Italy Extravagant Escapes

Visiting Italy is a feast for your senses … from the scent of lemons in Capri, to the delicious flavors of the many pastas and sauces which is known for, to viewing the crumbling ruins of the Roman Empire. Did you know that Italy has the most UNES...

Il Chiostro was established by Linda Mironti and Michael Mele, both Italian Americans with backgrounds in the arts. At Il Chiostro their goal is to bring Italy to people. They are all about “Slow Travel” and full immersion travel experiences. You will stay in one place long enough to become familiar with the people and customs. Get involved in the culture, meet the locals and appreciate the traditional food and wine of the area.


What you can expect:



  • Authentic places for accommodations

  • Nurture personal connections in each location to open doors to our participants

  • Emphasize the food and wine of each region

  • Share the passion and knowledge of our varied and talented staff


I have worked closely with Il Chiostro to plan picture-perfect Italian dream vacations. Let's get started on yours!
