"An immersive experience of the Italian culture!"

Absolutely outstanding!!!! The CDV Team went above and beyond to ensure we "lived" a cultural experience in the heart of Soriano and the Tuscany and Umbria regions! Can't wait for our next CDV trip!

"CDV is an AWESOME FAMILY"

Food, more food; wine and more wine; amazing cooking experiences at the Villa Eddarella; amazing hosts and guest that became a CDV Family

"A vacation of a lifetime!!"

This was more than a tour, it was an adventure that brought new friends, great wine and a love for the family I now have in Italy!

Took my wife and daughter, joining my sister and a good friend in Soriano. This is our second trip, and it was just as excellent and fun as the first.

Our day on Mt. Etna and the salt flats were my favorite.
