The Gilbert Chamber of Commerce is working to organize the group travel excursion Discover Tuscany, a 10-day packaged tour of Italy in March 2010, including site tours of Rome, Assisi, Florence, Siena, and more.

An informational meeting will be held on Thursday, September 17th from Noon to 1p.m. at the Gilbert Chamber of Commerce, 119 N. Gilbert Rd., Ste. 101, in Gilbert. Travel is open to the community and no commitment to travel is required to attend the informational meeting.

“My family traveled with the Chamber last year on their organized trip to China and we were thrilled with the experience,” said Alonzo Russell, of A.L. Russell and Associates. “I am looking forward to joining the group again in March.”

The package, coordinated by Collette Vacations, is available at a rate of $2,999 per person and includes round-trip airfare from Phoenix, hotel accommodations, 13 meals, site tours and more. Travel deposits received by September 18th will receive a discount of $100 per person.

“This is a great opportunity for our Chamber to provide a wonderful experience for our members and community,” said Kathy Langdon, President/CEO of the Gilbert Chamber of Commerce. “I took a similar trip at my own expense a few years ago and the cost far exceeded the rate we are able to offer with this tour.”
