region <strong>and</strong> sits just south of the Austrian / Italian border.<br />

Your tour will begin with a drive past Innsbruck <strong>and</strong> over the<br />

Europabrucke through the stunning Brenner Pass to Caldaro im<br />

German Kalterer. Here you can visit a wine cellar <strong>and</strong> learn about<br />

the grapes <strong>and</strong> wine produced in this region. You will then come<br />

to Brixen, famous for its unparalleled blend of Mediterranean<br />

<strong>and</strong> Alpine culture. Brixen is a quaint holiday town filled with<br />

history in its facades, art <strong>and</strong> winding archways throughout the<br />

streets. Take some time to stroll through the many shops <strong>and</strong><br />

boutiques before making a gr<strong>and</strong> stop at an Italian Christmas<br />

Market. You will be pleasantly surprised to see such a unique<br />

blend of Italian <strong>and</strong> Austrian goods offered in the same market.<br />
