Itineraries

Customized itineraries are perfect for travelers who are looking for a full-service experience. We will start with a call to find out about you, your previous travel experience and any thoughts you have about your Italy vacation. We’ll share our experience with you and together we’ll outline your trip. Then we get to work on the details and get back to you in 3-5 days (this can take longer for vacations of more than 14 days) with your itinerary and we’ll schedule another call to talk through it together.

Independent itineraries are for travelers looking for expert guidance to help them plan their own trip. This service begins with a call where we talk about what you’d like to do and how best to do it. We then create a day-by-day plan, including insider tips and different suggestions for you to explore and we’ll be available to answer any questions that come up along the way.

The best times of year to visit Italy are generally in spring (April to early June) or fall (September & October). The weather is warm and mild and there are fewer crowds than in high summer.

From June to August, do as the Italians do and head for the fresher air of the lakes and mountains.

If picture-perfect weather isn’t a priority for you, winter can be a wonderful time to explore Italy’s many museums and galleries without the crowds.

10-14 days is the perfect time for a classic Italy vacation with time to visit 3-4 different cities.

Italy is generally a safe country, but do take basic precautions to reduce the risk of petty crimes in crowded areas. You’ll find some suggestions in our packing tips for staying safe during your Italy trip.
