Castello
Di Vicarello Welcomes Guests to
Thanksgiving in Italy
The Castello di
Vicarello, the 900-year-old castle
that has been transformed into
a seven-suite luxury retreat with
organic vineyards, restaurant
and olive orchards, has introduced
a new package to welcome guests
to Thanksgiving in Tuscany.
For the week of
November 21-28, 2010 (Sunday to
Sunday), guests can book the entire
property in the Maremma region
of southern Tuscany for their
exclusive family holiday retreat
for Euro 26,000 (approximately
US$36,355), a savings of more
than $8,000 off the regular rate.
In addition to
exclusive use of the Castello
di Vicarello, the whole family
can indulge in the authentic Tuscan
farm-to-table cuisine produced
by owner Aurora Baccheschi Berti
and her team of chefs, who prepare
feasts of rustic seasonal cuisine
in the Castello's open kitchen,
all sourced from their own organic
gardens. In preparation for their
Thanksgiving meal, guests can
even participate in a hunting
excursion to the Castello's exclusive
nearby Valle di Buriano estate,
where they can hunt wild boar,
quail and partridge. And to pair
with their rich Thanksgiving cornucopia,
guests can enjoy the estate's
award-winning red wines, the Castello
di Vicarello and the Terre di
Vico. And when the Thanksgiving
feasts are over, guests canrelax,
stretch and soak at the Castello
di Vicarello's Ayurvedic spa with
a massage, yoga lesson or visit
to the hot tub, sauna and Turkish
bath.

GoArt!
Offers Green Design Tours Through Berlin
Sustainability
does not only consist of ecological but also
of cultural, creative and social aspects.
Our innovative “Green Design“-
tours, created with the usual quality, are
aimed at journalists, travel agencies, multiplications
from various backgrounds and visitors of Berlin
to introduce them to the experience of Berlin’s
creative, ecological, fair, i.e. sustainable
areas of life and lifestyle.
Our focus lies primarily on
areas and districts such as Mitte, Prenzlauer
Berg and Kreuzberg where we give an exciting
and attractive insight into “Green
Design“ made in Berlin. You will
get to know well-known design stores and newcomers
from Berlin’s fashion scene: interior
designers, architectural and urban gardening
projects, artists but of course also restaurants
whose main focus of their creative work is
sustainability. Our aim is to bring to your
attention the fresh, famously colorful, exclusive
and, of course, the conscious and responsible
Berlin.
The tours can be designed
based on these two modules:
- By foot: Always a new and
changing, but certainly an authentic and
immediate insight into the current districts
and popular areas without rejecting the
other famous highlights of Berlin.
- By bus: Here we can give
our guests a compact, individually designed
overview of various areas of Berlin including
less-travelled areas. With the availability
of several busses it is also possible to
accommodate larger groups.
As usual GoArt!’s tours
are conducted by well-informed and qualified
guides: we work with art historians, architects,
artists and designers.
Did we catch your attention?
We are looking forward to
having guests who are visiting Berlin for
the first time or those who want to see the
city in a new light: exclusive, creative,
sustainable and conscious.
