Borgo Bucine Guest Book
We are so happy to help our clients have a great
time in Italy. We've chosen to include more rather
than less of their letters to us because they have
such fun and pass along great ideas that future
clients may appreciate. Also we hope that people
considering working with Excellent Europe can read
these letters and better imagine their enjoyable
travels with our assistance. Pat, Excellent Europe
We welcome your comments and invite you to peruse

You have been so wonderful to work with. The villa
and all the many details were all perfect! In
retrospect, it is such a joy to think back about what
a great time we had throughout the entire trip. I
really cannot thank you enough." Cynthia B.,

"We are back and had a great trip to Italia.
It was extremely hot and crowded, but nothing we
didn't expect. We all loved Borgo Bucine. Its an
idyllic setting, nice accomodations, and the people
working there were great. They were friendly and
helpful - we always had positive interactions. Having
the restaurant is a real plus. We had breakfast there
every day, some dinners, and even did a cooking
lesson. The one thing that was very onerous was having
to pay in cash for everthing [additional]. Other than
that, everything was great. thanks for your help in
lining it up." Jan, June 2007
We just wanted you to know that we had a totally
fabulous time at Borgo Bucine
last week. We also were fortunate to have lovely
weather, and thoroughly enjoyed our daytrips to Pisa,
Siena, Montepulciano, and Arrezzo. We also visited one
of the local wineries, Poggio Molina (website is
www.poggiomolina.it) whom the owners recommended. This
was one of the highlights of our trip....the vineyards
are gorgeous and the wine cellar and tasting room was
beautiful. It's run by a local family, and they even
sent us back with a gift of wine for the Lupinaris for
recommending them (we bought two cases of red and one
of white).
...everything else was perfect...we loved the
layout of the villa (Fienile) and the furniture is
beautiful. Thanks again for all of your help and
advice and I would love to return to Italy again soon.
Thank you, Linda S
We returned from Italy late
Saturday night. I must tell you -- Borgo
Bucine was spectacular. Your directions were
terrific and the family was lovely. I got especially
friendly with Antonella. My daughter fell in love with
their dogs.
So, thanks for hand picking a lovely villa for us. We
had a wonderful and relaxing trip. Tuscany is a very
special place. The Italian people--even more special.
It can get unbearably hot in the summer. We may
have hit an unusually hot spell, but it did put a
damper on our enjoyment. We had several days of 95-100
degree weather. Brutal. If people have a choice, they
should choose May or October.
There were soooooo many tourists, it was crazy.
When I travel, I like to spend time with the people
who live in the area. Not people like me! Anyway,
Antonella suggested three "tourist free"
places for us that I loved.
Thanks for great tips. Oh, we ate in a place that
you recommended. I don't have the name right now but
it was about a block away from the Piazza della
Signoria. Wonderful food. NO TOURISTS!! Grazie, Andrea
