Bye Tinne,
We are now back in the Netherlands but I want to thank you for the donkey ride. We had a wonderful time with the 2 families. What a sweet little donkeys. The walks were fortunately not always on the beaten track which made it very nice. It is also wonderful to arrive in the afternoon in a warm bath because of the friendly reception at the overnight addresses.
So many thanks for the organization.
Ha Tinne!!! Thank you so much again for our great days and for helping us with the rainy day. We enjoyed ourselves although we were pretty exhausted after the hiking days. The lodging made up for a lot. The hospitality and food gave us enough energy to saddle up Carolina and Selvaggia again the next day. What sweet, tough and touching animals they are. We enjoyed ourselves.
Thank you. Love, Diederik
Bye Tinne,
We wanted to say that we found the trek very fun, beautiful, tasty (the food), well organized and pleasing.... and that we miss Fiamma already! also big thanks for the supply of sun cream ?
yours sincerely
sebastian, felipa, evelyn and raf
Okay, we've been home for a while (our 6-day hike was in early June) but what a survival trip (it had mostly rained beforehand) on impossible mud trails, loose rocks, rain and thunderstorms, several river crossings, forests with no path, even more bushes and thorny bushes, snakes (4) and especially those up and downs (it really was much tougher than we thought beforehand)! But what an adventure and fantastic, different accommodations (from simple at the farmer's) and pizza-eating at the neighbors to a super deluxe winery with its own wines (delicious!) and luxury food. We still talk about it daily and will probably never again want a boring europe-vacation-with-terrace-and-beach!
Thanks Tinne, for the good explanations and super guidance!
Dear Tinne,
It was a wonderful trip and very friendly accommodations! Carolina is a very nice donkey. She walks very good and is just a bit shy sometimes. With some friendly assistance she calms down very quickly. We loved her a lot!
Many regards,
Rosalinda and Manfred
Thanks a lot
Just returned from a five-day hiking trip with family and friends in the beautiful unspoiled nature of Tuscany. By plane to Pisa, further by bus to Pomarance and then walking with the help of 4 donkeys to different agriturismo. The nature, the accommodation, the delicious food, the trip and the great organization: Unforgettable! Highly recommended!
Good morning, we are back in Germany and we miss Fiamma!
I hope everything was fine with her and her sore tummy is healing again!
Yes, our first day of hiking was quite an adventure and but on the second day we were pretty fast and were back at the meadow with a view already around 1pm! Fiamma was very sweet---- and she enjoyed a LOT of fresh grass and yellow flowers 🙂 We also enjoyed our agriturismos a lot . They were all very welcoming and we had very good food.
Best wishes from Germany,
Luca and Anette
Hi Tinne,
Our little ones and ourselves really enjoyed our hike with Camelia through the beautiful Tuscan countryside. Although it was already from June our boys are still talking about it! They miss Camelia 🙂
Everything was well organized and the agriturismos were super! Especially the hospitable reception at fattoria di Libbiano has stayed with us. They were waiting for us with ice cream for the kids and cold drinks for us which was very welcome after a hot day!
Highly recommended if you are looking for an alternative, active vacation! Thank you so much for the experience!
Greetings Annelies, Stijn, Wout and Noah
Hello Tine, it is now a little over a month ago that we went on a three-day hike with donkey Otto, which we are still reminiscing about when we tell about our vacation! Also the agriturismo where we slept were all very pleasant. It was always a pleasure to enjoy the pool after a day of hiking in the oh so beautiful Tuscany! we had very hot days but all the more reason to go to bed on time in the evening and pamper and prepare Otto in the early morning! Thanks for the nice days! Highly recommended for anyone who wants to discover Tuscany in a fun sometimes spirited way!
What an incredibly fun vacation this was. Our little man of 2.5 absolutely loved diaspora. Our sweet, stubborn and sometimes stubborn companion. Locations were top notch. Distances were doable (easy version ivm little son). Diaspora generally cooperated well. Only the steep forest path on day 2 was not her favorite. Fantastic how even such a small man deals with Diaspora: feeding, brushing, checking on her and saying goodnight. Highly recommended!
