  • Travels with Sandi Hidden Treasures of Le Marche
    Travels with Sandi Hidden Treasures of Le Marche A Regional Discovery Tour September 24th - October 2nd 2021 Marche is one of the twenty regions of Italy. It is situated roughly half way down the east coast of the country, bound to the west by the Apennine Mountains and to the east by the Adriatic Sea. It is also an undiscovered jewel. Its neighbors to the north and west (Emilia-Romagna, Tuscany and Umbria) enjoy a booming tourist industry, while Marche sits in rural tranquility, happily devoid of the convoys of tourist coaches clogging up the countryside. Marche has managed to retain its agricultural and rural nature through to this new millennium – no mean feat in this modern age. And therein lies the beauty and charm of the region. It has not always been so. In Renaissance times, the city of Urbino rivalled Florence in its artistic and cultural reputation (Raphael came from Urbino). Pesaro was the birthplace of Rossini and the Holy Roman Emperor, Frederick II, was born in Jesi. This itinerary was a result of a project created by Fiona Bennett and her senior students and funded by the European Union. With the idea of promoting tourism to the region, five itineraries were created each researched by the students and in consultation with Discover Europe who had agreed to help and advise. Out of the 5 excellent itineraries proposed this The Marche one was selected. Making our base in one hotel for the entire trip (see details on the fabulous Castello di Monterado on page 3 of this brochure), Marche is the perfect destination for those who want to expe- rience the real Italy, away from the tourist throngs.
