Dream Italian Vacation Curated by Lorenza
Italy
|
May 13 - May 25, 2024
I cannot recommend Lorenza and my experience with kimkim enough! Lorenza planned an exceptional dream vacation for my husband and I for our 20th wedding anniversary in Italy. Lorenza took the time to first understand what we were looking for in a vacation, what our interests were and what level of service we required. Armed with that information she carefully curated an experience that surpassed our wildest expectations. From every detail of our transport to carefully selected hotels to knowledgeable and friendly guides, each experience was thoughtful and detailed. We particularly enjoyed our time in Cinque Terre and the lovely couple who operated the Hotel Marina Piccola. We were also charmed by the Tuscan countryside where we stayed at the beautiful Relais Osteria dell'Orcia and relished our tour of Montepulciano and Pienza with our outstanding local guide Serena! In addition we treasured the truffle hunt and cooking class operated by three generations of the Loghi family. If I sound like I'm gushing, its because I am! If you are interested in visiting Italy, you absolutely will not regret using Lorenza. 10 out of 10!
Hotel Reviews
The rooms were very large, the breakfast was outstanding and the location was central.
This hotel was a treasure. The couple who owns and operates it are so kind and welcoming. We really enjoyed the delicious breakfast spread each morning which included eggs or pancakes made fresh to order. The location was great and the people even better!
The rooms are nice and very spacious. The location is in the heart of the city and cant be beat. The morning breakfast was a plus.
Activity Reviews
This was a fun experience that enabled us to try so much delicious local fare.
Our guide was very intelligent and knowledgeable. She was a native to the community and offered a very in depth and personal perspective.
We loved our guide Serena and appreciated how connected she was with the community. This was by far one of the best tours we went on in Italy and cannot recommend it more highly.
We had a wonderful experience with the Loghi family. It was such a treat to meet all 3 generations working the land. The truffle hunt was fun and informative and the cooking class after was delicious and informative. The entire team was welcoming and hospitable.
A unique experience to vacation like a local! The hot springs were divine, the grounds stunning and the people kind.
This was a neat experience. It began with a walk to the local market to shop for the food we will cook. The guide grew up in the neighborhood and so you feel like a part of the community. We were then welcomed back into their home where we engaged in a cooking class and delicious meal. We really enjoyed spending time with locals in their home and learning about their customs, beliefs and ideas.
