We returned last week from the most amazing trip of our lifetime on the North Continental tour! Our fabulous tour leader Chiara De Marchis was the best we could have asked for as she took care of every detail and attended to any of our needs with care, compassion and expertise! Her sense of humor also made each day more memorable! We met such wonderful people, ate the best foods in Italy and awed in the views of every city we visited. These are just a small sample of the photos I took that highlights part of our memorable trip! I'm so thankful I chose Perillo to experience my first trip to Italy and the beginning of more trips with them! Grazie!!
