Italy…..always!

Over 80% of my full-service bookings are for Italy—and for good reason. Italy has long been a beloved destination for couples, families, and explorers of every kind. But what truly makes it extraordinary?

Italy’s landscape is remarkably diverse: soaring mountains, glittering coastlines, vibrant cities, and charming countryside villages. Ski in the Dolomites, dive into the turquoise waters of the Amalfi Coast or Puglia, explore Rome’s ancient history, wander Florence’s world-renowned museums, or indulge in Bologna’s culinary scene. Italy offers something for every traveler, every passion, every moment.

But for me, Italy is more than a postcard-perfect destination—it’s personal. It’s the birthplace of my father and grandparents, the culture that shaped my childhood, and the place where food, family, and heartfelt connection were the center of life. I grew up with long Sunday dinners, warm embraces, and a deep appreciation for the joy of gathering around a table. That sense of togetherness is the heartbeat of Italy.

In college, I had the privilege of studying abroad in Florence, and it was nothing short of magical. I lived steps from the city’s historic treasures, explored Italy on the weekends, and embraced the rhythm of everyday Italian life. When you slow down—when you stroll through cobblestone streets, savor a lingering dinner, and watch the world go by in a sun-soaked piazza—you begin to understand what makes Italy so special.

In my opinion, every traveler should experience Italy—not only to witness masterpieces like the Sistine Chapel or the David, but to truly feel the Dolce Vita. Sit in a piazza. Listen. Breathe. Look around. Italy isn’t just a place you visit—it’s a place that stays with you.

Andiamo-Let’s go!
