Bookings For You

Rather envious of the guests who checked in to the beautiful Villa Caruso yesterday. With views like this, what’s not to like?!! https://bookingsforyou.com/italy/italianlakes/villa-caruso/ #italy #italyvilla #italy🇮🇹 #italianlakes #italytravel #lakemaggiore

Another evening in #lucca at another incredible performance, this time of works by #Puccini and others. Make sure you’ve got the sound turned up! #opera #italianopera #italy #italy🇮🇹 #italytravel #italytrip #tuscany #music #musicvideo

Gorgeous #lucca has been the base for a few of the @bookings_for_you team over the last couple of weeks. It’s not time to leave just yet. But this week we also have members of the team heading to Puglia and Lake Maggiore. Can’t wait to see what they get up to on their travels. #italiansummer #summertime #italy #italytravel #italytrip #italy🇮🇹

Gorgeous (albeit super hot) afternoon in San Miniato in #tuscany

The birthplace of #puccini, Lucca is the perfect place to enjoy a taste of opera. Last weekend we enjoyed a wonderful evening of #opera here. Held in the church of San Giovanni, which has exceptional acoustics, two professional singers are accompanied by a pianist. We had the pleasure of listening to two incredible soprano singers but we’re already planning a return visit so that we can also experience a tenor singing too. For those visiting the city, these concerts can be enjoyed every Thursday, Friday, Saturday and Sunday. Concerts last approximately 1 hour.

We’re sampling some of the #wineries in #tuscany this afternoon. This way we can best advise our clients where to visit when they stay in one of our villas. @tenutaadamo is a great wine tasting experience if you want to try both red and white wines and want to really learn about wine production and tasting. Situated close to #lucca they can even help organise transport to and from the winery.

This morning we’re in #barga #tuscany. It’s included on the list of the most beautiful villages in Italy but it has another more unusual claim to fame too. It’s also widely regarded to be the most Scottish town in Italy! At the end of the 19th century a number of Italians emigrated from Barga to Scotland. This exodus continued during Mussolini’s rule. There were many returnees over the years and now up to 40% of present-day residents have Scottish relatives. Expect to hear a broad Italian accent one minute and a broad Glaswegian one the next! They have a Scottish festival each year as well as a fish n chips festival! #scottish #italian

This is where some of the @bookings_for_you team are currently staying just outside the walls of #lucca in #italy🇮🇹 Whilst some of us are manning the phones at our desks, they’ll be out and about in #tuscany - not that we’re jealous!! 😂 Later this month other team members will be in the Italian Lakes. It’s a busy month!

We have spent quite a bit of time in #Orvieto over the past few days as Villa L’Uva is situated just a 10 minute drive from this beautiful Umbrian city.
