A Luxurious Mother and Daughter Getaway in Indulgent Italy
The bond between a mother and daughter can go two ways when the teenage years arrive - growing incredibly strong or horribly bad. For a daughter's upcoming 16th birthday, instead of a sweet sixteen party, why not give your daughter a luxurious getaway to Europe, specifically in Italy?
The memories that are created from a party are short lived compared to the moments created from an intimate experience like a luxurious mother and daughter getaway in the lush cities and towns of Italy. Not only will you be making your bond stronger, you'll be teaching your daughter a sophistication and worldliness that can't be taught in the confines of a classroom or by reading a book.
For a truly spectacular and indulgent Italian vacation that both mother and daughter can enjoy, make a list of things to do and places to go that interest you both. From cultural visits, to pampering experiences, learning and indulging in Italian cuisine, and of course, shopping, Italy has all of these to offer, for a memorable bonding experience that you and your daughter will forever remember.
A first trip to Italy will never be complete without visiting the capital of Rome. Visiting the Colosseum can be the starting point of your Italian vacation. Though it can get rather crowded, it is the number one historical place to visit and an important cultural attraction. If it's a Wednesday morning, you can head to the Vatican and catch a glimpse of the Pope at St. Peter's Square and see the Sistine Chapel and St. Peter's Basilica. Throw a coin at Trevi Fountain, make a wish, then have a taste of exquisite gelato at San Crispino. Don your evening gowns and have a night of Opera for an authentic Italian evening.
Italy is best known for its indulgent and spectacularly delicious cuisine. Rather than simply consuming the best pasta and pizza the world has to offer, why not take a basic Italian cooking class at Florence's Villa San Michele? Formerly a monastery nestled on the hilltop with picturesque views of Florence, this hotel offers cooking classes to its guests. The hotel is renowned worldwide for it international chefs who teach hands-on lessons, meaning you prepare, cook, and taste your own culinary musings. Once you get home, impress your family and friends with your authentic Italian cooking skills.
After filling your heart's content with the heavenly tastes of Italy, you can head to the southern part of Tuscany for spa and beauty treatments that will recharge and rejuvenate your mind and body. Built around natural springs, the Terme di Saturnia Spa is the perfect place to get pampered. You and your daughter can enjoy facial treatments, natural skin exfoliation, and beauty services that will leave your skin refreshed and looking new.
Lastly, once you've seen the beauty, tasted the amazing food, and enjoyed the relaxing treatments, it's time to head to Milan to shop till you drop. One of the fashion capitals of the world, Milan boasts of designer boutiques, high street shops, and limitless offerings for all your shopping desires. Head to Lula Cioccolato for imaginative chocolate confections, sweets and cakes. If you love reading, a local favorite is Panton's English Bookshop that is the oldest English bookstore in Milan. Affordable shoes can be found in Mauro Leoni, whereas authentic vintage clothing can be bought at Cavalli e Nastri.
The shopping mecca of Italy, Milan is every woman's dream come true, creating the perfect ending to a truly enjoyable and luxurious getaway that will definitely strengthen the bond between mother and daughter.
An amazing European backdrop, the most indulgent culinary treats, the perfect spa treatments, and the best shopping in the world, Italy is the perfect luxurious mother and daughter getaway.
