Italy is a country which has succeeded in cultivating the greatness of even
its least noted cities, villages and hamlets. There is scarcely a place in
Italy that has remained untouched by the waves of history, art, folklore and
culinary tradition, where a visit does not afford a chance for reflection or
even simple pleasure.
Whether you like traveling on your own
or with organized group tours, plan to schedule at least one PRIVATE
tour with an experienced, entertaining and highly-informed guide.
(Check here to have a list of
recommended guides). They'll take you off the tourist track, and as you stroll with them
through the picturesque streets and piazzas of the major cities, or let
them drive you along the panoramic country roads, Italy will suddenly
become more than a history or art lesson. It will be a place where real
people have actually lived for thousand of years. Buon viaggio!
