(I-TravelNewswire.Com, March 20, 2014 ) SALEM, ORE. – Tofino Expeditions, a veteran commercial sea kayaking company since 1988, is offering a totally new way to explore Italy. Boasting a bounty of Mediterranean coastline and scenic waterways, Italy is a prime location for adventure, culture and culinary experiences to intersect.
With Tofino Expeditions, travelers experience a fresh new perspective on some of the world’s most iconic sights and get to explore hidden places that the vast majority of visitors never get to see. Italian coastal residents live the life of the ““Marineria” (the life of the sea) and are especially welcoming to people who arrive to their charming villages by water.
Tofino Expeditions believes the best way to truly discover a culture is through the kitchen door. In Italy, the original home of slow food and locavore cuisine, travel experts at Tofino have found a wealth of delicious food creations based on the freshest ingredients. On each itinerary travelers experience a “best of” list of authentic dining experiences with a focus on regional specialties. A sampling might include local wine in Cinque Terra, freshly baked rosemary focaccia on the Riviera or fresh seafood dishes in the Laguna.
Cinque Terre and Sardinia
This 11-day tour highlights two exceptional paddling destinations linked by a sea voyage. Cinque Terra and Sardinia are strikingly different in landform, culture, and even language, but are joined by a warm clear blue sea that offers some of the most spectacular kayaking in the world. Departure dates on May 26, June 10, Sept. 2, and Sept. 15. Price is $4,695 per person.
Venice and the Venice Laguna

Sept 14, and Sept 28. Price $4,495 per person.
