So sit back, relax and let's wander the world together, one destination at a time. Are you ready? Let's get started.
Speaker 2:This is Z Michael Sim again, and I am here with the lovely Diana from Celtic Tours and we are learning that Celtic Tours is not just Celtic Tours. Celtic Tours is also in Italy, and Diana is talking about her lovely seven-night stay in Italy and she had a great time. So we were talking about day one, where they arrived and they enjoyed some wine and had a great meal, but now here we are day two. Where are we going, diana? Well, buongiorno.
Speaker 3:I'm still speaking Italian. So on day two we ended up going to Siena and San Gimignano Okay, spell that. So San Gimignano, yeah, okay. So it's S-A-N. Right, g-i-m, right, i-g-n-a-l-o. And I asked the locals how to say this and I'm still not sure I'm saying it right, right, but they said Jimmy, like Jimmy Cricket. So Gimignano Gimignano, it's Gimignano Gimignano.
Speaker 2:Well, that makes absolute sense because you know, pinocchio was an Italian story. Yeah, it was, yes, and Jiminy Cricket and Jiminy Cricket there we go there, you go.
Speaker 3:Yeah, absolutely. So that's how they told me how to pronounce it, so hopefully I'm pronouncing it correctly and forgive me anybody who might be Italian out there.
Speaker 2:So, again, you're staying at the lovely Villa Casa Grande, Villa Casa Grande, which is where it's in Figlin, valdenaro, valdenaro, yep, and this is outside of it's, right, outside of Florence.
Speaker 3:It's about 20 kilometers from Florence, between Siena and Arezzo, right in the heart of Tuscany. Nice, beautiful, beautiful 14th century hotel, villa, Fabulous.
Speaker 2:So now you're on your way. Day two everybody gets into a beautiful motor coach and you're heading to Well, we have breakfast Incredible.
Speaker 3:Every day we have breakfast included and it's right there at the villa. Give us an example, what did you have? Well, it's very American. Very American, yes, because they have so many American tourists there. So it was a buffet, kind of a buffet style. Okay, so they did have pastries and of course, the yogurts and fruits and eggs and sausage, which I was thrown back.
Speaker 2:Right, that surprises me, it does.
Speaker 3:It surprised me as well. But of course, you know, my most favorite thing was a cappuccino. Oh yeah, a double espresso cappuccino. Oh, you're getting ready for the day You're getting ready, for the day you are powered. And remember they're small there. They're not real big. The copies are really small.
Speaker 2:So I had to get a double espresso cappuccino. Still packed that energy, oh my goodness, that was amazing.
Speaker 3:And again, it was just the face style and you can come and go as you please. And again, it is included. We do include breakfast daily in your package, so you don't have to worry about it.
Speaker 2:So on this particular Italian tour, breakfast is included every day. Correct, fabulous, okay. So now you had this lovely breakfast. Everybody's full and ready to hit the road.
Speaker 3:Yep, we're all full and we go ahead and all meet in the lobby and we jump on the motorcoach and the motorcoach takes us to Siena. Tell me about Siena. So Siena is located right in the central part of Italy and it's the capital city of the province, of actual Siena itself, and we did a walking tour. So we actually had somebody there who took us on the tour. It was about an hour by motorcoach south from where we were staying, so we jumped on the motorcoach.
Speaker 2:It took about an hour to get there. Correct, correct.
Speaker 3:It's about an hour an hour and 15 minutes. You know, motorcoach doesn't go quite as fast as a car would go, right, so but it was about an hour an hour and a half fast as a car would go Right.
Speaker 2:So, but it was about an hour, an hour and a half, but it's nice on a lot of cars. You're looking at the sights, you're seeing the scenery, you don't have to worry about driving yourself.
Speaker 3:It's very comfortable. I mean, the motor coach is so comfortable and nice and our driver was amazing. We had the same driver all week long. Nice, just amazing. So, yeah, it was very, very nice. So then we go ahead and we get to Siena and we meet our tour guide and of course, our tour guide took us all through Siena and told us all about the history of Siena. I'll share just a few highlights because I don't want to give too much information. Then nobody will ever want to go Right. So I'll just share a few of the highlights of Siena and tell you a little bit about the history. And, of course, one of the major points of Siena is that it was a major banking in the 13th and 14th century. Wow, now remember, the Medici's are the ones who started the banking. So for Siena to be a part of that was really, really large. So they actually still have the oldest bank in the world is located there in Siena. It's called Monte di Paci, I believe it is.
Speaker 2:Paci.
Speaker 3:Monte di Paci, okay, and it is still a running bank to this day.
Speaker 2:Still working, still operational, still operational.
Speaker 3:Now, is it a big city? It is. Actually it's a very large city and it's very hilly. So I would recommend this tour, this particular city. If you do have challenges walking, you can take it at your own pace. You do not have to say with the tour, right, if you decide that you don't want to do the tour, that's okay. You can go ahead and say I'm going to do this at my own pace because there's a lot of hills, a lot of up and down on the hills with this particular city.
Speaker 3:So I would say day one, this first day, was probably the most strenuous walking-wise because there were so many hills and she took us on all of this. Now are the hills, cobblestone streets, they are. They are, so they're not easy to kind of navigate on. Right. I mean they do have some sidewalk areas where the stores and things are when it's dry, right, but they're so small so it's very difficult to kind of use them.
Speaker 2:Now, if somebody is deciding to not walk with the tour, you know they just let their driver know, or the tour guide know that they're going to just wander and they'll say, okay, meet back at the motor coach at such and such a time. Now are there places there that they can sit and rest?
Speaker 3:like a park bench or something like that. Oh, there's all kinds of locations. There's all kinds of little cafes where they can stay, they can get a coffee or a gelato, you know, because you got to have a good gelato while you're in Italy and there's gelato everywhere, so they were doing a tour that I'm sure was including the history of the town.
Speaker 2:Correct, correct, it tells you more about the history.
Speaker 3:They take you into, of course, all the piazzas. There's a lot of piazzas in the area, right, so they take you to all the piazzas. So we did have a few people who decided halfway through the tour say you know, okay, where can we meet you? And then I just went ahead and explained where to meet us and I made sure that I went and picked them up and got them back to the motor coach on the time that we decided that we were going to do that on, because it was a little strenuous and, again, celtic Tours allows people to do this.
Speaker 2:Of course, you know it gives the people a little bit of a break in case they are a little bit challenged with all the up and the down of the hills and the cobblestones and it can be rough and I always tell people make sure you pack comfortable walking shoes. Yes, very, very important.
Speaker 3:This is not a tour where you need to be worried about how you look 100% of the time. You do not have to be dressed to the nines and heels or anything like that. You want to be very, very comfortable. What was? The weather like. During the day it was probably in the 40s, in the evening time Right, and then it got up to the high 60s, 70s during the day.
Speaker 3:So beautiful weather, right, beautiful. And it was strange because I'd have a jacket on and then, during the day, when the sun came out and I'm walking in the sun I would get hot, so I'd take my jacket off, then I'd get in the shade and I'd be cold again. I'd have to put my jacket back on. So layering is always a good idea. So how long did you stay in Siena? So we were in Siena for about probably about two hours total.
Speaker 2:Oh you just went half an hour. That's not very long.
Speaker 3:No, not that long Again we did the tour. We had a little bit of time after the tour to do some shopping before we went ahead and Grab a gelato.
Speaker 2:Yeah.
Speaker 3:Actually we went ahead and broke for lunch. Oh, okay, you know for a little short lunch before we wanted to go to our next stop and did the tour guide tell you which places were good to eat. Yes, Okay, yeah, very informative. Explained to Kiss where she dropped us off. She just let us know it was the Piazza del Campo, and the Piazza del Campo actually is very, very famous for horse races that they have there every year Two horse races riding around?
Speaker 2:Yes, riding around in that? Yes, I've seen that.
Speaker 3:So the people are like right in the middle and the horses are running around the piazza right there. So that's kind of where she dropped us off, right in the middle of the piazza. And then she said you know, don't eat in the piazza because it's a little touristy and a little more expensive. And there were so many streets right outside of the piazza with some nice cafes or restaurants.
Speaker 2:She kind of guided you, she kind of gave us an idea of where to go. Yeah, it was very nice. So now you went to here and you had something. What did you have for lunch?
Speaker 3:So actually I didn't have anything for lunch because I did some shopping.
Speaker 2:I only had a short time. Diane is shopping.
Speaker 3:I know I had to do some shopping, so I actually walked around and did a lot of shopping.
Speaker 2:That's good, but I did get a gelato.
Speaker 3:Oh okay, a lemon gelato, which is one of my favorites. So it's just really refreshing, especially when it's hot. Yeah, it's just very, very refreshing. So I did get a gelato. I was again with some other people, so we stopped, got the gelato. They had a coffee and a gelato.
Speaker 2:Right, we kind of took a break, so we took a break.
Speaker 3:Yeah, and then we met everybody after lunch and a lot of people went to a pizzeria that was right around the corner. Oh, my goodness, as we walked by this pizzeria, the window, these pizzas were huge. Oh really, it's the largest pizza I've probably have ever seen. Wow, and you buy it by the slice?
Speaker 2:Oh, yeah, and it's almost an entire pie.
Speaker 3:I'm not kidding, it was just a huge piece of pizza and they had all different types of styles Did. Did anybody in the group have a pizza?
Speaker 2:Yes, they did, and that's what I'm. Yeah, did you?
Speaker 3:ask. I did, I said so. Where did everybody eat as soon as we got on the Metro Coach?
Speaker 2:How did they?
Speaker 3:like it. Everybody ate. Oh, it was so good.
Speaker 2:They liked it. They said it was so good. Yeah, of course, pizza in Italy. You can't go wrong, because people will realize that pizza in Italy is.
Speaker 3:And different regions serve different pizza yes, so, like you have the Sicilian, which is thicker, yes, and this particular is very thin, you know, with just an outside crust. So different all over Italy, which is very interesting.
Speaker 2:So people enjoyed everything that they were doing. They had the nice things. Now everybody gets back on the motorcoach.
Speaker 3:Yep, we get back on the motorcoach and where are you going? And then we went to San Jimmy. There we go. I'm going to say Jiminy Cricket, yeah, jiminy Cricket. So did you go north, south, east, west? So this is actually kind of a west, northwest from where we were located. Okay so we almost kind of did a full circle that day, so we did northwest, and how long did it take you to go from it was about another a little over an hour.
Speaker 3:Another hour, another hour on the bus, another hour, which was good because everybody is eating. So they were relaxed.
Speaker 2:They had a lot of walking, so it was a good little break.
Speaker 3:Yep, it was a great little break. And this town is known for towers and there are five towers. They have towers, these large towers, all over the city.
Speaker 2:And when you're saying you mean like the Leaming Tower of Pisa town?
Speaker 3:No, they're like church towers cathedral towers. They just have all of these towers and they were actually used. Some of the towers were used in the times for security purposes. You know, to look to see when the enemy was coming Right.
Speaker 2:that's where the guards were.
Speaker 3:And both of these locations are UNESCO locations heritage sites. Yeah, both of them. So because of the buildings, the 14th, 15th century buildings, so Siena and San Gimignano.
Speaker 2:Now were you near water at all?
Speaker 3:No, not really Not these two, there wasn't too much water, and again both towns, a lot of hills.
Speaker 2:A lot of hills, yeah both these towns. So the first day that you're really in working Italy is a lot of walking a day.
Speaker 3:But these locations are a lot of walking, a lot of hills.
Speaker 2:So did you have the same tour guide when you went? We?
Speaker 3:did have the same tour guide, she actually met us there.
Speaker 2:Oh, okay.
Speaker 3:So after our lunch and everything, she says I'll meet you there. And we met her there and she did our tour for there as well. Okay, now, what did she bring you to see in this town? Tour for there as well. Okay, Now, what did she bring you to see in this town? So we actually went to see a lot of the architecture in this town. It's very Gothic in this town and the buildings in the churches again back to the 14th or 15th century. We had to go through several different piazzas, one which was the Piazza Duomo. It's one of the most beautiful churches, gorgeous marble church, and the area is also known for, of course, the cheeses and the wines, they're very very well known for their wines, and that's in this area.
Speaker 2:Yes, in this particular area.
Speaker 3:And they have award-winning wines there at San Gimeno.
Speaker 2:Now I have to ask did you buy any bottles and send them home? I did More than what?
Speaker 3:More than two? I sent quite a few. So yeah, so you know, every time you go to a different winery you got to buy something.
Speaker 2:Got to buy something, so it was really really good. Now I got to ask you a question. Did you have it with you or did you have them send it Some?
Speaker 3:of them I had sent home and I took. I'm able you're actually able to take two bottles with you.
Speaker 2:Right Per person on the plane.
Speaker 3:So I did pack two bottles with me because I wanted to have something when I got home. But you're lucky, yeah, yeah.
Speaker 2:I one time packed a bottle of wine just filling across the country and because of the cabin pressure, the bottle burst. Oh wow, yeah. So I had red wine all over my clothing, oh no. So I always do recommend people send it home, yeah.
Speaker 3:Yeah, but I did wrap it up in jeans and I wrapped it up in a sweater, made sure that was nice and packed Right and I had no problems. They both came home. But yeah, you do take the risk of them bursting or popping or breaking and then having wine all over your clothes.
Speaker 2:So you went to all of these different places and you learned more about the wine and the cheese. Did you actually see them doing homemade?
Speaker 3:cheese? No, we didn't see any of that because, again, it was more of a walking tour and more about the history of the town Did you get to eat any of the cheeses. I did, of course. Actually, we were able to try some of the cheeses at different locations and we bought some cheese, and you can't take cheese back with you, you just can't take any meats but you can take cheeses, so I ended up, I think, with six different cheeses at the end of my whole stay and you brought that on the plane with you and I brought that.
Speaker 3:Oh, I actually stuck it in my suitcase. So yeah, with the wine.
Speaker 2:It wasn't like the I Love Lucy episode where she was putting the cheese in all the instruments. No, no, no, nothing like that. So that sounds like another long tour, but a nice, nice walk. Now, I'm assuming that they walked at a decent pace. You're not racing through the town, no, not at all.
Speaker 3:Walk at a decent pace. You're not racing through the town. No, not at all. Not at all. As a matter of fact, there were a few people again. I did have a few older people who had some challenges walking. So, I just let her know ahead of time. I let the tour guide know ahead of time. Listen, we do have some people so you could just wash the pace a little bit, and she was very, very good about that at both places, both locations. Very nice so she didn't like take off and lose us.
Speaker 2:And of course she's speaking English. She did speak English.
Speaker 3:We also had those little whispers Right, you know the little headsets, so we were able to hear her. So even if we fell back a little bit, we were still able to hear everything that she was talking about. Because, again, a lot of us like to window shop.
Speaker 2:And of course we didn't want to lose the group.
Speaker 3:But you know, as you're listening now, and so yeah.
Speaker 2:I mean, you're only there once, right, Right. So now you're in these two little towns and doing some exploring on your own and things like that. Are you finding that people are speaking any English?
Speaker 3:They do A lot of those places are very touristy.
Speaker 1:Oh are they yeah.
Speaker 3:So they do. A lot of people do speak English. I mean, there are some that obviously don't. And you know I've tried a little bit of Italian. My Italian is not great, but you know it was easy enough.
Speaker 2:But you can get by. You can get by Because a lot of people they refuse to speak the language and I'm always telling people, wherever you go, just find a few phrases Like where's the bathroom? You know things like that. How much, thank you, yeah, hello, right, yeah. So I always tell people just learn a few phrases. But now, with the technology that's out there, I just seen this thing the other day. It's an earpiece that you put in your ear and as you're talking or they're talking, it converts to the language that you're in. I wish I had that hype. It's brand new.
Speaker 3:I didn't know about that brand language that you're in. I wish I had that. It's brand new. I didn't know about that. Yeah, brand new. But you're absolutely right. With all the technology, nowadays you can just put your phone onto a translator and have them speak into it and it'll tell you exactly what they're saying. Yes, exactly what they're saying, and then you can speak into it. Show them exactly what you're trying to say.
Speaker 3:So, there is a lot of technology. I didn of those old-fashioned people who like to try and speak and they appreciate it.
Speaker 2:They do appreciate that. That's what I always try to tell people. They know that you don't know how to speak the language, but they appreciate the fact that you're trying to communicate with them in their own language. Even if they speak fluent English, they still like that. Even if you say thank you or goodbye or something in their language, they appreciate it. So that's the tip of the day Learn a few words of the language that you're going to, and it doesn't have to be a lot.
Speaker 3:No, like I said, banjo.
Speaker 2:No, that's a good one, grazie, grazie, grazie. There you go.
Speaker 3:And quarta questa.
Speaker 2:All right, have knowledge, right, that's a good one. Yeah, now you're in this town, and again for a couple of hours.
Speaker 3:Yep, we were there for a couple hours and then— Now, what time of the day is it? At this point, it's probably around 1 or 2. Actually, it's probably 2 o'clock 3 o'clock, Later in the afternoon.
Speaker 2:Later in the afternoon because—.
Speaker 3:You know, by the time we left it was 9 o'clock and then an hour drive, and then we had a couple hours at Santa. Right and then another hour drive and then a couple hours here. So by the time we got back it was, you know, probably around 4, 35 o'clock 4 o'clock when we got back to the villa.
Speaker 2:Yeah, yeah, okay it was about 4, 35 o'clock by the time we got back, and then did we have another nice dinner. We did, we did.
Speaker 3:So I made sure that we had two very, very nice group dinners, okay, along with some cooking classes in the future that I'll tell you all about. Pizza making class, so we really spent a lot of time as a group together. That's nice. That's nice. We really really enjoyed it. Everybody got along so well. It was just really nice. And for those who didn't want to, if they wanted to go off and do something else. They didn't have to participate.
Speaker 2:They can go and do something else. They can do what they wanted, which makes it nice. Yeah, it does. It does. It's always nice to be able to be with a group or even to wander with your own family. If you're with a few family members that want to do something different, yeah, so it gives you that freedom. Yeah. And again, Celtic Tours puts all of this together. It puts the tours together, it puts the meals together. You say you breakfast every day? Yeah, breakfast every day. Which is nice. You never have to worry about starving.
Speaker 3:No, you don't.
Speaker 2:I'll tell you as much walking as I did and I did a lot of walking, I still gained two pounds. Oh yeah, you're always walking in Europe, that's for sure. And again, this was one of your harder days because you did a lot of walking.
Speaker 3:I have to say the first day was probably the hardest, the hardest, hardest of them all.
Speaker 2:Yeah, so get in shape for the first tour day. Yeah, yeah.
Speaker 3:And again, you can do things differently you know, Siena and San Gimignano are close they're the closest together. So they kind of do those on the same day. But if you want to put something together and you want to do Siena one day and something else another day, or just we can do anything. We can kind of customize it any way that we want.
Speaker 2:And again, it's based on this in particular facility, the Villa Casa Grande, correct, yeah? And if they say well, I heard the podcast, I want to do the Villa Casa Grande, but I'm not necessarily wanting to do this tour or that tour, I want to do something else that can be done as well.
Speaker 3:Yeah, we can arrange to customize anything for them. Yeah, and even if somebody wants to just do something on their own, we can arrange where they can take the train. We can do your rail for you, we can arrange your train tickets, which is really, really easy, and so inexpensive over there. My daughter loves to take the rail overseas. It's so nice, so nice, and you can be in Florence in 30 minutes.
Speaker 2:Oh yeah, nice, yeah. So if you just want to get the direct one, yeah, you can be there in 30 minutes. Oh nice, yeah. So if you just want to go as long as you get the direct one, yeah, you can be there in 30 minutes. Yeah, and Celtic Tours can arrange this. Of course, so I don't have to worry about. Am I getting on the right train? You know if it's the right ticket I'm supposed to be getting.
Speaker 3:Celtic Tours finds it tours for you. So if you want to go to museums in Florence and see the. Statue of David which will be coming in the future.
Speaker 2:I'll tell you all about. Oh yeah, that's coming. Another Statue of David. Now it's CelticTourscom, correct. Correct, that's the website. Yep, do you have pictures of this hotel on the website?
Speaker 3:We actually do. If you go to CelticTourscom go into our destinations Italy you'll see towards the very, very bottom, our Tuscan Delight package. Tuscan Delight, yes, it's called Tuscan Delight and you'll see it on the very, very bottom of the Italian page and you can just click right there and it'll take you into. This is actually this one was customized a little bit, but it'll give you one of our five-night tours that we have there and it'll show you the villa as well.
Speaker 2:That's nice, because people are going to say I want to see what it looks like, Of course. I want to see what it looks like yeah, of course.
Speaker 3:You know, I just can't. It's hard to describe how beautiful this place is. It's just an amazing think about it. You're staying in a place that was built in the 14th century, you know, in the late 1300s, yes, and it sounds like you can really relax there.
Speaker 2:As you said, it has a spa, it has an indoor pool. You can relax there one day and then maybe go in on the train to Florence or, you know, go somewhere else, and Celtic Cruise can put all of that together, of course, which I love that. Now, this is day two. Where are we going? Give us a teaser. We're going on day three.
Speaker 3:We did have dinner. You want to know what?
Speaker 2:we had for dinner. Yeah, I forgot about dinner.
Speaker 3:So that evening we did have dinner as a group again.
Speaker 2:Right.
Speaker 3:And we had a boars meat bolognese pasta. A bolognese pasta? Ooh, bolognese pasta. Yes, it was made with boar's meat, with boar's meat yeah, so it's pork.
Speaker 2:Again, it's a pork, yeah, it's pork.
Speaker 3:Yeah.
Speaker 2:And that was, oh my goodness, Now was the meat tender.
Speaker 3:Well, it was ground.
Speaker 2:So they made a bolognese with the ground boar's meat.
Speaker 3:Yeah, it was so, just so good. I had two helpings of that. Europe eats a lot of wild game.
Speaker 2:They do so, you know, and wild game is supposed to be pretty healthy for you?
Speaker 3:Yeah, because it doesn't have all the everything in it. Well, and I didn't taste it. I didn't feel like it was so gamey because of the way it was seasoned and prepared, so I didn't really taste it. It didn't taste gamey to me, and then afterwards there was a beef dish with it was with roasted potatoes.
Speaker 3:I'm not a real big beef eater. I had just a little bit, but the roasted potatoes were just so good. And then for dessert we had, so it's an after-dinner liqueur. Okay, and they give you a biscotti, oh a biscotti, and you take the biscotti and you dip it into the liqueur.
Speaker 2:Right.
Speaker 3:And then you eat it Right, and that was Yummy, yummy.
Speaker 2:Yummy, yummy, yummy. Now, because your person that is a vegetarian was there, I'm sure that she had a separate meal altogether. She did, she, did she had.
Speaker 3:She didn't have the. Obviously it was a bolognese.
Speaker 2:Right.
Speaker 3:She had another pasta dish they prepared just specifically for her, and then they made a vegetarian meal for her. I didn't ask what it was, because she was sitting at a different table. I was just, I was involved in my food at that point, because it was a lot of walking that day. So I was really, really, I was ready. I was ready for some food.
Speaker 2:Now did you do anything afterwards after dinner? No, that was it for me.
Speaker 3:Everybody relaxed, that was it for me for that eating. A lot of people did go into town and go get a limoncello again.
Speaker 2:Oh, there was a few of them that ventured out.
Speaker 3:We had a very nice mix of age ranges. We had people from anywhere from their 30s into their 70s on this particular tour.
Speaker 2:Wonderful, so it was a really great mix of ages.
Speaker 3:That's good to know. And again— and you said you had a- teenager on the tour too.
Speaker 2:We did. We had the teenager.
Speaker 3:Yep, we had the family with the teenager yeah, so it was a really really good mix, wonderful.
Speaker 2:Well, thank you again for coming and talking about Celtic Tours in Italy, I don't believe it. But yeah, it is, and you can go right to CelticTourscom and look at it yourself. They can see these nice places that you're going to and they can contact their travel advisor and say you know, I heard Celtic Tour is supposed to Italy and they can find out too. Oh yeah, so thank you for coming and I can't wait to hear about day three.
