Hello - trust you are all well . Recently returned from the above trip . Wow 😉 , what a cracking holiday ! We had a terrific tour manager in Cristina and a great mixed group of travellers . The Hotel Rosa in Alassio provided a good base and was up to its 3 star rating . A few ' highlights ' . San Remo - well worth visiting . Nice is very chic and the medieval village of St Paul de Vence is best described as charming . A real treat for me was the excursion to Portofino & Santa Margherita - elegant & exclusive !  Ventimiglia and Dolceacqua have to be seen to be believed & Isolabona provided us with a magnificent lunch in unique surroundings . Genoa - a lovely city . Monaco and Monte Carlo is stylish and sophisticated - a real bonus was watching the ongoing preparations for the Monaco Grand Prix .

As you will have gathered , I thought that this was a great trip , also including visits to brilliant restaurants offering so much more than just food . I would totally recommend this holiday , especially if you want to live a bit of the ' high life ' at a very reasonable overall cost .Well done to Just You for keeping this one amongst your many choices . All the best , Chris ( aka Neil Y ) . :cool:

Hello Katy - we stayed at the Hotel Rosa in Alassio , Italy . It is rated 3 star and I would agree with that . The deal there is basically bed & breakfast but also included in the overall holiday price are 3 dinners in local restaurants and one light lunch in Isolabona ( it's actually a magnificent rural feast !! ) . The hotel is well located for the excursions and its easy to get around Alassio . All the best , Chris .

Oh dear! Chris, every positive review like yours just adds to the 'I want to go' list. I hope the Flavours of Tuscany holiday that I'm about to go on will be just as good. 

Thank you.
