Custom guidebooks for travelers to Italy
Want the autonomy and flexibility of traveling on your own? Created especially for RentVillas clients, self-guided tours from Italia Roadrunners are like having a guidebook written just for you.
Here’s how it works: Once you have booked your property, you can reserve this service through RentVillas. David Wagner will then contact you and give you an overview of interesting towns easily reachable from your villa. You choose the five you like best, and he’ll send you a packet of information which contains everything you need. Cultural and historical information takes you step by step through various landmarks, while lunch suggestions guide you to the best local dining spots. Beyond that, though, you’ll have all of those critical little details: estimating driving time, directions, parking suggestions, and more. It’s everything you need for a guided tour – when you want, and at your own pace.
About David Wagner: After a career as a Foreign Service officer, including three assignments to Italy, he returned to the U.S. and wanted to share his knowledge of Italian food, history, culture, and especially its small towns. The result was Italia Roadrunners. Most of David’s trip choices are in Tuscany and Umbria, but he has a few in the Veneto region of the northeast. All suggestions will be within reasonable driving distance of your villa.
FOR RESERVATIONS:
Please contact RentVillas (800) 726-6702 to make a 20% non-refundable deposit. Cost for the packet of five tours with other general travel information is $110. The balance will be paid by check after your choice of itineraries is made with David and before he prepares your packet. (For clients outside the U.S., David will add extra shipping charges and require a U.S. dollar check or money order for his payment. In addition, contact will be by email instead of telephone.) Please allow three to four weeks prior to your departure for preparation of the material.
