Classic Italy

Our small-group trips, led by expert Local Insiders, are all about opening up your dream destinations so you can experience them on a more intimate level. In Italy, that could mean stopping at a Puglian olive farm, where you’ll sample peppery, freshly pressed olive oil, before lunching at a local masseria (traditional Puglian farmhouse). Or, heading north, it could be a scenic trek through Cinque Terre National Park, where pastel-painted fishing villages tumble down cliff sides to the Ligurian Sea.

If that sounds like too much work, a catamaran cruise along the coast of Sardinia might be more your speed. The second-largest Italian island is an all-you-can-enjoy buffet of beautiful beaches, glittery port towns and dramatic rock formations. Or perhaps sipping aperitifs from the comfort of a piloted boat on Lake Como tickles your fancy? Whatever your definition of la dolce vita, we’ve got an unforgettable Italian itinerary to suit your tastes.
