Overview
Our customized trips in Italy and the Mediterranean are designed with your interests, length of time and budget in mind. Working in every region throughout Italy and every country in the Mediterranean including Malta, Greece, Croatia, Spain and France we offer unparalleled assistance and prices. Organizing every type of accommodation, trains, ferries, and everything under the sun we can not only save you money and time, but also provide you with an incredible experience.
Our team is here to share our intimate knowledge and expertise developed through years of experience working and organizing travel experiences for our clients all over Italy and the Mediterranean. We LOVE Italy, but we also love the neighboring countries nearby us as well and we are in the process right now of creating a number of other tours in France, Greece, Spain, Croatia and Maltta.
Italy is a country synonymous with pleasure, however getting the most out of your experience takes planning because not all things run like clock-work in Italy. Some of the best hotels that offer the best value in the best locations, fill up quickly. In many instances, without doing a tour or having reservations you can expect long lines in many places and because of the lack of efficiency in some instances can lead to fatigue and annoyance, which is something nobody on holiday ever wants to experience.
We've got you covered and we can actually save you a lot of money too.
How it works is that you provide us with your wish list for what you want to see in Italy. We provide you with the details and careful planning required to make your holiday here in Italy a success.
We are able to provide our valued clients the very best prices because we get far lower rates than direct consumers can achieve on their own, mostly because of the volume of business we do and our special contracts. These savings we can pass onto you. For example, a hotel in Florence costs 300 EURO. They often give it to us for 150.00 EURO. We sell it to you for 200 EURO, allowing you to save money while we still make money.
Off of every service in Italy we book, we are able to pass savings onto you, we ourselves make money and we provide you with an exceptional holiday experience so ultimately we have a great business model and one that has caused so many clients to return to us time and time again for all of their needs.

Traveler Reviews
Ron and Deb CrosbyDear Guiseppe and Jesse,
We just returned from our most wonderful vacation to Italy and wanted to first thank you for putting together such a wonderful trip, and second to provide some feedback for the future.
Hotels
1. Hotel Sovestro in San Gimignano was wonderful. The staff were very friendly and helpful and made the first portion of our journey very stress free. They made us feel like we were part of their family. I would recommend it to anyone and would specifically ask for it if we were to make a return visit.
2. Hotel La Baia in Monterosso was nice and it's location was very good especially for us older folks humping luggage from/to the train station.
3. Hotel Lucchesi in Florence- what can I say expect FANTASTIC. The rooftop view at sunset is well worth it. Again very friendly and helpful staff. Would recommend it to everyone.
Wine Tour
Money well spent. We had a great time overall. The driver Mario was OUTSTANDING. He had lots of local knowledge as well as about winemaking. USE HIM AGAIN!!!
The various wineries we visited on tour:
Altesino- fantastic and they were not cheap on their pouring. Great experience.
Azienda Agricola Patrizia Cencion Sloaria- Again a great tour by one of the owner's daughters. We felt like we were the only thing on their mind although there were other customers there. A great way to complete the day.
Again we had a fantastic time and are very appreciative of everything you booked for us. We wish you continued success and if our travels should bring us back to Italy, we know who to call.
Leon and MicheleThe trip was great we appreciate all the hard work you and your team invested to make our experience a once in a lifetime trip. We appreciate all the attention to the details in particular Giuseppe spending the time and the focus with us on the road and as we were exploring your great country.
Bob & SandyJesse & Giuseppe,
Sandy and I have been looking through my slides of our trip to Southern Italy. We had such a good time with you and Giuseppe that we wanted to let you know again. You were the best guides ever.
Jo Ann WestJesse,
There are no words to describe the fabulous time we had in Italy. Everything went as you promised. Absolutely no problems! The venues were fabulous. The guides were punctual and helpful. It couldn't have worked out better. You and your staff deserve high praise for the quality and efficiency of your work. BTW, Guiseppe was an absolute delight. We enjoyed his informative and effervescent personality he was a hit with our group. The serenading was an added bonus! Our stay in Calabria went well too. Thank you for all your work and coordination for making this dream come true for us! If any of us travel there again, you will surely be hearing from us. I will not hesitate to recommend you to others as well. Ciao for now,

Frequently Asked Questions
Is this a private tour, or will we join a group?
Private. You travel with your own guide and driver, and the only people on the itinerary are the ones you bring with you. Nothing is shared with strangers, and the pace of each day is yours to set.
Can the itinerary be changed to suit us?
Yes. What you see here is a starting point, not a fixed departure. Tell us how long you have, what you love and what you would rather skip, and we will reshape it around you. A slower morning, an extra night somewhere you fell for, a different region entirely.
How do we start planning?
Send us a note using the form on this page, or call us on 1-866-779-2565. A travel specialist replies within one business day, usually with a few questions of their own. There is no cost and no obligation in asking.
When should we book?
The earlier the better, particularly for travel between May and September, when the guides worth having are taken first. That said, we have put together beautiful trips at short notice, so ask and we will tell you honestly what is still possible for your dates.
