From our first WhatsApp messages to our in-person meeting, our group just clicked. Learning about each other and discovering commonalities led to genuine friendships. Encouraging shouts and peals of laughter echoed through the hills despite, or because of the inclines, and even early breakfasts became moments of connection over espressos. This group was certainly MORE in every way.
The accommodation was exceptionally comfortable and homely - not just “MORE than expected”, truly outstanding. The people we encountered (mini bus drivers, e-bike guide, the oenologist, and all the wonderful women at La Belle Agriturismo were MORE learned, MORE fluent, MORE engaging and MORE patient - always ready with a laugh or a helping hand and even indulgent of foreigners wanting to help shell the roasted chestnuts - we left with both knowledge and bottles.
There are so many descriptors for Vania who was so much MORE than a guide: a cheerleader, an inspiration, and a source of empowerment. She led us with enthusiasm, kindness and generosity, never judgment, and brought a wicked sense of humour that made every moment memorable. Vania gave MORE than anticipated in every way, and her presence made the experience unforgettable. Showcasing her home region and providing us with a glimpse of the wonders to be found in the prosecco hills and pre-Alps, she is MORE than a gem, she is jewel.
If life is made of moments, this trip was a mosaic of MORE - MORE laughter, MORE flavour, MORE beauty, and MORE soul. It was MORE than I ever imagined, and I wouldn’t change a thing.
Stop considering and start packing. It was MORE than a trip; it was a journey of connection, discovery, and joy. Whether you're seeking adventure, culture, or simply a deeper kind of travel, this is the kind of experience that stays with you. I recommend it to anyone ready for something truly unforgettable, something MORE.
