BACK
For full itinerary clients, our service is affectionately known as "touchdown to takeoff."
This means that from the first private driver waiting to greet you when you touch down in Italy...
until your final transfer to the airport for your return flight... We take care of everything you could possibly need.
All of your transfers and transportation.
Every exquisite tour, activity, and special experience.
Seamless logistics to ensure you have every possible moment available for your enjoyment.
And, if you choose, your ideal accommodation arrangements as well.

When we say "private" we mean private.
This word is inappropriately used all over the travel industry - and you often won't know until you show up if there are going to be other people on your "private" tour.
Our promise to you is that we're going to meticulously plan for the needs, interests, preferences, and considerations of the following:
1) you, the person reading this right now
2) whoever you invite to travel with you
That's it.
So when your private driver comes to pick you up, he is only driving you - where you want, for as long as you want, modifying along the way as you want.
Your private tour guide for the Vatican? Tailoring each step and site to your personal interests - there's no script to follow, so she's happy to change on the fly.
If you're reading this, you're a little old for field trips. At least, that's what we think. Which is why we are devoted to fully private travel - in the truest sense of the word.
BACK
Travel agents click buttons. Travel sales reps repeat scripts. Most travel companies run sales to fill seats.
The reality is that for most of the standard travel industry, you're a number that generates a number they hope will help them meet "their numbers."
Us on the other hand?
We consider ourselves matchmakers - finding out exactly what's on your wishlist and matching you with the best local expert out of our extensive network of over 530 throughout Italy.
When we say "local," we mean hyper-local. No one from Venice is going to come down to try to pretend they know Rome. And we're never going to pull an Eastern Sicilian food and wine expert to give you a historical highlights tour of Pompeii.
We use your names when we arrange your travel. We've replaced agent's buttons with actual conversations:
"Marcello, we're so excited to introduce you to Robert and Christie who are celebrating their 25th anniversary. Here's what we're thinking for the three hours they'll have with you..."
Travel matchmaking. It's what we absolutely love to do.
BACK
The sky is the limit when it comes to customizing your dream trip to Italy. (Quite literally if you're interested in a hot air balloon ride!)
So, if you want to see every work of Caravaggio possible, we'll help you do it in a way that's not exhausting.
If half of your group is thrilled at the idea of a cooking class and the other half would rather do anything else...we'll make everyone happy.
If your family is from a tiny mountain town and you are torn between wanting to visit and do the standard Italy vacation highlights - we'll make them both happen seamlessly.
The work we do is not easy - but it is beautiful and oh, so worth it. We've spent years, invested hundreds of thousands of dollars - not to mention truly countless hours and kilometers - to create our personally vetted, hand-selected network of over 530 dream makers throughout Italy.
All of this so that we could offer "fully custom - anywhere in Italy." And it fills us with pride beyond measure that we are able to truly fulfill that promise, without exception, to everyone who has ever requested it.
Let us take on the challenge of turning a dream into reality - and you'll get to enjoy every minute of the reward.
If you're curious if we can do something for you, as unique or difficult as it may seem, ask away. We can already tell you that the answer is going to be "Si." Yes.
BACK
When you work with Italiana Travel Design, there's no such thing as "Sorry...I'm still learning the system."
When we opened our doors (or, more accurately, when they were beat down by demand over a year prior to when we planned on opening them!) we already had over a decade of experience traveling to and through Italy in the most unrestricted, authentic, and meaningful ways.
So when you're working with our design team in the pre-departure phase, you're working with people who understand the pros and cons of every single choice that can possibly be made along your itinerary. And who make those choices silently behind the scenes so you don't have to stress over them!
But for as exciting as it is to see your dream trip take shape on paper, screens, and in conversation, nothing compares to meeting with the Marios, Valentinas, Micheles, Alessandros, Giovannis, Francescos, and Luisellas that truly transform all the perfect planning into unforgettable experiences.
Every single person who guides you, drives you, teaches you, chats with you, feeds you, and sneaks you into the closed-to-the-public places during your time in Italy is a true expert in their field - who will treat you like a friend.
We don't have a 24/7/365 call center staffed with entry-level applicants. Because you deserve better.
You've worked hard for this trip. Your time is precious. You deserve experts - and only experts.
