Special Edition:  Reporting from Le Langhe

Dear Friends – It’s been an interesting year so far, to say the least! Slowly but steadily things have gotten back to normal here in Piemonte and in Italy. As we write, the Italian Government just decided for the next few months’ health policies to keep us all safe and healthy, but we just could not sit around and wait any longer! With such beautiful weather, the flexibility of health emergency rules, and vicinity to the beloved destination of Langhe and Roero, this past weekend we went to visit some of our local friends and run a test-tour for you!

First and foremost: people are as welcoming as we remembered, even more actually: whoever works in the wine, food and travel industry is really looking forward to receiving customers and get back to the social life that is such an important part of what they do every day!

We socialized, ate, and drank, went for walks, relaxed, took naps, and looked at the beautiful scenery. Breathtaking views over the Barolo hills for breakfast, sunset over a wonderful dinner, terraces in Verduno and La Morra that have the most amazing views of the prized vineyards, and a quick pick at the Cappella del Barolo – nothing was missing! We tested it all for you and we are 101% sure now you will have the most wonderful time when you’ll join Via Vitae Travels in 2021 for our Passion for Piemonte Tour!

Here are some pictures of our mini-vacation (by Vanda Z. C. – all rights reserved). Thanks mom for the pics! See it with your own eyes what awaits for you next year. Enjoy!!
