Hi guys, welcome to the REAL Italy!

A full day surrounded by Nature (hiking, lake, mountains, falls), History and Culture (old village, Castle, Hermitage) and homemade Organic Food (km 0).

We'll visit a ghost medieval village with Palace Maze and Garden, have a GREAT lunch in a local place around the Turano Lake, one of the region’s best-kept secrets, with blue clear waters surrounded by green mountains, and visit Castel di Tora, in the Top 100's Italian small villages.

    Our guide was full of knowledge, and sooo welcoming. He went ABOVE and BEYOND from our first contact until we left at the end of the day. It was the best tour of our trip. We left feeling like part of the family. I am a travel agent and will be sending all my clients his way. We were blessed to have met him and had the perfect day.

    Paolo took our family on a beautiful scenic hike to the castle. He explained the history of the area and fed us a tasty Italian meal at his home! We stayed in the most cosy apartment with a gorgeous view in a mid evil village. Such an original experience for our family!

    This was our best experience in Italy! We chose to stay in the village the night before our hike, adding to the overall experience. Our guide and host, Paolo, was so kind, helpful and very informative. We met some wonderful people, as well. I love to meet people from countries I visit, as I can learn about their culture. I highly recommend it! My family, including teen daughters, also agreed it was the best part of our trip.
