Holiday information
Small group tour, ideal for solos & couples:
Small group travel is not large group travel scaled down. It is modeled on independent travel – but with the advantage of a group leader to take care of the itinerary, accommodation and tickets, and dealing with the language. It’s easy to tick off the big sights independently – but finding those one-off experiences, local festivals, travelling markets and secret viewpoints is almost impossible for someone without the insider knowledge gained from years in the field. For those with limited time, a small group tour will save valuable time in planning, and on holiday.
Dietary requirements:
We can cater for vegetarian and vegan diets.
Responsible Travel
As the pioneers of responsible tourism, we've screened this (and every) holiday so that you can travel knowing we've worked to maximise the benefits of your holiday to local people and places, and minimise any negative impacts.
Planet
By travelling in a small group, we ‘tread lightly’ to minimise our impact on local resources and the environment.We work with our partners on the ground to proactively reduce waste; this includes eliminating all single-use plastic water bottles by providing refills for reusable bottles.
We visit locations off the usual tourist trail such as Faenza and Brisighella, helping to spread the economic support to places that don’t usually benefit.
We rewild 1,075sqft (100sqm) per passenger to compensate for all trip and flight emissions.
People
Local guides keep you well informed about local traditions and cultural-social sensitivities.This trip brings income and opportunity to the destination community through the inclusion of locally owned hotels, restaurants, and other enterprises, and by championing locally produced food wherever possible. Two hotels typically used on this trip are family-owned: Agriturismo La Razza and Hotel Silla in Florence.
We visit several small producers of local food and wine on this tour, which supports the local economies. Visits include Antica Corte Pallavicina and Leone Conti.
