Join our WhatsApp Tuscany Group for our Group Communications while in Italy!

Once we depart for Italy, we will use WhatsApp as our "primary"  group communication tool to communicate with the Tour Group.  In the next day or two, you will receive a text from Theresa, (our VP of La Dolce Vita) with an invitation to join our exclusive Adventures To Tuscany WhatsApp Group. This WhatsApp group is just for the guests on your specific Tour date.  (if you already use WhatsApp, you'll receive the invitation from What'sApp).

WhatsApp ~ it's easy & it's free!
In Europe, everybody uses "WhatsApp"!  It basically gives you free Texting and free Voice calls to anyone else who is on the WhatsApp platform... So while you're traveling with friends, and need to contact them, or you want to call or text from Italy back to the US, if you're calling someone else on the WhatsApp platform, it's free...  It works great for having a Tour Group Text String while traveling abroad and that's why we always  create one for our Tour groups so that we can all easily connect and communicate with each other!

The important thing to understand about WhatsApp and similar platforms is that you still need an internet connection for it to be totally free... So if you're at The Villa, you'll have free unlimited wifi... But say you're in your car, and you use WhatsApp, you'll connect to the internet thru your cellular data plan...

If ya know, ya know... If you don't, just watch the short video below where you can learn all about it in just 3 minutes... Don't worry about all the advanced stuff this site will mention. 

All you need to do is:

  1. take a few minutes to watch the video
  2. go to the App Store & download the App on your phone (it's free)
  3. Get your friends & family to download the App
It's free & it takes just 2 minutes to download, and can save you a ton of $$$!

even if you're familiar with WhatsApp, this video 
has lots of great info you may not be aware of
