A Recent Guest's Description of La Dolce Vita Victual Tour:
“While staying in Lake Como, we experienced a guided boat tour of the spectacular Italian Villas and Bellagio. We took in the fresh air of the picturesque Italian Alps and shopped exclusive boutiques followed the steps to the top of the amazing Duomo Cathedral of Milan. We cruised the shores of the Italian Riviera while drinking the finest of wines while absorbing the stunning Mediterranean views and stuffed ourselves with pesto, exotic fish platters, and Italian meats and cheese!"
We also got to experience Bassano Del Grappa which is a very special and unique mountain village and then experienced a romantic Gondola ride and the allure of Venice. At the Colosseum, we followed the footsteps of Roman Gladiators and learned about epic battles; threw a coin over our shoulders and made a wish at the Trevi Fountain. Some of us even had the chance to see the Pope’s Mass at the Vatican! Finally, we had two days to explore and revel at the true magic of Rome! It really was a trip of a lifetime!“
