The Measure of a Trip


It is said that all roads lead to Rome.  Italy has drawn people in search of culture, art, beauty and romance for many centuries.  Italy is a land celebrated for its heritage, art, spectacular natural beauty, design, architecture, music, culture and gastronomic delights.  A trip to Italy will bring to life the vivid colors and emotions that this enchanting country can so artfully showcase.

Although Italy is profoundly rich in art, many of her great treasures are not in churches or museums.  Let yourself be delighted by the show Italy will make for all your senses.  Open your eyes and see the colors and the light that has inspired artists the likes of Leonardo da Vinci and Michelangelo.  Let your ears delight in the melodic language for which opera was created.  Savor the luscious food and wines for which Italy's reputation is justly deserved.  Enjoy the warm and vibrant nature of the people who invented the "dolce vita" and perfected elegant style.  Relish your afternoon people watching and enjoying the Italian sunshine.  Talk to the little old man you see sitting on the bench.

The beauty of any trip is never measured by the number of museums you see or the number of souvenirs you cart home.  A truly wonderful trip lights up your heart and awakens your spirit and gives you memories which last a life time.
