Family Memories Made: When a Vacation and Reunion Surpass All Expectations – PostcardZ from Victoria

Date:


Sharon contacted me on behalf of her family—cousin Ty, sister Anita, brother-in-law Charles, and their neighbor George—after receiving a referral from a previous client. They had specific travel dates in mind and an extensive “wish list”!

Planning for a month-long trip in Italy (our initial discussions started nearly a year in advance and planning began around eight months prior) proved to be perfectly timed.

With a lot of back-and-forth communication, we ultimately finalized an itinerary that covered their top destinations: Milan, Lake Como, Lucca (where they have family ties), a location in Umbria, and Rome!

I collaborated closely with my local destination experts, whom I have known and worked with for years. Together, we meticulously planned every detail to ensure that the Pantaleoni family’s vacation not only met but exceeded their expectations and ran smoothly…and it certainly did!

“We all agree that our trip was wonderfully arranged because of you, so what I write here will reflect our shared sentiment.”
-Sharon K. for the entire family

In Milan, then on to Lake Como: “Our favorite guide!…Wonderful reception…Another perfect day planned for us. Grazie.”

“The wisteria, rhododendrons, and camellias were in full bloom in Lake Como. Beautiful…Coming in April was a brilliant choice. You arranged an incredible trip for us.”

From their arrival in Milan onward, I consistently checked in to ensure everything was running as planned. After all, travel can be unpredictable, and my team and I want our clients to feel supported at every stage of their journey…

After all the careful planning, the final say always belongs to the client:

“From the punctuality, expertise, and friendliness of our drivers and guides upon our arrival in Milan to our departure in Rome, our well-coordinated trip by Victoria went flawlessly.
We enjoyed the luxury of a month in Northern Italy, with two weeks dedicated to connecting with our Italian heritage in the Lucca region.
Moreover, we shared with Victoria numerous places we wanted to explore. Her connections in Beautiful Liguria and Il Fontanaro resulted in an itinerary beyond our dreams. We couldn’t have accomplished this without her and her team.
We look forward to working with Victoria again and have already recommended her to other travelers.
Grazie.”
-Sharon K. for the Pantaleoni Family

“I have traveled around the world…and have never encountered a more stunning view. Thank you for introducing me to Il Fontanaro…”

Special experiences planned in Umbria included enjoying warm soup on a rainy day, learning how to shop the Italian way, and picking out pottery in Todi…

I have mentioned it before, and I will say it again; this is the greatest reward of my work! A fantastic, unforgettable vacation in this beautiful country! Everyone created cherished memories!

Memories made together...Memories made together...
Memories made together…all smiles!

“We wish we could start planning all over again!”

Loving living la dolce vita!
