“AIDT 2018 was an outstanding tour that exceeded my expectations. Well organised and varied, I come home inspired with memories to last a lifetime”

“Relax and enjoy the experience and knowledge that Simon and Mel can provide. Value from the moment you start! Leave the organisation to them and you will be in good company together with other designers”

 

– Robert

“As a freshly graduated designer I was extremely excited by the idea of being a part of Eurocucina. I was blown away by the magnitude of this event and was in awe of all that we saw! I could not fault the trip, it met all my expectations and more, thank you Mel and Simon”

 

– Nadine

“Being able to see firsthand what goes on behind the scenes at both the factories where they design and produce their products was fantastic! It reinforces my opinion of the high standard and superior quality both these two companies provide”

 

– Sonja

ACT

“This tour was an extremely positive experience. It was well organised, we were looked after every step of the way and not have a single moment of uncertainty or concern. From a professional sense there was so much value to be gained on this trip, and from a social perspective the people were lovely and welcoming. Mel and Simon go to a lot of effort to ensure no one is left out or misses out on anything. 100% would do this again”
