off the beaten track

Travel with us "off the beaten track" to charming places of exceptional beauty and of great cultural interest. The adventure begins when we assist you in customizing a journey for you on the roads less traveled  to places less touched by commercial tourism. Sometimes a slower pace allows for a more in-depth experience of the places visited.

We love to surprise our customers with sights and experiences that are unexpected and that leave a lasting impression. Sometimes "insiders' tips" and "word-of-mouth" can be more rewarding than following a guide book. Enjoying lunch on a family farm can be a more memorable, enjoyable and educational experience than visiting a world-famous edifice in some famed metropolis...

Among other themed trips, our Food and Wine Tours have been acclaimed as some of the best travel programs offered. They are a blend of culture, history, beautiful landscapes with a focus on regional cuisine, wines and other beverages. Cooking classes can be included, as well as olive-oil tasting, balsamico vinegar tasting, as well as visiting the artisan producers of parma ham and parmesan cheese.

On our trips, you'll never be abandoned, stranded or lost: our professional tour managers personally accompany and guide every travel party that books our tour services.

our philosophy

We take great pleasure in enabling you to discover hidden treasures not found in the standard travel guides or on the mass-tourism routes.  We find it rewarding to share with you the joys of exploring the cultural and historic highlights of tucked-away towns and villages.

We love introducing you to families who take pride in producing anything from wine to cheese, balsamic vinegar to olive oil, or handcrafted hams to organic produce. We taste their products, enjoy lunch on their property or even take a hands-on cooking class. On Food and Wine tours, we take pride in arranging dinners of authentic regional food paired with perfect wines to accompany each course.

We can’t wait to show you our favorite places to stay, be it at a castle hotel, a working farm, a luxury hotel or a villa in Tuscany. We view every trip that we hand-tailor with you as a work of art just waiting to be discovered and enjoyed.
