The Experience
From the Ligurian Coast to Timeless Tuscany
How do you prepare for this adventure? First you walk, and practice stopping suddenly. So that you’ll be ready for the spontaneous views – colorful villages clinging to cliffs with waves crashing below. Then pick the most delectable Chianti you can find. It won’t match the Classico in Panzano but it’s good practice. Finally get your fill of just-off-the-boat fresh seafood, hearty pork and beef, friendly people, rows of cypress, warm sunlight, patchwork hills and the blue Mediterranean. And you’ve got a good start.
