There are some different ways to come and have a *real* tour of Le Marche with me.
A
whole week tour
A weekend break
Or simply a free day
Reservation: Check out the Calendar and email me!
Over the last few years, Le Marche has become more accessible from Europe, with direct flights Ryanair (from London Stanstead, or from Frankfurt plus train from Pescara or Forlì), Evolavia (from Paris, Barcelona, Moscow and Copenaghen), Lufthansa (from Munich) connect Ancona's "Raffaello Sanzio" airport with Europe on a regular basis. Most of them are low cost airlines; therefore coming to discover Le Marche is getting cheaper and cheaper. So don't hesitate and hop a plane, for a week or just a weekend, to have a walk in Loreto or Urbino; to take an icecream at Morelli's in Numana; to have a swim at Portonovo or Sirolo; or simply relax among the hills widespread in the region. And - of course - have a glass of wine!
Preface: although I like to joke, I also like to be serious while offering a service to you.
Here is me, here is my face, unfortunately I'm more than honest... now it's on you. I offer my total and personal guarantee.
As
a free-lance tour leader, if you are an English speaker, willing to visit Le
Marche from a ‘deeper’ point of view, well... I could be a good solution.

WHY YOU SHOULD CHOOSE ME:
Le Marche is a very less known region, so that you may feel lost, don't know what to do, and, at the end of the day, decide to go somewhere else more famous (Bologna, Venice and so on). Or simply, you like the view, but you don't know what to do the rest of the time. Moreover, it may happen that you pass by a great restaurant, museum, site, canteen or whatever, and you miss it. In a way, calling me is like giving me the keys ans say, "please, drive me, I wanna have a good time". And this is exactly what happens with me. Is it enough to come? :-)
I
will guide you throughout the region, explaining everything about the towns
that you would like to visit;
I can take you to places that it would not be
possible to go without me: canteens, vineyards, farms, small castles.
You will really taste Le Marche as a local inhabitant,
with the comfort and the relax of a tourist.
For a week, I organize and lead food-specific tours, with some tour operators. These tours are meant to discover the very heart of Le Marche and its inhabitants. Therefore, we arrange cookery lessons with either a chef or some old ladies (the best foods in Italy can be tasted in family homes), the famous Italian nonne (grandmas).
I am especially proud of these tours - they are the most expensive, but no doubt they are the tours you will definitely never forget. I've spent two years to set them completely. Every place, commencing from the Hotel, is definitely the best. Every wine chosen is definitely the best. Every food eaten is definitely the best. Every place we visit is definitely the best.
Moreover, you will enjoy fish as you've never done before, I guarantee.
During such a week you'll really feel as in a dream.
Reservation: no later than 1 month in advance. Blackout period: from about 20th June to about 7th September, since it's difficult to have a real wonderful week during the summer. For the rest, ask me for any information.
Prices:
they have to be discussed, it doesn't make sense to put a price for a whole
week.

A weekend break
For a weekend break, I offer very interesting opportunities to mix up luxury, comfort and real and genuine food and scenery. From Friday evening till Sunday evening, simply "turn-off" the brain, and have a dreaming break.
You can just ask me to be your guide for a weekend, or ask me for an informal (but serious) "package" tour: I'll think to the Hotel, the restaurants and everything, and you won't be let down.
Price:
For a free weekend break, 400 Euro + 60 Euro for every extra person. If a family
with 1-2-3 children under 18, 500 total. If more than 5 people, ask
me.
Special offers: Driving is included. The earlier, the
better!
Dates: Check out the calendar.
Reservation: no later than ten days before. If later, there
could be no chance to go. No black-out period, although it must be a problem
to add a Friday or a Monday to the weekend on July and August. Therefore, for
that period, just ask 3 weeks in advance.

A free day

WITHOUT
ME
You
could of course, decide to visit Le Marche on your own – I would prefer to help
and accompany you, but some people like to organise their own trips. In this
case, although I could be so sad and would cry for ages, please, send
me an email and I will let you know which places you should visit and some
suggestions of where to stay.
