The Gardens of Mandor

In The Shadow of Machu Picchu

It seems that at every turn in Peru, there is another spectacular view, another dramatic scene, another surprise.  Even at Machu Picchu, there is more to see than just the ancient citadel.  In the shadow of the great Incan Lost City, Mandor is a 4 km trek into the jungle where travelers on our small group tours to Peru and Machu Picchu can experience a botanical garden, wildlife and fauna.  Read more about our adventure to the Gardens of Mandor.

The Wonders of Florence

Small Group Tours to ItalyI've had the opportunity to travel to many places in Italy.  I have been to Rome several times as well as Venice and The Venetto Region (Padua, Vicenza, Verona) traveling by myself and with my small group tours to Italy.   The one place that has remained my favorite over the years is Florence (known as "Firenze" in Italy).   Take a look at my Italy blog post and see why I find Florence to be my favorite place to travel to in Italy.
