Even the loudest of personalities have a quiet, intriguing side. A side that only reveals itself to the discerning few who look for it. We all know that Italy adds a pinch of flair to everything it does. But sometimes, it also likes to take a backseat to flamboyance and just enjoy a ride through rolling hills of understated charm. And it does so in regions like Marche, where its beauty and authentic culture resonate through storied medieval villages and along scenic mountain hikes. However, make no mistake, for as this journey will show, a destination doesn’t need to be loud to make you fall in love with it.

Then, reach a crescendo of luxury on the star-studded shores of Porto Cervo, as you gather the gems of its glamorous coast. Regardless of how well you know Italy, Sardinia guarantees to make it feel brand new.
