Give the Gift of Travel with Sulky

The Gift of Travel

CHristmas Markets, Bavaria Craftours

The gift of travel is the greatest gift of all! Experiences, rather than things, are far better for our mental health, education and personal fulfillment. And travel is even better when you’re with like-minded people who love to sew, craft and create. It certainly makes seeking out fabric stores much more fun. Check out our 2024 and 2025 travel opportunities and put them on your gift list! Santa just might make your dreams come true this year!

PREVIOUS SULKY TRAVEL TOURS

We recently returned from our Sulky + Craftours London tour, which was a sold-out tour! Everyone had a great time and got along so nicely.

Not only did we see all the bucket-list, iconic sights of London and Bath, but we also were able to attend special visits to museums and art galleries (and the Warner Bros Harry Potter Studio Tour) that were pre-arranged just for our group. It’s a more intimate experience and everything was planned for us!

in 2019 and 2022, we traveled to Germany. We visited the Christmas Markets in Munich, Bavaria and Austria in 2019 and had a special apple-strudel making lesson.

Making Apple Strudel in Austria Travel

Last year, we also toured Munich and Austria and added Italy to the mix. We went to a private winery and had a five-course meal with wine pairings and olive oil tastings. We also made our own glass-blown ornaments, which we got to take home as special souvenirs!

TRAVEL TO IRELAND

In July of 2024, we will head to Ireland. We will stay in Galway, Killarney & Dublin and visit all the bucket-list locales of these regions. We won’t miss the Cliffs of Mohr, Blarney Castle and much, much more.

Ellen is already preparing the sewing workshop for this tour, as it will revolve around the Blarney Woolen Mill and Avoca Mill destinations (hint, hint). This is sure to be a fantastic travel gift that everyone will cherish forever!

GIFT OF TRAVEL TO BALI & BEYOND

Sulky goes to Bali in October of 2024, where we will learn all about batiking, attend a Batik Expo, visit an Ikat factory, experience the food and culture and so much more. This tour will be all bout the FABRICS that sewists, quilters and crafters LOVE.

When you attend a Sulky trip, all the planning is done for you! You can simply get on the first-class bus and relax while you’re transported to all the locations you’ve always wanted to see. You’re guaranteed to make new friends and be rejuvenated by the new sights and sounds of whichever location you decide to visit.

Plus, you’l have at least one hands-on a sewing workshop during the tour so you can commemorate your travels with needle and thread. Sulky’s Ellen March will teach you in-person, in a beautiful setting, while enjoying some local treats!
