Meet Nicoletta
"I believe in small, intimate groups where you can enjoy being yourself and experience the flavor of a place without overwhelming it. I lead groups to my favorite places, often involving my Italian friends, taking care of all the logistics in place and making the most of sharing with others what I know and love.
Everything needs to run smoothly during travel, but I am aware also that spontaneity and flexibility are part of traveling- and of the Italian character and culture, so another of my goals is to make you feel that sense of personal discovery and of being a participant in an unforgettable adventure."
Meeting with the Etruscans in the Maremma of Tuscany, sipping wine on the Islands of the Tuscan Archipelago, stepping into history at the Greek Temples in Sicily, relaxing at the hot Springs in Southern Tuscany or at a Spa Agriturismo near Bologna, enjoying picnics in the countryside and the “aperitivi” in the town piazzas, shopping at open air markets for freshness, participating in cooking classes with the locals to learn the secrets of home made pasta and pizza, and of course eating the delicious foods of Sicily, Tuscany, Emilia-Romagna...all in slow travel, with time to enjoy gelato.
