What is the funniest thing that happened to you on an Untour?
We came back to our Tuscany apartment (Poggio alla Rose) one night to encounter a large number of hulking beasts looming in the darkness which proved to be a large herd of cows that had escaped from a nearby field. We had to gingerly proceed up the driveway, trying to avoid these creatures who did not at all want to move from their places where they were munching on the shrubbery and grass. We had to carefully wend our way through the pack to get to the door. All night long there were crunching and banging sounds outside the windows. The next morning the yard and garden was in a shambles and the lawn furniture was toppled over. The herder showed up to move the cows back to their field. Now that was "living with the locals" as Untours stives to do! (The wonderful host gave us a delicius Panforte cake the next day as a reward for our tribulations).
Which Untours have you already done?
Swiss Heartland, Prague/Vienna, Tuscany South, Umbria
What advice would you give others considering an Untour?
Do it
What is your favorite Untour? (so far)
Tie between Tuscany South and Umbria. But loved Switzerland

Hi Ron,
Great story about the cows! Welcome to the Untours Cafe! I hope you'll enjoy hanging out here as much as I do. Sit back, relax, and take a few moments to look at some of the amazing photos and videos people are uploading. Or check out some of the really interesting discussions in both the forum and our destination pages.

If you are looking for some content in particular the Search box in the upper right, and the “Help” tab are good ways to get started. We love to be of help so don’t hesitate to ask us (either via email or on the forum) if you have trouble with anything. There are plenty of really friendly people who will be glad to lend a hand! We're still
trying to figure out how to serve you some coffee or tea through the computer screen, but in the meantime, have fun!

Cheers,
Kim

Ron: Thanks so much for the good information you provided in the Umbria Destination group discussion. It just reinforces the interest I already had in the area. And I always like to go the low-down on good, inexpensive places to eat!
