CLAUDIA, HEART, AND MIND

Hi, I’m Claudia, and I created SlowDays after a significant change in my professional life. As happens to many, I have been unhappy with my job for too long. After complaining, blaming fate, and thinking there was no way to change a life that didn’t reflect me, I decided…TRY IT!

In my professional life, I have always been involved in tourism, so the choice came naturally. I began studying to learn more about the beautiful area where I live and was born, and I discovered that I knew very little about it!

This work allowed me to discover hidden treasures, meet extraordinary people, have unforgettable experiences (yes, I tried them all before recommending them to others!), and fall in love with this wonderful Piedmont!

Slowdays (I say it’s my third child) was born in 2016 to make my experience in the area available to those who want to get to know it differently and outside of the more obvious tourist proposals, taking some time to do it at their leisure.

There are the big portals on the Internet; on the Internet, you can find everything, but in my small way, I believe I can offer something that you would have a hard time finding: a local and human experience that will stay in your heart.

ROBERTO, THE ADMINISTRATIVE SPORTSMAN

Hi, I’m Roberto, Claudia’s husband.

I have decided to collaborate with Claudia by using my strengths: I have always been a sports enthusiast, so I am getting into parts related to outdoor activities, such as treks and bike tours, researching new routes, and preparing tracks for clients.

Each bike, Vespa, or walking tour comes with a map that helps you follow the best trail and arrive at the must-see points of your Tour. Read this article to learn about the benefits of our choice, and you’ll understand how I make the route enjoyable for you, an autonomous but guided rental.

Claudia is creative, but someone to keep the books in order is essential! So I help her out with what she loves least: invoices, paperwork, and various fulfillments… and then reminding suppliers of appointments, sending emails to make sure clients had a great vacation, and dozens of other tasks that volcano Claudia devises week after week!

PAOLO AND MARTA: For the Treasure Hunt department, here are our contributors.

It is with pleasure that we introduce you to Paolo and Marta, the creative people behind the magic of our treasure hunt tours in the Langhe hills and cities.

Paolo, with his passion for sports and ingenuity, brings his experience and energy to organizing events and leading groups through the treasure hunt stages. His resourceful approach and ability to turn any venue into a stage for fun engage even the most reserved participants, making each treasure hunt an unforgettable experience.

Marta, on the other hand, is the analytical mind behind every detail of our events. With her attention to detail, Marta remotely monitors the groups that challenge each other with puzzles and finds in her the Judge who decides if and when the test is passed! Through her support and any suggestions, those who choose the treasure hunt on their own will never be alone!

Together, Paul and Marta form a dynamic and complementary team that has rightfully been accepted into the SlowDays group. They also use, depending on requests, other animators chosen and trained by them, who are always well received by the groups.

Their commitment and dedication align perfectly with the SlowDays philosophy: to make you experience our area as a local and receive personalized attention and exclusivity in organizing your events.

Scavenger hunts for bachelorette parties, bachelor parties, and company events. These events are only available with Italian guides. Sorry for the inconvenience.

GUIDO: Collaborate for the adventure department!

Guido is the most adventurous part of SlowDays. The meeting between Claudia and Guido has resulted in an interesting series of experiences that we offer each year with greater success. Those who are attracted to outdoor activities and are intrigued by Survival, Laser Tag, and escape games find in Guido experience and reliability. Guido is a self-defense expert and engages in adrenaline-pumping and extreme experiences, which give him confidence in leading groups in various situations and with different objectives.

Over the years, Guido has been able to interpret Claudia’s ideas, adapting the experiences to reach groups of girls celebrating bachelorette parties, groups of adventurous young people looking for thrills to celebrate a bachelor party, as well as quieter groups who prefer to try their hand at less extreme puzzles and challenges.

With his in-depth knowledge, empathy in handling groups, and adventurous spirit, Guido comes across as the ideal companion for those seeking unforgettable experiences in the world of survival and more thrilling adventures. But always with the concept of Slow, because everything must be appreciated, learned, and enjoyed, with the right timing!

Incoming Piedmont

What does that mean? And what do I do as a professional? I am a professional organizing and managing trips and experiences for tourists arriving in a destination, in my case, in the beautiful region of Piedmont.

I like to share the beauty and wonders of this corner of Italy with visitors from Italy and distant countries. As an “incoming” tour operator specializing in the Langhe region, I am dedicated to creating authentic experiences above all outside the usual tourist circuits. My love for these places I want to make it contagious.

I take pleasure in taking care of the details. I love to create customized itineraries that reflect the tastes and preferences of my clients. I like to surprise them with original and little-known activities, such as visits to small family wineries or walking tours through the hills. This way, I allow those who arrive to have an authentic and unforgettable experience.

I don’t like to stress clients; I want to ensure the days are organized and relaxing. There are always moments to stop, admire a view, and take a picture because travel is not just a way to reach a destination but an experience to be thoroughly enjoyed.

Being an “incoming” Tour Operator means being an ambassador of my land and its enchantment. Thanks to my passion and experience over the years, I can create trips and occasions for those who come to Piedmont for the first time and those who willingly return. I focus on the hidden beauties of the Langhe, Roero, and Monferrato, and I hope to provide authentic and unforgettable experiences.
