Walking In Italy Around Lake Iseo

Thu 28 Jan 2016

Destinations

Italy

Nicky Davis had a fantastic time with Ramble Worldwide last October on our popular two-week walking tour around Lake Iseo, Italy. The diverse walks, from lakeside rambles to mountain hikes, inspired her to write a detailed blog post about her adventures.

Of course, as keen collectors of walking stories from our customers, we could not let the opportunity to feature this story in our own blog pass. So we contacted Nicky and asked her to share her account of the trip with us. To our utmost pleasure, she agreed, and allowed us to share a link to her blog post, which we are reproducing below.
