The original, the best: this is where the concept of "rowing vacations" was born! Rowers are well-traveled, curious, and easy-going, and it is our great joy to be able to share our rowing haunts with others.

In Tuscany, we train on our secluded rowing basin, go for a row under the Ponte Vecchio in Florence, and absorb the true sense of Tuscan culture. Every day we'll be on the water, working on perfecting the essentials of our rowing technique, and then we'll take off exploring the countryside and towns. Showing our guests what we love is a wonderful excuse to see them ourselves!

All the passion and love of travel & rowing that we put into our Tuscany experience also goes beyond to Sicily, China, Venice, Quebec , and anywhere that's fun to row! We take you to local rowers who are delighted to share their passion with others, we coach you on the ocean, rivers, lakes or basins... anywhere where rowing is a daily activity. And we combine our workouts, as always, with terrific local food, culture, and day trips.
