Discover the best of Morocco and its local culture in a small group… From ancient medinas to vast Saharan dunes; Morocco’s enchanting landscapes will mesmerize and transport you back in time. Haggle for spices and textiles in bustling souks, sleep under an immense blanket of twinkling stars in the Sahara Desert, and caravan by camel just like Berber nomads.

The Blue City: Chefchaouen’s brilliant blues will engulf you for 3 days and 2 nights whereas many groups skip it or just do a quick stop.

Beat the crowds and visit Turkey in tranquility… No one likes to travel to amazing, awe-inspiring places and swim through seas of oblivious tourists taking a million selfies. Our trip has been carefully planned to beat the crowds so that you can actually see and enjoy the bucketlist sites in Turkey as well as some unique, off-the-beaten-path things.

Queen Cleopatra’s ancient pools: Swim among the famous Roman temple’s ruins in these pools steeped in history just a few hours before closing to avoid crowds and have the place to yourself!

Private Bosphorus River cruise: Sail on your own private yacht and explore lesser-known, intimate estates along the riverfront.

Pamukkale (Cotton Castle): Stay the night for a sunset visit to avoid the hordes of day-trippers.

Off-the-beaten-path Greek island paradise… Naxos is an authentic Greek island in the Cyclades away from the masses of tourists. It is the perfect mix of sandy beaches, stunning turquoise waters, olive groves, mountains, and local traditions. Naxos is also Zeus’ childhood home and boasts wonderful Greek food as well as amazing hospitality!

Beaches: Sun-soaked and radiant, Naxos is a great location to take some time and relax in the many sun loungers on the beach.

See what few tourists see: Visit Naxos’ inland which most visitors skip. Take in the charming Greek villages and majestic mountain ranges on the Cyclades’ largest island.

Boat life!: Channel your inner James Bond as you speed around in a boat to the idyllic village of Naoussa on Paros and the picture-perfect beaches in and around Naxos.

Stay in a boutique hotel located in the peaceful countryside of Naxos but just a 15-minute walk into the island’s old town (with a grocery store and plenty of cafes & restaurants) and a 10-minute walk to some of the most beautiful beaches in the Aegean Sea (with umbrella and beach chair rental available!)

Experience small town Italy like a local… Tuscany conjures up dreams of life at a slower pace where you can soak in the culture, food, and picturesque vistas of the Italian countryside. Stroll through narrow passageways of medieval villages perched on hilltops. Pick out cheese & wine at the market in town and chat with the locals. Then, head back to your 18th-century villa passing olive groves in time for an amazing sunset. Tuscany is the dream vacation and now is your chance!

Live like a local: Sip on espresso & people-watch at a sidewalk cafe in town. Stop by the local grocery store for provisions to prepare a family-style meal in the villa’s fully-equipped kitchen. End the day with a glass of fine wine in your new home.

Ideal location: Most villas in the region are 7 kilometers on average to the closest town & you’d need a rental car during your trip. Our villa is only a 15 to 20-minute walk into town with charming shops, cafes, and restaurants.

Discover Italy: Many of Tuscany & Umbria’s most famous towns are only 30 – 45 minutes away from the villa so you can explore all the best locations in the region without going far.
