Curated
Recommendations
Curated lists of recommendations tailored to your personal interests, travel dates, and budget. Perfect for the traveler who wants personalized, insider travel intel for guidance and inspiration, but doesn't need a full day-by-day itinerary or planning support. Think of it as a curated version of Trip Advisor with thoughtfully vetted and non-obvious recommendations handpicked just for you! Choose a tier based on the approximate number of recs you need in total. Occasionally I may throw in a few extra :)

ABOUT
Curated guides, tailor-made itineraries, and insider travel tips for unforgettable adventures in Italy. Specializing in local food, wine, cocktails, and unique exploration in regions and towns north to south. I have experience planning trips to destinations ranging from small towns in Tuscany with a population of 29, to Italy's largest cities. My recommendations are carefully selected based on quality, location, and overall experience. Typically in centrally located areas so that you won't have to travel too far from any city center to find the best of the best - without falling into tourist traps! What's included in my travel planning services? ONE: Planning a trip to Italy can be overwhelming, especially when it comes to finding the best places to visit, what to see and what to do. My goal is to help you get clarity on what places to visit and when. TWO: Make expert recommendations based on your interests, travel needs, your travel pace, foods & drinks you love, and the experiences you enjoy. THREE: Make planning less stressful by saving you hours of research and help you to stop second guessing, narrow down your choices, and choose the best options for you. Looking forward to helping plan your next trip! Let's chat.

Questions
Can I book more than one travel creator at the same time?
Yes! In fact, many of our customers book multiple travel creators for help with various aspects of their trip. For example, you can have a consultation call with one creator, but then book another to plan and organize your itinerary.
