Dear Julie and all at In Italy,
First of all, hope your holidays were joyful, we wish you much health and prosperity for the new year! Please excuse the delay in responding, but once you are back in "reality" mode time becomes limited!
Our trip to Italy can be described in one word: "FANTASTIC". Borgo del Chianti was wonderful. What a beautiful and serene place! Our special thanks go to Veronica: if not for her and her knowledge of the area we would have never made it there or much less discovered all of the wonders of Tuscany. (We got lost a lot and she was a true lifesaver!) One place we strongly recommened is Il Toscano in Mercatale, the food is marvelous and the staff and service is A1. Thanks to Veronica's recommendation we spent a lot of time there. The accommodations at the villa were very comfortable although the rooms were quite warm, the scenery compensated for the heat!
Our stay in Lerici was totally amazing. (My husband has a strong desire to retire there!) Lerici Seaside Hotel was very comfortable and the view from the room was beyond our expectations. WOW! My husband would wake up early in the morning just to take pictures of the view! The staff were very professional but also made us feel very much at home. We have repeatedly recommended this hotel and In Italy to all of our friends and family traveling to this area. The only complaint, we should have stayed more time here! (I guess there's always this year?)
Our most sincere thanks to you for your professional services and suggestions and most of all for making our first trip to Italy an unforgettable travel experience.
Thanks again!

Dear In Italy,
Thanks for your email - it has been a month and a half since our return from Italy and we are still talking about it to anyone who will listen. Despite living in the UK we had never travelled to Italy before and we both fell in love with the country and the people.
We used the train. On the suggestion of my wife's brother-in-law, we booked all our tickets in advance. We went First Class and in total our 5 train journeys cost £130 for the 2 of us (£65 each - you could hardly get one First Class 3 hour train journey for this price in the UK!). The trains were all on time & our reserved seats clearly marked - it was a joy to travel. We also found that Italian buses too are reliable and very cheap - 45 minute bus journey from Lenno to Como (all down one side of the lake so great views) cost under 5 Euros for both my wife & I.
What a beautiful town Lerici is, set in a glorious bay with a fine sandy beach. Everything you could want from a Mediterranean holiday. The hotel is perfectly placed about half a kilometre beachside walk from Lerici town - this means it is quiet but within easy reach of the town and harbour with its restaurants and beautiful centre. Best to get a front room overlooking the beach - the hotel is literally across the road from the sandy beach. From our room you looked directly over the beach and to the left you could see the dominating Lerici castle which is spectacularly lit up at night. Breakfast was very good but there was no restaurant in the hotel for an evening meal. However, this did not matter as Lerici is absolutely full of fantastic Italian restaurants with most at reasonable cost. Those closest to the harbour tend to be more expensive but are worth it for the overall experience. The different coloured houses and clever architecture make Lerici a delight. Get out on the boat to Porto Venere & the Cinque Terre - both are a must see experience.
All in all we had a wonderful 18 night Northern & Central Italy tour. It was relaxing but also exhilarating - leaving us wanting more. Initaly - your website and hotel details were very accurate & we thank you for all the help you gave us. We will be using you again - probably to book our 25th wedding anniversary trip to Venice in March of 2008. Any recommendations?

To whom it concerns:
We booked hotel Florida in Lerici Italy through your service. We were happy with how your represented the
hotel and the accurate cost. All is as advertised. It was a quality three star hotel. On the very positive
I would note the staff was exceedingly helpful. Particularly two ladies at the reception. They provided useful
information about the area and were always there with the extra towel or whatever we requested. For future
guests I would let them know that the better beach is at the four star hotel five minutes up the block. You
need to pay to get in. For our family of five it was about 40 euros per day. The other beach across from the
hotel was cheaper but not nearly as nice and much more over run.
Take care and good follow through.

Hi,
I want to tell you how amazing the owners of the hotel are in Lerici, Italy. We had terrible car problems driving from Paris to Italy. Long tedious story. However I called and we thought we would arrive about 11 PM. But there was a tunnel closed and we got lost did not arrive until 3 AM!!!. They were kind thoughtful and forgiving. We even wanted to stay another night but they did not have the rooms for us. However they found us another hotel that was perfect!! The problems were ours they were great. I would highly recommend their hotel and your service. Please feel free to use this or when I am not so tired I could write it up much better.
Thank you thank you.
