One of the main unique characteristic of Eliotropica travelling is that very focused on travelling women needs, still as above mentioned, being able to accommodate any independent request, however, this bright Travel agency every year organises in specific dates and itineraries, original tours dedicated to women, that will have the chance to gather together in the destination place and make new friend ,but expecially are supported by assistants that are personal travellers as well.

The suggested destination of Eliotropica Travelling are mainly in Italy, both because Italy is one of the best places where to spend holidays (so much to do and visit) and also because being physically in Tuscany (Lucca) it is the best known territory, however Spain, Greece, Corsica (France) and other destinations are surely possible. Lastly I should not forget to mention that chartering and sailing holidays is something that this great travel agency can make you experience.

The Lake Garda, ideal holiday place September 7, 2008

The Lake Garda is one of the most important lake of Italy, located between Lombardy and Veneto region, it covers a vast area that goes from Peschiera del Garda (not far from Verona) up to the north at Riva not far from the great Alps mountains. Each zone has its own typical micro climate, and generally speaking, expecially on the south part of the Lake Garda the moderate climate it is noticeable also by the growth of typical Mediterranean vegetation, lemon trees, olive trees but even palms and oleanders.

The Lake Garda is and ideal place where to go on holiday, for almost any aim, its tranquillity, beautiful landscapes, interesting events and obviously in water activities, like windsurfing, sailing etc. Visitor that historically come from any part of Europe and world are welcomed in the many Hotel Lake Garda property present all over the territory, we count most probably more than 1000 welcoming structures divided in hotels, pensions, B&B and any type of place where to spend a night over.

As I have mentioned before, the olive trees but not to forget the vineyards allow me to state that wines (firstly Amarone but also Valpolicella, Bardolino, Bianco di Custoza, Lugana and some other) and extra virgin olive oil are really among the best in Italy and as we all know the quality of Italian products, I may say that these products quality are qualified as among the best in the world. At last (but not least..) I would like to spend a word on  Amusement parks, beginning with Gardaland, probably the most famous, but also Canevaworld, Sigurtà Park and not to forget, even if not really amusement parks, the thermal parks and baths where to restore your body.

Surely a good suggestion it would be to take your time reserve a Hotel Lago di Garda and discover personally the greatness of this beautiful Italian lake and its zones.

 

Venicecharms.com a Venice Travel portal June 7, 2008

Venicecharms.com seems just another travel portal on Venice, and for some aspects obviously it is. By navigating through it you will be able to catch many useful information likewise any other Venice travel portal, however, the selection of information is very careful and aims to propose interesting high quality solution for your stay in Venice.

Shops, unique itineraries to discover hidden parts of Venice, short histories and curiosities on Venice monuments, most typical and traditional events like the Historical regatta or the magnificent Redentore festivity, Restaurant selection and short history of local cuisine.  Venice is always a surprise and Venicecharms.com helps you discover it from a different point of view.

A separated special mention has to be done for the Hotel section, which is a selection of 4 star Venice Hotels, even bookable directly, in fact Venicecharms.com is an informative website and does not intermediates on Hotel reservations like the most famous Hotel portals, that is a strategic difference when you have to consider to book your Hotel, in such a way you will be sure to have always the best available rate.

Since this is an informative website, and information flow is constantly going, venicecharms.com will be adding more and more contents and features, we suggest, to take a look every once in a while to discover more and more about the beautiful city of Venice.

Florence Hotels – Villa I Barronci – San Casciano Val di Pesa June 7, 2008

 

 

 

The hills nearby Florence are something to be seen at least once, tranquillity, beautiful landscapes, delicious Italian food are only some of the main reasons to spend some time here, but I guess once tested it will be hard not to dream a return! One of the most typical accommodation in Tuscany is surely the “ Agriturismo “ a farm holiday, Villa I Barronci is a place to stay, I would say a must, located in the splendid San Casciano in Val di Pesa, in the Florence’s hills where famous Chianti vineyards grows.

 

The name of I Barronci has an ancient tradition taken from the very first owners of the place on the XII century, nowadays this beautiful building is at disposal offering rooms standard, superior and even beautiful suites, all with private bathroom, soundproof, air conditioning and heat, mini bar facility and wired internet , in sum all the in-room commodities of a nice modern structure supporting any kind of need. Breakfast is served every morning with incredibly amount of fresh products, fruits, home made brioches cakes and so on… in the evening at the restaurant in a friendly atmosphere, typical local dishes are served all accompanied with superb local wines, from Chianti Classico (of course) to Brunello di Montalcino or any other “super Tuscan”!.

 

A special mention I have to reserve it to the beautiful open air swimming pool, with a corner dedicated to hydro massage, the beauty of this place is hard to be explained in words !

 

San Casciano in Val di Pesa is very close to Florence only about 15 Km, but even the rest of the most important Tuscany cities are not far.

 

There would be much more to say about this charming Florence Hotel, but I strongly suggest a visit so that you will be able to experience personally.
