Going on a Trip to Italy, then this is a must read.

If your thinking of taking a tour of Italy, here are few things you should know.

There are a lot of apps & sites out there that make traveling so easy, but if you’re traveling with kids make sure to book in advance. We had an interesting time with some of the BnBs that we tried to book. One thing that you have to keep in mind is that you’re not in the States any longer. We’re use to staying in nice hotels where all the furniture is new looking and clean…not so much in Europe. Things are old and clean, but at first glance you might need to get use to that.  Another important accommodation some hotels and BnBs don’t have is an iron. Our recommendation is go out and by yourself one. It won’t be expensive and just keep it with you on your travels, other wise you’ll probably get some ugly stares your way.

Well on our trip in Italy we thought lets be adventurous; but once we found the Norcenni Girasole Club we knew this is where we would spend the rest of our trip. This place a had everything and something for everyone. They had swimming and lagoon pools, activities through-out the day, restaurants, bar, ice-cream parlor and new this year the funfair adventure area; which is a must for any child.

Let me recommended booking the Villa Norcenni. This is an old Tuscan farmhouse up at the peak of the Chianti area. They have studio, one-bedroom and two-bedroom apartments that look amazing & the views from the farmhouse are breath taking. Also the location is great, you’re close to all the sight-seeing cities. If you don’t feel like driving, don’t worry, for a very fair price you can take the bus for either full or half day tours of any city.

We think this was a great place to stay and looking forward to going back there again soon!
