Notes From Some Of Our Clients.
"Without Rhonda and Lisa,
Carmel and I would never have discovered this crystal clear grotto.
Only their local guides can take you in and out by boat when the tides are just right."
"We can’t thank Lisa and Rhonda enough
for finding us 'our discovery'
– natural thermal pools the Romans engineered into what are now an amazing temperature regulated immersive experience different in each 'pool' - all in an island paradise."
"Our Secret Italy introduced us to the aristocratic family who have hunted truffles in their forest for centuries.
With Raphaello the truffle sniffing dog we found the first white truffles of the season.
After our trek through the woods we sat for a three course lunch in the grand dining room.
All the hand prepared dishes were prepared and garnished with the treasures we had unearthed with our digging trowels
- unbelievable!!!"
