Nicoletta,
Wow! What a trip. We had a fantastic time on our trip to Italy. Venice was wonderful. Our Florence Hotel was also perfect and Florence was our favorite location. During our private drive in Tuscany we visited wineries, an ancient monastery, and immersed ourselves in the culture of Italy. It was the people that made our trip to Italy so memorable. We experienced Italy through the eyes and stories of the locals their story with us.
Hey Alessia,
We had a great time -- thanks to your guidance - having your services were invaluable to us; having detailed instructions on where to meet the guides, along with advanced-purchased tickets to the venues saved us so much time and confusion. We liked Florence immensely, the highlights of our time in Florence were absolutely the cooking class!

I was born and raised in Milan, in the north in Lombardy. I started studying foreign languages and came to the United States to San Diego, CA as an au pair. My plan was to stay for six months and really study English and I ended up staying. I really loved it, I loved the ocean and being by the water. It’s hard for me to compare Italy to San Diego because I love both and my family is still in Milan and some in Tuscany. When I go back I get a chance to go back to both Milan and Tuscany, and I try to go back as much as I can.
