Viva Italia ! Treasures of the Italian Lakes … and Abruzzo tour!
Let me tell you about a special trip to Italy we’ve planned which I trust will appeal to all you “Italophiles”.
Maleny Cruise & Travel is offering a 16 day inclusive Fly /Cruise/Tour departing Australia on April 18, 2009.
A value offer from MSC Cruises – “Treasures of the Italian Lakes & Mediterranean” will be followed by a private tour of Abruzzo.
You will explore northern Italy’s Lakes Garda, Como, Maggiore, Milan, the Cinque Terre and Genoa followed by a 7 nights Cruise on MSC’s recently launched Fantasia, visiting ports in Italy, Tunisia, Spain, France and finishing in Genoa. This portion of the tour concludes on May 3 with a coach transfer to Milan’s Malpenza airport.
The cost is based on your cabin selection, and starts from $6660.00 share twin per person and is inclusive of your return airfare from Australia, with the option to return from Europe at your leisure.
This tour is offering leisurely two night stays in selected four star hotels with breakfast daily.
But can we entice you a little further….
At the conclusion of the cruise, Maleny Cruise & Travel will fly you FREE from Milan to Rome to join a private, fully escorted tour of Abruzzo so you can truly say, you have experienced the real Italy.
“Along the Shepherds Track” starts in Rome on May 3 and concludes in Rome on May 10, 2009.
Abruzzo is a magnificent unspoilt part of Italy where you will have the opportunity to experience a place and a culture preserved in time. You will explore remote ancient monasteries carved into the mountains, medieval castles perched on rocky peaks, and you will walk along ancient shepherds paths weaving through elevated meadows.
But nothing will beat your encounters with the local people and the slow food.
Their recipes are unique to this area as, the locals show their love through their food and share everything. You will attend a cooking class, see the locals making their wine and cheese.
This tour is a personally escorted by Luciana Mastri – a child of Abruzzo and her partner Michael. Space must be limited to 7 to 13 guests.
Cost is $4350 per person based on twin share accommodation. A single supplement is available.
