“Blostmian Travel gave us the research and guidance we needed to plan our Italy trip with confidence—and the result far exceeded anything we could have imagined on our own. Blostmian Travel brings a thoughtful, personal touch that was evident in every recommendation Kara made for our time in Rome, Tuscany, and Florence. Standout moments included navigating Rome without the overwhelm, a cooking class with private transport in Tuscany, and Velona’s Jungle in Florence—a gem of an accommodation with stylish, thoughtfully designed interiors that were a joy to come back to each day, and the incredible breakfast delivered directly to our room every morning felt like a luxurious, personal indulgence. Kara takes the time to understand what you actually want out of a trip, and it shows. This wasn’t just a vacation—it was an experience we’ll cherish forever.”
