Terri and Will

Very Personalized and Immersive Experience

Unique and memorable, surpassed my highest expectations, trip of a lifetime, frequently asked questions, what's included in your custom packages.

Our custom packages are designed to include the best hotels, transportation, guides and activities in each destination you visit. What’s included can be tailored to you, based on the specific wants, needs, and budget you have for your trip.

Does Savour Italy Tours arrange flights?

While we can advise you on the best flight route, we do not purchase flights on behalf of clients. Many of our clients like to use their travel points or their preferred travel agent. If you need assistance in booking your flight, let us know and we will put you in touch with one of our partner travel agencies to help you find the best deal.

How much free time will I get?

We design our custom packages as dense as you like. Our assessment interviews with you will define your travel style to us. We recommend at least half day at leisure so that you can explore on your own and have some time to relax and fully absorb la “bella vita Italiana”.

Will guides and drivers be with me at all times during tours and excursions?

Yes. Our drivers and guides will be with you for the days you have activities or transfers. Our drivers pick you up and return you to your hotel once the activity is over.

I have special meal requirements. Can you accommodate me?

Definitely! This is very common request. Just notify us of any dietary restrictions at the time of booking and we’ll make sure that any meals meet your needs during your journey.

I have been to most of the main tourist spots in Italy, what else is there to see?

With over 20 regions, there is certainly more to see! We pride ourselves in providing unique and authentic packages that venture off the beaten path. Please feel free to reach out to us.

What type of accommodation do you book?

Before we book a hotel for our travellers, our team visits it and inspects it from top to bottom. A hotel makes our short list only when it meets our standards for safety, comfort, value, location and that little bit of flavour that turns a stay into something unique.

Do you include meals?

We always include all breakfasts with our hotels. Our final itineraries include the list of our favourite restaurants at each destination for you to pick and choose!

Do I need a visa to travel to Italy?

Italy does not require U.S. or Canadian citizens to purchase an entry visa. Non-U.S. or non-Canadian citizens can check if a visa is required for entry by visiting: vistoperitalia.esteri.it/home/en . Please let us know if you have any questions.

Do I need a passport to go to Italy?

Yes. Please check your passport’s expiration date before you reserve your tour. It must be valid for 3 months beyond your return date. Source: vistoperitalia.esteri.it/home/en .

Private and Luxury Italy Tours

Any tour of Italy must combine art treasures, historic monuments, and gastronomic delights. Given the sheer number of UNESCO sites, unmissable paintings and sculptures, and the variety of remarkable regional food and wine, planning a luxury Italy tour can leave you bewildered. Unless, of course, you have a knowledgeable Enchanting Travels consultant helping you navigate the myriad choices this boot-shaped country offers.

Begin with Italy’s most recognizable landmarks. Stare in wonder at the grandeur of the Colosseum or Roman Forum, and then wander the vibrant, compact streets of Rome. Within this ancient and modern capital of Italy is the Vatican City, where St. Peter’s Basilica and the Sistine Chapel are only a small part of the gems you will behold. In Florence, some of the most exquisite Italian Renaissance art awaits you. Equally fascinating is a saunter through its Mercato Centrale Firenze (the central market) where you can taste different olive oils or an impressive selection of prosciutto. You’d do well to set aside a few days to explore the charming vineyards and agricultural farms of the countryside in Tuscany. The neighboring Emilia-Romagna region too is world-famous for the most tantalizing produce—Mortadella Bologna, cured Parma ham, and Parmesan cheese.

Wherever your Italy tours lead you, charming al fresco cafés, wine bars, and restaurants are perfect stopover points to rest in the company of a carafe of wine or dark espresso and biscotti. Note however, that feasting in Italy goes well beyond eating pasta and pizza. Savor fresh seafood cooked in unique local flavors, sample arancini, polenta, and osso buco too. Italy leaves no stone unturned to satisfy the sweet tooth, with its astounding array of dolci (desserts). Get your favorite tiramisu or gelato for sure, but also reach for mouthwatering sorbets, cannoli, and zabaglione. For the more enthusiastic there are also cooking classes and tasting menus, produce markets and truffle hunts, and wine and culinary tours that dive deep into the heart of gastronomic Italy.

Romantic Venice is the epitome of all that is grand and awe-inspiring in this culturally-rich country. Just as magical are many other, less famous, places. From Siena to Lucca, Italy is filled with well-preserved medieval cities with their characteristic central squares and grand duomos. In southern Italy visit the coastal city of Sorrento, surrounded by stunning mountains. From here, carry on to the Amalfi Coast where forest-covered cliffs and pretty villages and hamlets dot the landscape. Alternatively, head to the excavated ruins of Pompeii, the medieval castles and churches of Naples, or the Isle of Capri for a true taste of the laid-back Italian way of life.

The best time of the year to tour Italy is spring (March to June) or fall (September to November) when the weather is pleasant and crowds are few. However, some attractions such as the Cinque Terre, Sicily, Amalfi Coast and Liguria will most likely remain closed from the end of October to the beginning of April. Summer (June to September) is the high season in Italy for both local and international travelers. The weather can get really warm in these months.

Amalfi Coast  is a spectacular stretch of colorful fishing villages perched on the cliffs of southern Italy. Known for its glamorous vibe, it has great beaches for swimming, hiking trails, luxurious accommodations and Michelin-rated restaurants. Amalfi is easily accessible from the rest of the country.

Cinque Terre  on the Italian Riviera, is somewhat secluded with rustic villages and many hiking, biking, and walking trails across the mountainous landscape. Visitors can explore the five main villages of Cinque Terre, visit vineyards, or sail along the coastline. Cinque Terre offers a more authentic vibe and is ideal for shorter trips.

The choice between the two depends on your interests and the duration of your trip. For personalized travel advice, contact us at  +1 888 263 2574 .

What they say about us

Loving Italy is not a good enough reason for receiving this award but having helped Americans discover new aspects of Italy, with its significant cultural traditions and doing so with ‘contagious passion’ and inexhaustible curiosity, is a more than a valid motive for the Ross’s receiving the award. Their work deserves our constant gratitude. Carol and David Ross, in the last ten years, have created a company which specializes in high class itineraries with surprising originality.

Former American diplomats who served in Italy, the Rosses have lived there for 27 years now—long enough to become not only friends with local villa owners but also award-winning travel agents specializing in Italy. You might hear from them several times during your stay–they check in to answer questions and make sure you have everything you need. Headed through Milan? They often meet up with clients there, taking them to the opera or for a round of golf.

Imagine seeing italy as a local.

Together with your special partner or with your entire family.

Sicily and the Amalfi Coast

This 10-night trip takes you to where the sun always shines! With three nights in Sorrento, three in Syracuse, and three in Taormina, you will visit Pompeii, lunch on Mt. Vesuvius, travel along the Amalfi Coast, cruise to Capri, and take a cable car up Mt. Etna. As a grand finale, you will experience Taormina, Sicily's most gracious city, from its best vantage point: the sea.

Italy's Heart and Soul

Rome - Florence Here is the perfect tale of two cities: Italy's "art" and "soul." Rome, once the capital of the western world, remains the secular capital of Italy and the seat of the Catholic Church, and as such should be on the bucket list of anyone who wants to understand western civilization. When Florence began flexing her muscles in the fifteen century, she was actually giving birth to the Renaissance, which would sweep across Europe in a hundred years and turn it, and the world, upside down. You'll get all this plus a tour of the Chianti region,...

The Glory of Rome, the Gems of Amalfi

Rome - Sorrento

If you don't believe Italy runs the gamut of human endeavor, try this week-long adventure! It begins with the glory, pomp, and majesty of Rome, ancient, baroque, and modern; takes you through incredible Pompeii and Mt. Vesuvius; and concludes on the Amalfi Coast with the tiny urban gems of Positano, Amalfi, and Ravello and a romantic boat tour of Capri. This is your Italian vacation of a lifetime, with custom touches and English-speaking guides every step, because this is Your Own Italy.

The Complete Italian Experience

Beginning in the northeast, you’ll take in exotic, romantic Venice, then head west to chic and sophisticated Milan, world capital of fashion and design and home of Leonardo da Vinci’s The Last Supper. Up towards the Swiss border is lovely Lake Como, worth the trip even if you're not rich and/or famous. Heading south to the Mediterranean Coast you will tour the Cinque...

Roman Rhapsody

Everything is customized, with private car and...

The Three Cities of Art

Rome - Florence - Venice If everyone weren't speaking Italian, you'd be forgiven for thinking you were in three different countries when you visit Rome, Florence, and Venice. Rome is wide, broad, and majestic. Its baroque piazzas are the size of small ball fields and even in its historic center, which in some places dates back to the Middle Ages, the buildings are massive, as if to proclaim the might of an empire. Florence, on the other hand, was built with a lighter touch, a feminine grace, an early Renaissance sense of delicacy and good taste in...

The Soul of Sicily

Palermo - Trapani - Agrigento - Syracuse - Taormina

This tour of Sicily last almost two weeks and hits all the high spots. From Palermo, Sicily's largest city, to the fishing village of Cefalu’ … from the archeological treasures of Segesta to the beautiful city of Trapani … from salt pans to olive oil … and that’s just the first few days! There's also the Valley of Temples, a 150-year-old chocolate factory, the world’s largest Greek theater, Europe's most active volcano, and - not forgetting that this is, after all, an island - a boat tour of the coast....

The Eternal, the Spirit and the Art of Italy

Rome - Sorrento - Florence With English-speaking guides throughout your trip, you’ll start right in the middle, in Rome, where you’ll explore history, art, religion, and more, with private visits to The Vatican Museums and Saint Peter’s Basilica. Then you'll head south into "il Mezzogiorno," where you’ll visit Pompeii, lunch on Mt. Vesuvius, settle into Sorrento, explore the Amalfi Coast, and even sail to Capri on a private boat to swim in the perfectly blue Mediterranean. Finally, it's north to Florence, to its art treasures and culinary delights...

The Culture and Antiquity of Southern Italy

Rome - Vieste - Matera - Positano - Sorrento - Naples

The south of Italy, "il Mezzogiorno," has long been under-visited by American tourists. Thirteen days and twelve nights will provide a fascinating glimpse into a different side of Italy, with its own pristine grottoes and beaches, winding roads, stupendous views, scrumptious food and wine, and fascinating antiquities. You'll see the Amalfi Coast and swim from a boat off the shore of Capri, but you'll also visit Naples, Italy’s third largest city, often overlooked by tourists. You'll walk back in time 2,...

The Lakes and Villages of Northern Italy

Milan - Lake Como - Verona - Venice

A trip to Northern Italy is a trip to one of Italy’s most beautiful and romantic regions. Milan, Italy's second-largest city, is a world capital of art and design. Whether experimenting with better ways to lay paint on walls, as with The Last Supper (an experiment that, admittedly, was not entirely successful) or developing better ways to help people spend their money on fashion, as with the glass-vaulted Vittorio Emmanuele II shopping arcade, Milan takes the lead in innovation. From there you’ll move to the more...

A city of romance

Naples is a city that exudes romance and charm at every turn. From the winding streets of its historic center, filled with stunning Baroque architecture and lively street performers, to the breathtaking views of the Bay of Naples and Mount Vesuvius, this city is a true feast for the senses. Stroll hand in hand along the colorful streets, stopping to sample delicious local cuisine and sip espresso at a charming outdoor cafe. Or, venture out to the breathtaking Amalfi Coast, where you can lose yourselves in the beauty of the Mediterranean Sea and the picturesque, cliffside towns. No matter what you choose to do, Naples is the perfect destination for a romantic getaway filled with adventure, culture, and romance.

Past & present meet in the canals

Venice is a city unlike any other. Nestled among the canals of the Venetian Lagoon, it is a place where the past and present come together in perfect harmony. As you wander through the streets and over the charming bridges, you can't help but feel as though you have been transported back in time. The stunning architecture and art that adorn every corner are a testament to the city's rich history and cultural heritage. But it's not just the sights that make Venice so special. It's the way the city comes alive at night, with music filling the air and the soft glow of the streetlights reflecting off the water. It's the way the gondoliers navigate the narrow canals with ease, singing sweet melodies as they go. There is a sense of romance and magic in the air in Venice, a feeling that draws people in and captures their hearts. It's a place where dreams are made and memories are created, a true gem of Italy that will stay with you forever.

A land of culture & food

Tuscany is a romantic region in Italy known for its natural beauty, cultural heritage, and cuisine. It has rolling hills, vineyards, and ancient villages, and is surrounded by fields of wheat, sunflowers, and olive groves. The air is perfumed with lavender, rosemary, and thyme, and the sound of cicadas fills the air. At the heart of Tuscany is Florence, a city with Renaissance art and architecture, including the Uffizi Gallery and the Accademia Gallery with works by Michelangelo, Leonardo da Vinci, and Botticelli. A romantic dinner in a trattoria with Chianti and pasta alla carbonara is a perfect way to end a day of exploring this magical region.

Breathtaking history & beauty

Wander through the city, and you'll be transported back in time to a world of gladiators and emperors. Rome is filled with iconic landmarks, such as the Colosseum, the Pantheon, and the Trevi Fountain, each one more breathtaking than the next. As the sun sets over the city, the streets come alive with the sound of music and laughter. The restaurants and cafes are filled with the scent of freshly baked bread and the sizzle of grilling meats. A glass of wine and a plate of pasta, enjoyed al fresco at a candlelit table, is the perfect way to end a day of exploring this magical city. With its rich history, stunning architecture, and delicious cuisine, Rome is a city that truly captures the heart and soul. It's no wonder that it's considered one of the most romantic cities in the world, and it's the perfect place to celebrate love with your special someone.

Renaissance architecture & art

Florence is a city that exudes romance with its stunning Renaissance architecture and beautiful art. The city is filled with charming piazzas, cozy cafes, and picturesque bridges. The Arno River winds its way through the city, and a romantic walk along its banks is the perfect way to take in the beauty of this magical city. As the sun sets, the streets come alive with the sound of live music and the aroma of freshly baked bread. With its rich cultural heritage, stunning art, and delicious cuisine, Florence is a city that truly captures the heart and soul.

Modern fashion & historic art

Milan is the capital of the Lombardy region in northern Italy and is known for its rich history, art, and fashion. It is home to many famous landmarks, including the Duomo di Milano, a gothic cathedral with stunning architecture, and the Galleria Vittorio Emanuele II, an upscale shopping center housed in a glass-domed arcade.

CUSTOM TOURS OF ITALY

Welcome to Custom Tours of Italy dot com.  

If you'd like to experience your own custom, privately guided vacation of Italy, then read on!  I book everything for your private Italy vacation from the air travel to all other aspects and escort you on your Custom vacation of Italy!....Post Covid in 2023,

I tour guided two couples in May for 21 days and then in October I escorted one couple for 22 days -  I do NOT have pre-made itineraries and use the "cookie cutter" tour concept! Those lower budget shorter duration pre-packaged tours to Italy have you staying only 2 nights in places trying to see too much. I don't do less than 3 nights in any one place.

Italy is SO much better if you slow it down and customize your own guided tour of Italy. My tours are typically smaller group tours with 2 to 6 tourists with me in Italy on the local level.

There's a lot to see in Italy so don't try to do it all in one trip, assume you will go back again!  Lets determine together what you like to do when traveling and then  I ESCORT YOU  on your very own private Italy vacation, no two tours are alike! 

Email me to start the process, there are no bad questions and itineraries are NOT pre-made - it's CUSTOM TOURS OF ITALY!

A small sample of Custom Tours to Italy ideas....

- The 3 top destinations of Venice, Florence and Rome but stay LONGER in those cities than the pre packaged tours?

- Do you need 5 star hotels everywhere with first class treatment ?....then let's build your first class custom vacation tour of Italy.

- Want to do just rustic farm stays called Agriturismo's? - I book farm stays all the time -

lets customize your Italian farm vacation in Italy.

Splendor of Sicily 8 Days Tour - from Catania

This was our 6th bus tour but first for Tourradar. It was excellent because good standard of hotel, which were also centrally located. Was given adequate free time so we were not always rushing. Day start time were good. Included breakfast dinner and some lunch all good Sicily plenty to see wonderful place BUT difficult for group with 3 languages so info was rushed and difficult to follow Plus Tour leader treated up as sheep do not ask why but just follow me and accept. Prefer to be given option eg follow me how long how far and why . Also tourradar excellent response time to questions. Roberto & Debbie

Deluxe Italian Escape with picturesque Cinque Terre

From start to finish Wanderful Holidays were extremely helpful and tentative. Wanderful holidays answered all our questions quickly and ensured all our needs were met when planning our trip. The hotels they selected for us were perfect as they were on the upper side of hotels ratings. The tours were also well planned and the meeting points were easy to find. The overall logistics of the hotels, tours, transfers, and communication excelled expectations, as there was always someone from Wanderful checking-in and ensuring we made it to our tours and transfers. We would definitely book again, as Wanderful provides a very personalized holiday experience.

4 Days NORTHERN LAKES TOUR - from Milan

Overall it was a very nice tour. I enjoyed our visits, there was a mention in other reviews as well ,about the hotels, and I have to agree, unless you have the upgraded option not all hotels are good. There were a few hiccups in the program as well. One of the visits was scheduled on the day the cathedral was closed. The private boat ride on another which was supposed to offer a cocktail on the boat was also canceled. There's absolutely room for improvement in the scheduling and the visits. Also lunch time at your own was a short hour or so, which made it very hard to find where to eat in a town you don't know at all. Italians tend to take their time with serving food so that was a big challenge. There was a mention about free wifi available, which was not the case. In one of the previous tours I took there wifi on-board the bus, but here there was none. Big problem for north Americans who don't want to pay hefty long distance charges.

7 Days NORTHERN LAKES AND DOLOMITES TOUR - from Milan

I’m so pleased that I have the opportunity to write a review about our trip. At the end of our trip, I was given just a few lines on a piece of paper to give my opinion, and I told our tour guide there and then, that I HAVE TO make sure and get online to write a detailed review! Our trip was fantastic all thanks to Tour Radar! There wasn’t any day where I felt lost or out of sorts with what to do and how to get about. Even for hiccups like suddenly getting sick, their staff was so kind and understanding. One quick call, and they’re always available for your littlest of questions. Our guides took good care of us and were so gentlemanly! Special thanks to Guido for making our trip extra comfy and easy going, and sharing his tips on finding the best/reasonable restaurants. Also, thank you to Alessandro for tolerating our pickiness and indecisiveness, and allowing us to customize the trip of a lifetime! This was such an amazing and memorable experience, and we’d be sure to retain your services again!

Mini Tour of Sicily from Catania to Palermo

The content was good; the number of people in the group was too large; the guide Placido coped with this very well in 3 languages, but the requirement for him to give every explanation 3 times meant delays in the urban tours; it would have been helpful for each client to be issued with a basic tourist map of Sicily, especially on the last day when we crossed right across the island; the hotel in Catania was OK with comfortable room, but with very poor shower water pressure; the hotel in Palermo was also OK, although we found their bar prices exorbitant (4.5 euros for tap water!!) and the dinner menu with no choice rather poor.

Classic Tour of Italy from Rome

The overall experience on this tour was Excellent. It was a well organized tour and I would like to give Omar - the travel agency (Soleto) a five star. Everything is in our satisfaction though there was a small glitch I would say it was a good adventure for my wife and me. Well done Omar!

Tour of Sicily and Aeolian Islands - from Palermo

Very good tour of Sicily and Aeolian Islands. A perfect blend of cultural tours in Sicily and natural beauty of the splendid Aeolian Islands. At the Aeolian Islands, we enjoyed free time to relax and spend some time at the seaside. Having some free time alongside excursions to the other islands was great for us! Impeccable organisation, assistance. Thank you guys for making this possible!

MINI TOUR OF SICILY from PALERMO TO CATANIA

Amazing guided tour of Sicily. I particularly appreciated the choice of the hotels in which we stayed, all very beautiful and with a great location jn particular the villa diodoro of taormina. The guide was informative without being boring, helpful and polite. The meals included were abundant but of good quality.

Charming Amalfi Coast Tour - 5 day from Rome

Mum and I had a great trip. We were a bit shocked to see we and one other person were the only ones on the trip however we still had a really good time. The places we went to were great and the organisation of all the transportation was excellent. The accomodation was great and the few nights in a Sorrento were amazing!!! The view! Wow. I would highly recommend this trip to anyone. We feel we really got our money’s worth.

Wonders of Sicily - Monolingual tour in English from Catania

Well organized, Franco, tour director, was amazing, went out of the way to accommodate everyone and provided many historical facts; Salvatore, the driver, was excellent, Omar from Soleto Travel was very accommodating and responded to each request. One thing I would change- eliminate fish market in Palermo and go ona tour inside Massimo Teatro instead. Overall, great tour. Food was ok, some local foods were not edible but maybe it’s just me. Highly recommend the agency and the tour.

Italy Winter Escape Tour 10 days from Rome

8 Days PUGLIA AND CALABRIA TOUR - from Rome

The tour was great and our guide Alessandro was excellent. The overall rating would have been Excellent but for the so-called 4 star hotels actually being 3 star hotels. One hotel room must have been constructed around the bed, the room was so small. The last hotel seemed to have no English speaking staff. Alessandro’s knowledge of history and the region was very broad and we learned quite a bit. He was always helpful.

What people love about Custom Tours in Italy

We had a fantastic time! The scenery was spectacular, the history fascinating, the food and wine, we really didn’t want to leave.

I can’t say enough good things about our experience in Sicily thanks to Mossimo and his team. Excellent, informative tour guides…Denise, Carlos, Antonio and Sem. The cooking class may have been the highlight, but all of the activities were fun and the pace of the tour, planned activities/free time mix was perfect. Will definitely recommend!

There was a little confusion at the beginning at the hotel. Lack of communication was unclear. Our guide Irene was excellent and a good problem solver. She looked after us like a mother hen

The Vatican Museums

Walk through the treasures of the Vatican and the Sistine Chapel on your private guided experience. Navigate through the intriguing history of the Vatican Museums as you explore its vast network of corridors and galleries, ranging from ancient sculptural monuments to Renaissance masterpieces. This tour concludes with your guide revealing the history, symbolism, and significance of the most extraordinary artifacts in the Sistine Chapel, including Michelangelo’s breathtaking ceiling frescos.

The Colosseum

Learn the fascinating and often brutal history of the Colosseum on a guided tour of the famous amphitheater including The Cavea & The Vomitori. Our team can arrange for you to explore the Colosseum’s Underground chambers, an area off-limits to standard tours.

Guided tours of perhaps the most prestigious holy temples in Christendom. Our private tours enable you to climb to the top of the Dome, while inside, you will find extremely impressive pieces of art, including a large bronze baldachin designed by Bernini, The Pietà, a sculpture by Michelangelo, and the statue of St Peter on his throne.

The Trevi Fountain

This gorgeous Baroque-style fountain is a must-visit in Rome. Your guide will reveal the centuries of history and symbolism on display throughout the structure and will explain why so many leave coins behind in the fountain. Did you know that approximately 1 million Euros are retrieved from the fountain each year and put to charitable causes?

Renowned for its Italian-Byzantine architecture, St Mark’s Basilica is certainly not one to miss on your Venice Tour.

Your guide will lead you inside this Gothic masterpiece (in the St.Mark’s Basilica skip the line entrance), which was originally the private chapel of the Doge and meant to house the supposed relics of St. Mark the Evangelist.

Found to the right of St. Mark’s, and distinguished by its white and rose-colored herringbone brick façade and highly stylized Gothic white stone arches that lend it a uniquely Venetian flavor.

The building served as the center of governmental power and was the Doge’s residence until the Napoleonic invasion of 1797.

Tour around this magnificent structure with your expert guide before continuing your Venice tour to one of the many nearby sites.

The Rialto Bridge

Alongside visiting some of the best examples of Venetian Renaissance architecture to be found in the city, we will take in the iconic Rialto bridge – considered so ambitious during its construction five centuries ago that many believed it wouldn’t remain standing.

Guided tours of the city include Palermo Cathedral, erected in 1185 in the area of an earlier Byzantine basilica. You then continue onto the Four Corners which is the center point of the four areas of the old town center, decorated with sculptures commissioned by the Spanish Viceroy in 1611.

Going southeast down Via Maqueda you will come across Piazza Pretoria. The large central fountain is the focal point for sixteen nude statues of nymphs, humans, mermaids, and satyrs.

A gorgeous town located on the northern coast of Sicily and one of the major tourist attractions in the region. Visit the ancient Cathedral constructed in 1131 and stroll through the medieval narrow street and admire the picturesque houses on the sea and the long beach of finest sand.

The cultural hub of the whole area, it hosts many libraries and a large number of interesting museums. Walking through the old town, the signs of the passage of various civilizations over the centuries are immediately evident, and all left architectural, artistic, and monumental evidence. Its oldest and characteristic streets are Via Garibaldi, Corso Italia, and Corso Vittorio Emanuele.

Like many of Sicily’s coastal towns, Siracusa was once an ancient Greek settlement of the Magna Graecia era. Go back in time with your expert local guide and discover the city’s ancient relics, medieval monuments, and modern-day market.

Taking nearly six centuries to complete and even larger than the Sistine Chapel in Rome, the Milan Cathedral is dedicated to the Nativity of St Mary and is the seat of the Archbishop of Milan.

Galleria Vittorio Emanuele II Shopping Mall

Perfect for luxury shopping during your Italian vacation, the shopping mall is the oldest in the country and takes its name after the first king of the kingdom of Italy.

Once a domineering defensive fortification, this gorgeous 15th-century structure now houses several engrossing museums.

Museo del Novecento Art Museum

Explore the home of 20th Century art in Milan with your private guide and skip the line tickets.

A resort spot synonymous with leisure since Roman times, with its striking white houses that begin around the Church of Santa Maria Assunta and seem to sweep down toward the sea. Explore the numerous artisan workshops and bottegas with your private guide

Let our guides lead you through the once-buried city’s extraordinary relics, explaining its history in an engaging and interesting way. Step back in time as you survey the Roman Forum, baths, theatre, a brothel, and ancient shops. Peer into the lives of the ancient city’s inhabitants, as you visit their houses and the streets they walked along every day. You can also glimpse the famous ‘plaster cast’ bodies of its former citizens, frozen in the final moments of their lives as Vesuvius erupted.

A historic center made up of a maze of narrow lanes lined with shops, cafès, restaurants, and limoncello sellers. To one side, the crystalline sea, and to the other lush hills covered in citrus groves. Highlights like Capri, Positano, Amalfi, Ravello, Pompeii, Herculaneum, Mount Vesuvius, and Ischia are all within striking distance for a day trip.

Salerno is an old and charming city at the end of the Amalfi Coast. Its historic center offers interesting art treasures, especially from Medieval times such as the Cathedral and the Castle that you will visit with your local guide.

Tuscany Wine Tours

Explore the hills of Tuscany and its famous Sangiovese vines or famous wine estates such as Chianti, Siena, Montepulciano, and San Gimignano.

I n the Uffizi Museum, you will experience some of the most incredible works of art to be found anywhere in the world as your private guide takes you around the installations and collections of Renaissance artwork found in the 60 halls spanning the 12th century to the 16th. Explore works of Masters such as Michelangelo, Da Vinci, Rembrandt, and more.

Florence Cathedral & Duomo di Firenze

A stunning UNESCO World Heritage site, the Dome of Florence Cathedral provides the best view across the city and is a must-visit attraction on any Florence tour.

The Galleria dell’Accademia di Firenze, or “Gallery of the Academy of Florence”, is most famous for hosting a collection of Michelangelo’s works including Prisoners, which was originally intended for the tomb of Pope Julius II, and an unfinished statue of Saint Matthew, and of course most famous of all for being home to the world’s most celebrated statue, Michelangelo’s David.
