History and Culture

While on your travels throughout Greece,Turkey and Italy, allow Louisa (Asimina) Gressis, for whom the company is named after, to be your reliable and knowledgeable travel advisor. Louisa travels to Greece and to Turkey from April to October and can provide an abundance of information for each country.

In the winter time and during her off time, you’ll find Louisa teaching authentic Greek cooking classes at Galazio (her own restaurant) in La Plata, Maryland.

Hello! My name is Moema Professor and I work as an Accounts Executive for Asimina Tours! ?I graduated from the Federal University of Sergipe, in Brazil, and became a dentist.  I did this for a few years but this career path was not fulfilling me personally. I decided to make a big change in my life and find what made me “happy”.

Some of the things I enjoyed were travel, culture, food, children, and family time.  I spent time at a close friend’s house and got to experience what is life like in the USA.    While in the USA I met Stella, the owner of Asimina Tours.

Working for Asimina Tours  “felt right” and it was exactly what I was looking to do in life.  Since I love Culture, travel, great food, and “family”, Asimina Tours was the perfect fit for me.

I have been in the travel industry for a few years now working with suppliers in Greece, Italy, and Turkey and traveling as often as I can. I am loving every minute of it!
