If it is up to me, I say YES.
I will do everything I can to create a good base, original and attractive and equipped with all comforts, in which you will discover and experience a real Italian holiday together with other people going solo.

Do you recognize this?
I know from experience. It can be quite scary to go on vacation alone.
Especially when it is your very first time.
Perhaps you are unsure whether a solo trip is cut out for you?
Are you afraid that you will not feel comfortable in the group?
Or that you are only going to meet old and unhappy people?
That there is no time for yourself?

Frank Oldenboom:
“Volg de Rode Schoentjes” takes you to places you may know from brochures. Etruscans, wine, art, hiking.
But it is surprising because it is slightly different from what you expect. Different guide, different wine. Different nature, different meeting than you had expected. Surprisingly fun, cozy! To never forget.

I did a great wine walking holiday with Mariët. It was so nice. Visited special wineries, had special lunches (both at the wineries and the picnic on the way). For me it was a vacation for the books that I will not forget. And the new verb: to wine walk.

I had a wonderful walking holiday. We walked a route from Orvieto to Rome along and through beautiful villages and towns. It was well worth it and would do it again.
Mariet, thank you for your great, funny, and good guidance. You showed me a beautiful part of Italy.

Walked with Mariet for five days through the area of the Etruscans. A long cherished wish. She knows the area like the back of her hand and knows all the special places. Walked through the sunken roads, saw caves with burial chambers still present, fields full of poppies and visited authentic villages. We have enjoyed this week. Exercise and relaxation side by side with our great guide Mariet. Great, thanks Mariet!
