This new hotel being launched by Francis Ford Coppola in the lesser-traveled region of southern Italy comes across romantic, eclectic (mix of modern design, craftsmanship and non-Italian elements), and intimate – all attributes I love in a hotel: Palazzo Margherita (not yet opened, but worth bookmarking) These articles provide you with a nice sense of what [...]

The final leg of my 6-day Austrian Destination Summit was dedicated to a seldom visited region in Austria – Burgenland. This area, located in the eastern-most part of Austria, is coveted for its culinary, wine, musical and outdoor activities.

I recently returned from the 2010 Austrian Summit – the first annual (hopefully) event hosted by the Austrian Tourist Board. I’ve always been a fan of Austria, so whether or not I would attend this 6-day industry event was a no-brainer. There were about 45 Virtuoso/Signature/Platinum AMEX travel advisors from the U.S., Australia and Canada. Our objective [...]
