Ciao Roberta,
I apologize for not getting back to you sooner .. my husband and I travel to Italy frequently, but never did we have such an amazing experience!
We had a great time and were very pleased with the trip that Cultural Italy planned for us. I would have to say that Siena and Venice were our favorites. With Wine country coming in a close second. All in all there was something for everyone and we were sad to see our 12 days go by so fast.
The trip was great! Kolbe hotel was good. Napolean hotel in Rome provided excellent service, but beds and pillows were very comfortable. Service was top notch. The hotel in Sorrento was good. Great trip overall.
TUSCANY'S HIDDEN JEM
Located on a hill just over 300 meters, Castiglion Fiorentino offers you a relaxing view: from its squares and terraces, the sight of the landscape of 'Val di Chiana' disappears toward the horizon. The small village had already evolved during Etruscan times since the VI century B.C., but it was not until the Roman Empire that the area became more prominent.

Claudio Abbado is one of those many artists Italy is also known for and proud of. This great conductor - perhaps the greatest in Italy after Toscanini - was born in Milan in 1933 from an educated middle class family. The father was a talented violinist who guided his two children to the strict, but at the same time free and playful, study of the seven notes.
Hi Alessia,
Our trip was wonderful! All of the guides and drivers were on time and professional and the hotels ranged from great to good…I’m glad we switched primarily from Hotel Romance to Hotel Lunetta in Rome. The family absolutely loved the trip.
ART EXHIBITION
Runs through May 4th 2014
The show will trace the artistic and spiritual evolution of this great visionary and revolutionary artist, from his colorful and figurative works of his art school period up to his most avant-garde pieces. Vasily Vasilievich Kandinsky was born in Moscow December 4, 1866, and four years later he moved with his family to Odessa, Germany. Here, besides attending a classical gymnasium (grammar school), he took drawing lessons as well. "I remember that drawing and a little bit later painting lifted me out of the reality", he wrote later.
