northern Italy, hosted by Australian chef and restaurateur Judy Harman.

Most tours show you Italy.
This one lets you into it.

I’m Judy Harman – raised in Australia, but bound to Northern Italy by a passion for its food, culture, and people. Ten years ago I left a corporate career in Sydney to follow a dream. After 16 years as a customer at a little restaurant called Groto de Corgnan in the hills above Verona, I loved it so much that I learnt to be a chef and bought it.

Today I run two restaurants in Northern Italy. I cook alongside local chefs. I buy my olive oil from a family who has been pressing it the same way for generations. My prosciutto comes from Luca, my cheese from Federico up in the Lessinia mountains, and my wine from producers who remember my first visit and still call me la signora australiana.

Embrace Italy with Judy is my way of sharing all of it. Strictly capped at 8 guests per tour for genuine connection, private access, and food that will permanently raise your expectations for authentic Italian dining.
