"It was a fantastic trip, very well organised and appreciated... really special to follow Montessori’s life, literally from house of birth to house of death.
I felt like I got to know her as a woman and as a person, as opposed to covering just the philosophy.
It was lovely to meet you and share that special trip with you." Danielle E, Canada.

"Thank you for all you have done to make this trip happen. I am glad I was part of the Study Tour. It was an enjoyable and memorable trip for me. I met many new friends where we shared lots of laughs, giggles, surprises, fun and most important, everyone seems to get along with each other.
I liked where we ended up at the farm for such delicious dinner. Something unusual." Samantha W, Australia.
