The Basics
5 Day Minimum
The body takes time to settle into new environments. Usually, the first two days are an adjustment, after which time the Italian way of life starts to settle in.
To adjust fully, we recommend 7 to 10 days.
April~November
Every season in Italy is unique. Spring is beautiful, chirpy and lush; Summer is hot and produces a myriad of fresh vegetables; Autumn provides heartier meals, meats and landscapes. The village is left in peace during winter.
Up to 16 Guests per Group
Reducing carbon footprints; increasing elbow room.
