The Italian Connection

italian connection walking and cooking tour
Vacationing like P Diddy is always a good thing. Yachts, pool parties, Cristal, beautiful women...it's tough to beat. However, sometimes its nice to take a break from all that bling and experience a different side of luxury.

Started in 1993 by Anita Iaconangelo and named as one of the 50 Tours of a Lifetime by National Geographic Traveler, Italian Connection offers a host of walking and cooking tours throughout Italy. Forget museums and shopping venues, instead, their experienced and passionate guides will lead you on a memorable journey through the back-country of Italy, where you'll get the opportunity to experience delicious regional cuisine either in local ristoranti and trattorie, or even in a private residence where you'll be treated to authentic Italian home cooking.

The tour groups are relatively small - typically 2 to 8 people - for a more intimate experience. They also offer Complimentary Smooth Arrival where upon arrival, a driver will whisk you to your hotel. Also for a limited time, they're including a complimentary hotel stay.
