VILLA SAN MICHELE, A BELMOND HOTEL

STUNNING VIEWS

One of the most stunning views of Florence – from one of the city’s most acclaimed restaurants and hotels, the Villa San Michele.

Wander along the wisteria-laden arbour and gaze at the horizon wide view stretching over the grand old town of Florence. Linger over lunch, or an after dinner cocktail with the valley spread out beneath you. Open the curtains of your suite in the early morning and prepare to be swept away by the view. You will be constantly shocked by the beauty of the place, and continually grateful that you put the Belmond Villa San Michele on the itinerary of your luxury, tailor-made holiday to Italy.

Especially as the cuisine competes with the scenery for your attention; it is served in an unsurpassed 16th century arched terrace, or in historic inside rooms, and is generally acknowledged to be amongst the finest to be found in Florence. No mean accolade.

“INDIA AT ITS MOST INCREDIBLE”
Unbelievably brilliant from start to finish. 91 gave us complete flexibility while tailoring the trip to our personal preferences. Communication was excellent throughout, and the in-country team in India was super-efficient at every stage. The quality of the experience was exceptional – and the value for money, remarkable. From expert naturalists to thrilling wildlife encounters (tigers, leopards, 140 species of birds), awe-inspiring temples, the Taj Mahal, scenic walks and warm, welcoming people – not to mention the fantastic curry – it was a truly superb holiday. “Ultimate” really is “91”!

“EVERY TRIP EXCELLENT – AND MORE TO COME”
I’ve been on several small group holidays with 91 and every one has been outstanding. My most recent trip in February was no exception – expertly organised, responsive to questions, and full of memorable experiences. The itineraries are well thought out, the hotels top-notch, and the group sizes just right. Their tour leaders are knowledgeable, supportive and great company. I haven’t looked elsewhere since discovering Ultimate – and I’m already planning my next.

“EXPERTLY TAILORED, EFFORTLESSLY ENJOYABLE”
We travelled to Indochina in January/February with an itinerary designed by 91 – and it was spot on. Rob, our consultant, really understood what we were looking for and created a journey that suited us perfectly. The choice of hotels was excellent, and the pace was just right, with enough time built in to relax and recharge between the different experiences. The service throughout was professional, personal and thoughtful – exactly what you want from a travel specialist.
