This is La Dolce Vita ........

After a year of painstaking restoration the fabulous Lamborghini Miura is ready to be shown off to the world. The car is magnificent and our sister company Cheshire Classic Cars have restored this wonderful super car to its former glory. Think Italian Job (the original of course) and Matt Munroe's voice in the background. Think wind in the hair, Alpine views and Mediterranean sunshine - this is the Miura!! From superb classic cars, wonderful travel opportunities and private jet travel from the airport of your choice at the time of your choice. This is the Grand Tourist and Cheshire Classic Cars experience. Janet, Naomi, Rachel & Holly await your call - www.grand-tourist.com


Siena

Posted by: janet in Italy - La Dolce VitaComing soon on

I was lucky enough to have lunch in the famous Campo of Siena yesterday - I'd strongly recommend lunch in this historic and magical square. Why not travel to Siena next summer and witness The Palio - a spectacular horse race that takes place in this magnificent square! We are planning on taking a room in a palazzo over-looking the Campo - give me a call or an e mail if you'd like to join us! janet@grand-tourist.com

Visiting Florence in the summer months is a magical experience. The Uffizi Gallery offers a magnificent range of paintings and the finest collection of work by artisit Botticelli in the world - including The Birth of Venus' and 'Primavera' (Springtime).

 The city itself is a living museum with wonderful piazzas, palaces and panoramas.... The view from the Piazzale Michelangelo over the city to the Duomo and Palazzo Vecchio is sublime. Florence is great for shopping too - from luxury designer wear around Piazza della Signoria to the jewellery shops of the Ponte Vecchio and the 'outlets' of Montevarchi.

Following the River Arno upstream towards the hills is a breath-taking experience. The villages of Bibbiene and Poppi are found on the road to Arezzo - probably one of the most scenic roads in Italy.

 To enjoy the Valley of the River Arno and Florence this summer contact Janet, Holly, Rachel or Naomi now to plan your original and fascinating trip to Tuscany. www.grand-tourist.com
