I have featured Pitcher and Powell’s trips to Marrakesh before. The trip is for women only and they are gone for about a week. The trip features both Barbara Pitcher and Tasha Powell who will be escorting a small group of women on a tour of a specific area within a specific country. The last trip was to Marrakesh. Now the ladies have added on a trip to PROVENCE in late May. The Provence 2020 dates are scheduled for May 25 – June 1, 2020.
