I'm the director of Il Chiostro and we organize arts workshops in Tuscany in May and June. (
www.ilchiostro.com) They say that with the bad comes some good. Well, in this unfortunate economy here is a terrific opportunity to travel to Italy.
Il Chiostro has had to change its venue - we've upgraded to a premium class restored monastery in the Chianti hills called San Fedele. But for this season only, we are keeping our old prices, even for the bargain we call "Recession Expression". That means you can spend a week with us for $1,500 if you want to explore on your own, or $1,995 if you want to take one of our classes in painting or photography or cooking.
That includes:
- 7 nights at incredible San Fedele (
www.borgosanfedele.com)
- breakfast and dinner by our chef
- pickup in Florence
- excursions to Siena
- winery tour and tasting
- optional workshop with an English speaking instructor
Combine that with the airfare bargains currently available and the improved $/Euro exchange rate and it's likely that this value for this price won't happen again for a long time. So it might be an unfortunate time for our economy, but it is a great time to travel to Italy!
