Pace

Consistently robust – very full and active days, extended travel times, use of different modes of local transport, and a possibility of early starts.
Along Europe's Scenic "Yellow Roads"
From under the Tuscan sun to the Italian Riviera... discover the stories behind the brilliance of Renaissance painters and sculptors from an art historian in Florence... prepare pasta with a chef and learn the finer points of olive oil tasting...
For the culturally curious, this journey through Italy is a feeling that you've become much more savvy after an art history briefing. It’s walking through the medieval alleys of Siena... or bicycling atop the walls of Lucca. It’s laughter. It’s sharing vino made from grapes in the vineyards you’ve just walked through and kicking back. It’s about becoming a part of day-to-day Italy... and new views on life... Hear a recital by a concert pianist in his private palazzo and chat with artisans... discover the beauty of natural marble and Cinque Terre villages overlooking the sea, connected by walking trails...

My friend and I decided to take this trip not so much for the “culturious” aspect but because of the itinerary. Having said that, the trip more than met our expectations. There were options offered if you chose not to do the super active activities; for example walking tours of Lucca and Cinque Terre vs. bike riding on the walls or hiking.
Most Memorable Moment:
Artisans workshops in Oltarno; ride through the marble quarry in Carrera; the magical city of Siena with its Il Campo.
Everything about the trip was top notch! We enjoyed the sights, the adventures, the tour director, the local tour guides, and the food. Even the weather cooperated!
Most Memorable Moment:
The private visit with Georgio Nardi and his piano recital for us. Close behind this were the marble quarry visit, the pasta class and lunch, the restoration class, and the bike ride. It was all wonderful!
