Italy Adventure and Travel with Rustic Pathways

My daughter wanted to travel the world, and I can’t thank Rustic Pathways enough for helping us make this possible! From the very first interactions, to the end, Rustic and their team were amazing to work with, while always communicating and keeping us informed every step of the way! My daughter stayed in a castle during her trip to Italy, made homemade pasta, went to lake Garda and volunteered by assisting with town cleanup!

Rustic Pathways provides a unique opportunity to perform service and develop special bonds with community members across the world while still enjoying the incredible things that a different country has to offer.

Rustic Pathways is an oppurtunity to travel in a way like none another. For most programs, such as the one I went one, there is a harmony achieved between service, exploration, learning, and fun. This was definitely obtained during my trip, and I would imagine this to be true for other as well.

This has been my favorite program out of the 4 that I've done with RP. Every moment that I spent in Italy was rather unforgettable. I had so much fun and I’ve met people that I consider lifelong friends now. Highly recommend it.

I had so much fun exploring and being in Italy. I met so many amazing people and loved my PLs. Exploring Italy was better than I had imagined and I loved trying new foods, exploring the cities, and shopping with my friends.

I was worried going into the program since it was definitely outside of my usual comfort zone but it ended up being one of the best experiences ever. I learned new things, ate a life times worth of gelato (you can never have enough gelato), got to try so many new things, and go so many new places. Also there were 3 cute cats and a dog at the castle where we stayed. Lastly one of the best parts had to be the amazing project leaders who were so much fun and so nice. I would highly recommend taking this trip.
