BACKGROUND
Italians are true to their reputation of being proud, passionate and lively characters. Complemented by their first class hospitality and excellent cuisine, the locals always welcome those who share an appreciation for life’s simple pleasures. People-watching in Italy is entertaining, particularly at the end of the day when social interaction is the only element of importance. Any attempts to speak their language are highly appreciated by Italians, so be sure to learn a few words and phrases. More importantly, the people you meet will be excited to help you out with your speaking skills.

Ciao Monica,
It is truly amazing. One of those places that even while you are there living it you can’t believe exists. It’s incredible and very non Europeans ever discover it. And yes, vegan/oil-free is certainly an option.
We send out surveys to all our clients registered for the trip way in advance so that the chef at Villa Lina can design menus specific to the group. And there are so many vegan options you’ll love it!
Email us directly anytime hello@alchemytours.com
We’d love to have you join this beautiful group of open hearts!
Peace in all ways.
