Elke Hartner
CO FOUNDER
Elke Hartner was born in Mainz, Germany and fell in love with Italy during an Italian language course in Florence immediately after high school. She graduated in art history in Mainz. During her university studies, she followed several editorial internships at the German television network ZDF. After university, her passion for Italy, art, language and of course good food led her to work as a guide and tour leader for a big German Tour Operator specialising in cultural trips. She introduced her guests to a large part of Italy, especially North and Central Italy, but also Uk and Australia.
In Piedmont she met her husband and has been living since 2001 near Alba, in the heart of the Langhe and Roero wine-growing area. Qui ha iniziato a lavorare nel settore del turismo incoming e ha pianificato e organizzato viaggi in Piemonte per turisti provenienti da paesi di lingua tedesca: Switzerland, Austria and Germany for the past 20 years. Her 20 years' experience as a tour guide allows her, on the one hand, to know the needs of North Alpine customers very well and, on the other, to know what the ingredients are for a successful programme.
She is a tour guide for the whole of Italy.
