About Us
45 years in Europe and lived with our family in Rome, Paris, Munich, Basel, and The Hague. Over the past 4 decades we’ve come to know special places and people that now we want to share with you.
A little bit about us
We’re delighted to tell you about the first journey in our amazing year of curated, sensory travel. Alta Via is a unique travel experience for those who want to immerse themselves in beautiful and fascinating places. For those who have a curiosity to meet and learn from people of different cultures and hear their stories. And for those--like us--who love to taste food fresh from a mountain farm, sail in the ancient waters of the Mediterranean and ski beneath the Matterhorn.
We’re excited to share with you our years of experience doing those things and more! We look forward to becoming your friends and have you join our wonderful community of like-minded travelers across the globe. Allons-y!

Meet the Nelson's
Over the past 4 decades we’ve lived, worked, and traveled extensively throughout Europe. With apartments in Rome, Paris, Munich, Basel, and The Hague, we’ve come to know special places and more importantly, special people that we can’t wait to share with you.
The photos you see here are from our own travel adventures as we’ve enjoyed these beautiful places throughout the years. We’ve been to each of these locales many times and know many hidden gems and local best kept secrets.
Join us for Spring in The Netherlands and Paris. We’ll go to off-the-beaten path locations and take a fresh look at a few old favorites. We’ll enjoy delicious food and markets, learn history from WWII and past centuries, ride bikes, taste chocolate, and explore boutique shops. We can’t wait to see you!
