Tuscany Sunset
Tuscany Sunset
My favorite country to travel to in Europe is Italy, which I fell in love with while I lived there as a teenager. The gracious Italian people are a main reason I continue to return to Italy, but of course my love of Italian food and the wonderful wine keep me going back as often as I can. Even though I find fascination with each region of Italy, Tuscany holds a special place in my heart. The picturesque hill towns of Tuscany retain the old world charm of years gone by and life moves at a slower relaxed pace in these towns. You may have heard the Italian phrase ‘la dolce vita’ which means the sweet life, and when I travel to Italy I enjoy this style of living each day of my vacation. Sitting and watching the sunset on the hills with a glass of local wine after a wonderful day of touring Tuscan villages is truly a perfect end to a day in the ‘sweet life.’

“Italy is a dream that keeps returning for the rest of your life.” Poet Anna Akhmatova

My Travel Stories

Amalfi Coast Local Living Adventure

My trip started with a few days on the island of Ishcia which is a little over an hour ferry ride from Naples and was rated as the top island in Europe by Travel and...Read more.

Exceeded our expectations!
This was our first time working with Maureen to book a vacation. After selecting a destination, she presented options for multiple resorts at different price points to choose from. Once we decided, she was able to book the trip with only a $40 deposit and allowed us to pay down our balance at our own desired increments. She also coordinated private transfers to and from the airport. The entire vacation could not have gone more smoothly, but had something gone awry, it was comforting knowing that we could contact Travel Leaders at any time for assistance. We got back less than three weeks ago and have already been in touch with her regarding our next vacation! We highly recommend her services and plan to continue working with her for all future vacations from here on out.

Super Ski Trip
Ms McNeill goes beyond normal expectations in booking trips. Our ski trip to Park City was outstanding, From the accommodations, to equipment rentals and suggestions on daily itineraries, the trip was memorable. Ms McNeill has a wealth of personal experience in many of the areas she books trips for so you know you can trust her suggestions. We use her services for all our trips, both in the USA and abroad (Europe and Central and South America)
