Like many travelers to Italy, you can also go on-line and book a holiday without our help and you may find hundreds, if not thousands of 'cookie cutter' Italy experiences on the internet for a package rate, experiences in various locations as per the accommodation, but when it comes to a person coming to Italy or the Mediterranean, you are not going to stop in just one location!
Unlike many local experiences you may book, the difference comes down to the knowledge of the country.
What are you doing from place to place, and this is where we step in:
You want to experience what you want to experience in Italy and have ease and convenience from one place to the next.
Working with you, we identify exactly what it is you wish to do and see, and custom-craft a package based on the following criteria:
- Your dates for travel
- The airports you have found the best flights ( in and out of - note, we can also help with this! )
- The bucket-list destinations in Italy you wish to see, in addition to perhaps other countries, while in the Mediterranean or Europe, you may wish to discover.
- Some key accommodations you may have found you want to stay in (others we often recommend), given our experience with the area
- The transportation components you require based on your wish list, whether train, planes, ferries, cruises, or car
- The best accommodations we can provide for your budget and preferred travel style, which we recommend you contact us about prior to booking any tour to Italy, given our knowledge of every single accommodation
- Private or individual tours, cooking or wine experiences based on your interests
- Your Fitness level or any mobility issues you may have - i.e., shopping in Tuscany, Hiking in the Cinque Terre, Amalfi Coast, or simply enjoying an incredible boat experience which can take you to the best of the best
- Culinary / Dietary needs
- Comfort and Safety Requirements
- Solo / vs. Group Arrangement Requirements (Hence, Restaurant Reservations etc)
- Time & Ticket Reservation Requirements
- Personal things you may wish to accomplish during your trip
- Religious experiences you may wish to accomplish during your trip, i.e, the Papal Audience at the Vatican
- Emotional / Inspirational / Romantic objectives you may have on your trip
Given the time it takes us to understand your needs, your partner's needs, your friend's needs or your group's needs and desires here in Italy once you are here, we aim to make your journey seamless and all about you, as with our other vacation experiences we do not itemize prizes and we provide our full package prices which include our time, service, hotel, meal and otherwise not mentioned costs.
We do not itemize pricing for tickets, tours, transportation, or otherwise.
In turn, we save you time, money, stress and hassle which cannot be dealt with onsite in Italy by us.
Italy is at the very center of the Mediterranean and has so very much to offer visitors in terms of historical art cities, great beaches, coastal regions, and ski resorts. Yet, Italy as a country is unique, most importantly because of its food, wines, and totally different geography. For this reason, not only are the historical sites in Italy a major draw for individual travelers time and time again, but the world is coming to Italy, and incredible experiences in Italy are happening 24/7.
If you are a business owner, independent contractor, or whatever your business, we are here to help you design the most perfect experience.
OUR PROMISES TO YOU:
We like to make sure you have a great knowledge of Italy and other destinations before you come here, and that is why on our Destinations in Italy menu, we have provided so very many locations for you to look at. Italy might seem like an easy country to sell, but most of the agents that sell it only know the 3 big cities: Rome, Florence, and Venice, and even then, they will only be able to sell the most basic tours, the ones they find online. We make sure that you know your options here, the distances, and things that you should NOT miss.
Our customized itineraries are all different and built specifically for your needs. . Even our scheduled departures are not similar to other tours you have seen around. Your clients will quickly realize this and be IMPRESSED BY YOUR ABILITY TO CREATE AN AUTHENTIC ITALIAN EXPERIENCE!
We guarantee replies within 48 hours. We don’t take weeks to get back to you, and we are just a phone call away. And, as mentioned above, when we can get precise details about your client’s exact needs and preferences, we can EXPEDITE THE PLANNING PROCESS SO THAT THE FIRST ITINERARY THAT THE CLIENT RECEIVES IS THE PERFECT ONE. Plus, you don’t have to worry about the time difference. We are available during normal business hours for both the American and Italian time zones. Because we have offices in Italy and the US, you have access to us 24 hours a day in case of an emergency. We are always available so that you can keep your beauty sleep while we take care of your clients.
We stay in touch with you from the time you contact us to the time your clients say “goodbye” to Italy. In other words, we don’t forget about you and your clients after we collect the first payment. If you know what I mean, then you will realize how important it is to KNOW that WE WILL BE THERE FOR YOU AND YOUR CLIENTS FROM THE BEGINNING THROUGH THE END. THAT IS A PROMISE!
