About this trip

Experience small town Italy like a local on our semi-independent trip… 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.

Got home last night after another fantastic trip with Globe Drifters. The Adriatic cruise went beyomd my expectations. The ship and room was top notch and the crew couldn't have been any better. What fun swimming from the ship daily and all off the ports were beautiful. Would do this one again. Linda C

This was my first rodeo with GD and it did not disappoint! I have traveled quite a bit and have expensive taste and can be quite picky, especially when it comes to lodging, so I was a little nervous about how things would go on the boat. Let me tell you, I've never slept better in my life! The accommodations were spectacular! The crew on the ship were kind and attentive (and they sure got a kick out of us :), and the food was amazing. The entire trip was well orchestrated and almost like a fairy tale as we cruised and swam in the open waters of the Adriatic (which is stunning) and hopping from town to town, each with its own unique charm and quality. And of course the company was magnificent--it was wonderful to make so many new friends. I HIGHLY recommend this trip. Croatia was all that I could have dreamed of and more. I will have to go back!

Don't hesitate. Go!! The views and sights on this trip are almost unreal ...they are that beautiful. The water is electric blue, calm and warm, so many very beautiful old churches and castles to explore at all the different ports, and the architecture is just incredible. The ship is both gloriously appointed and the rooms are comfortable. The crew on the ship made us feel pampered with every detail covered. The guide taught us so much about Croatia that was interesting and informative! The people of Croatia were inviting. I cant wait for more trips like this one from Globedrifters. Best one yet, and I didnt think they could get any better. Jodie is the most talented trip planner in the industry!

The Adriatic Cruise was the perfect blend of activities and relaxation. Our yacht, Melody, and home for 8 days was comfortable, spacious and immaculate. Croatia is rich in history with an abundance of beauty and preserved nature. I experienced an excellent introduction to the mainland, Dubrovnik and Split. Each of the islands had its own signature sights and activities. It was truly magical as we approached each island's port in the evening. Restaurants and shopping options varied by island. I always make new friends on GD trips and this one was no exception. Our common denominator is Jodie, of course. She's on top of every aspect of the trip and open to suggestions. But what makes her truly unique is her infectious laugh and upbeat personality. She always makes me smile.

I had a great time, with wonderful people, delicious food and comfortable accommodations on Melody, our yacht.! Kudos to the captain and staff for taking such good care of us and keeping us safe. Last but not list thanks to Jody and Andy for making this trip a memorable and fantastic experience.
