Italy celebrates her National Day today since 1946, and this iconic picture of the splendid Anna Iberti, from Milan, has been one of the most enduring images marking the passage of the country from Kingdom to Republic.
Just 24 years of age at the time, this joyous image was captured by the celebrated photographer Federico Patellani.

15-Day Italy (Amalfi, Siena, Cortina & Lake Como)

2. Hotels
The hotels booked for our trip were centrally located within easy reach of sights, shopping and restaurants. The rooms were clean, cozy with full amenities including coffee / tea making facilities. Hotel staff were friendly and helpful. Full buffet breakfast with a good spread was provided,
3. Guides and Drivers
These drivers and guides hired are experienced locally and are able to bring us to enjoy the delicious local food, explain clearly the history of each town, help us locate the restaurant of our choice, recommend the local food produce and products to buy.
4. Transportation
The cars arranged for us were comfortable and sufficient for 7 passengers as well as luggage and shopping.
5. Restaurants
The restaurants booked for our meals were impressive with delicious food, friendly waiting staff and good ambience.
Overall, we are pleased with the arrangements and service from Ergo Travel. They were quick to follow up on our request during the trip e.g. we asked for a bigger car to transfer all of us as well as our increased number of luggage from Cortina to Lake Como and a sprinter cargo van was arranged.
We will definitely recommend Ergo Travel to all who is keen to visit Italy.
