“My heart warms when I think of Dream Italia...this
was my second tour this past year. My first tour was ‘The
Rustic Cooking Tour’ and my second was ‘The Castles
and Vineyards Tour’. Elizabeth Montana has a special
gift of bringing amazing people together for the most magical
experiences! Her trips are very intimate and personal while
creating the opportunity of feeling like a local rather than
a tourist, visiting the richest of land, people and places.
Elena, Giovanni, Anna and Alessandra are an amazing group of
people who make us feel like we are home and are one of the
many gifts that come along with one of Dream Italia's Tuscan
Tours. I look forward to many more trips with Elizabeth and
Dream Italia.

"We all had a wonderful time! Everyone got along
fine, ate too much, sampled sufficient wine, spent plenty,
took hundreds of photos, and wore ourselves out sightseeing
and learning about the country. The hotels you provided were
first class (…) the three guides you arranged for us
were all very good and very knowledgeable. Having a private
guide is the only way to really get to know a specific area."

"The trip was wonderful, educational…It
was a pleasure to meet up with you and your partner, Elena.
I heard such nice comments about you from Mimma and Franca.
We had a wonderful driver…who is probably still confused
by those crazy tourists. The dinner at The Butcher's was outstanding,
as was everything in the Tuscan area! The boys sure look like
they were having a fun time with the Tuscan Mammas…(in
our photos)! Looking at the places we visited - every stop
along the way - has put me in the travel planning mode again.
I cannot wait to return. We just had a fantastic time and haven't
stopped talking about our
adventures."

Thank you for all your help and planning.
It is obvious you know a lot about traveling Italy, and I would
recommend you to anyone I know who plans to travel there. Several
of the guides spoke of you, and all the hotels were awaiting
our arrivals. Keep us in your contact list, as if the opportunity
were to arise, we would enjoy joining one of your small guided
tours.

"I have to tell you this trip with you (Dream Italia) was truly
one of the best trips I have ever had. I felt this trip captured my every wish
and request....and I didn't even have to ask. You have a true gift of putting
together a wonderful vacation that meets so many needs on so many levels."

"I got all my friends and co-workers interested in Italy after
they have all seen my photos. May even got some of them interested in signing
up for your 2008 Tours as I've told them how wonderful and unique your tours
are, and the warmth and hospitality extended by Elena, Anna, Alessandra and
Giovanni can never be duplicated by other 'canned' tours. You guys are incredibly
amazing and I'm just so happy I did this trip. I'm looking forward to more
in the future! :)"

"We can not stop smiling after taking this more than a dream
trip. From the beginning of this journey it became clear that it was first
class. Elizabeth's presentation of this mystical journey was all that was promised.
Our driver made every road trip comfortable, safe and relaxing, while our guide
provided answers, information and knowledge with her genuine smile...enthusiasm
and natural enjoyment."

"The Castles & Vineyards Tour provided so many enjoyable experiences...it
brings a smile to my face recalling the wonderful aromas of Anna's homemade
tagliatelle with ragú, roast herbed pork and potatoes with rosemary & garlic,
all topped off with a melt-in-your-mouth chocolate soufflé. It amuses
my family that I should now be able to make these spectacular dishes myself
after our cooking lesson at the villa!"

in Italy. It's hard to name a favorite! It all was just so
awesome!"

"If you are looking for a truly unique, one of a kind experience
in Italy...calls Dream Italia. In October of 2005 I had the wonderful opportunity
to travel in Italy for 10 days. The trip included many "special" events and
spontaneous moments. It was, without a doubt the most spectacular vacation
I have ever had, and I have traveled extensively. This is in large part attributed
to the knowledge and experience Dream Italia offers to travelers like me who
are looking for something extraordinary. In fact, whatever you are looking
for in Italy, on or off the beaten path...Dream Italia will make sure you find
it."
