Jessica,
Our trip to Italy was amazing and thanks to Initaly.com, we stayed in great hotels and had some great tips to help us get the most out of our stay!
Our favorite hotel all around was Paradiso nel Chianti in Gaiole in Chanti. The hosts there were extremely friendly, helpful and made us feel at home during our stay. The room was spacious, clean and furnished with antiques. If it had been summertime, we definitely would have enjoyed the great pool on the grounds. They even set up a table on the patio with champagne and snacks on our first night when they heard we were on our honeymoon. This was a great location to visit the heart of the Chanti region: Rada, Greve, Castelina and Gaiole.
Our experience of Tuscany was one we will never forget. We enjoyed the countryside and all the little towns we visited along the way--all with their own unique character, people and charm. Thank you Initaly.com for helping to make our trip so wonderful!

Dear In Italy,
Paradiso -- LOVED it. Perfect location (our favorite part of Chianti Classico), set back, super-friendly, small, nice...
We have a ton of favorites (restaurants, towns, enotechas, wineries) from our two trips...it will take a while to organize thoughts...

Dear In Italy,
Italy was indeed fabulous. I think we fell in love with Tuscany, as do so many. The Paradiso nel Chianti was charming, and the staff did a great job of taking care of us. In was unexpectedly rural and quiet, with beautiful sunsets and stars at night.
Thanks for your help

Hi,
It was a great trip and thanks very much for helping us plan it! We were a little nervous since we'd never relied quite so much on a web service to plan a vacation but everything went incredibly well. I would not hesitate to recommend your services to someone planning a trip to Italy. A few specifics -
Paradiso nel Chianti - Very nice spot, great for excursions, communication somewhat difficult as no one really spoke any English.
Car rental - Driving was great, glad I went with at least an Alfa Romeo.
Highlights -
Cinqueterre - A must see and maybe the best day of our trip.
Artworks - We returned with 5 paintings, several prints, 2 venetian masks, and a few items from the Murano glassworks. I don't know if you mention it anywhere on your website, but Italy is an absolutely fantastic place to get very nice art at reasonable prices.
Thanks again...Ian M.
