Gather for a home-cooked lunch with a gracious Czech family, or arrive at an agriturismo farmhouse for an olive oil tasting and lunch of Tuscan specialties.
Back on your bike, cycle through the white villages of Spain, or encounter the beauty of California’s Russian River Valley.
It’s time for a late-afternoon amble to a local Polish café in medieval Sandomierz. Or perhaps a stroll along the beaches of Sweden’s Öresund..
It’s grand to get together for our included dinners, but we always leave a few meals available so you can try local restaurants on your own. How about handmade spaghetti with mussels and tomatoes in Sicily?
The stars are lovely framed by the sea and rolling hills of Tuscany. Consider a nightcap: a fragrant, ice-cold jenever in The Netherlands or a glass of local red wine on the terrace strung with twinkling lights in Puglia.
