Escapes

A quiet, design-led week through Puglia's coast and countryside: sea light and cliff towns first, then olive groves, a masseria, one proper cooking class and the white hill towns. Enough structure to feel cared for, never over-programmed. Also in 3 or 5 days.

A sample 12-14-day journey: Alghero to Cagliari to Marmilla
This journey follows the western side of Sardinia, from Alghero’s sea walls and the north-west coast to Cagliari, then into the Marmilla countryside. Towns, prehistoric sites and the coast each get time. The exact pace depends on you.

Two seasonal sample journeys of 7-10 days each
Choose early May for Sant’Efisio and southern Sardinia, or autumn for village weekends in Barbagia. Each is a separate journey, adapted to your dates.

A ten-day Italy road trip itinerary from Rome to the foot of the Alps that skips the famous cities almost entirely - hill towns, thermal springs, a Renaissance court, and a wooden bridge over the Brenta.

A cultural, artisan-led route through the south of Puglia: Lecce's baroque center, a morning with local makers, then a masseria by the sea near Otranto. Intimate, thoughtful, and never rushed.

A family trip to Italy across three generations: seventeen days from the Sicilian coast through the Amalfi Coast to Rome -with a stop in the village the family’s grandparents left behind.

A sample 14-day journey: Gallura to Barbagia
Why cross from sea to mountain? Start around San Pantaleo, among granite shores and artisan workshops. The second half moves inland to the Supramonte, canyon paths and village kitchens. This sample route can change with your dates and interests.
