Wary of standard tours that limit your experience to crowded tourist spots without showing you the real Italy? Good thing you found me!
You have finally decided to travel to Italy. Better yet, you have even purchased your flight. You are already dreaming of sipping your Aperol Spritz in a piazza surrounded by Renaissance palaces and Baroque squares. But how do you pick the right activities to make the most of the limited time you have in Italy?
Italy offers a huge and diverse array of experiences, and this makes it overwhelming when it comes to choosing what you are going to see and do.
When you book a trip, you want everything to be perfect. You don’t want it to be just another vacation. Italy is the destination you have fantasized about for years.
But right now? You feel stuck between too many choices, too little time, and the unrelenting fear that you are going to miss something important.
Think about it…
- You need to study, research and plan for months
- You hired a travel agent who drops the ball on you halfway because she/he doesn’t really know Italy firsthand
- Most standard tours are all the same, too fast-paced and made for large groups
- You arrive in Italy and realize you should’ve booked a different hotel, taken a different route, or planned for more time in a place you barely considered.
But most of all, you don’t want to miss the moments that make Italy’s dolce vita.
Picture yourself…
- Opening your window to the Mediterranean breeze
- Dripping crusty bread into golden olive oil
- Toasting with your family and friends in a vineyard
- Saying your prayers surrounded by art in a Baroque Basilica
- Picturing aristocracy walking the rooms of a Renaissance villa
- Trekking along breathtaking coastal views in Sardinia
Let’s face reality: you can’t see everything in only one trip, but there are all the ingredients to make your dream holiday come true. You just need to find them and skillfully organize them.
This is where I come in

If we haven’t met yet, hi, I’m Angela, a certified travel designer made in Sardinia and living between Rome and Sardinia.
When I’m not behind my desk crafting tailor-made Italy itineraries, I can be found exploring my beautiful country in the quest for hidden gems, tucking into local specialties, getting lost in medieval towns, and discovering archaeological sites off the beaten track.
Not sure what to expect? Here are a few things to expect:
- First-hand knowledge and experience
- Hours of research saved
- No risk of missing out
- Public transport explained
- No tourist traps
- Tips on how to prepare for your trip
You might argue:
Why would I pay someone to do what I can research myself?
Sure, you can plan it yourself. But do you have 30+ hours to research the right train routes, vet accommodations, cross-check local schedules, and decode Italian travel quirks? As a local travel designer from and living in Italy, I filter the noise, saving you weeks of effort and delivering the best options matched to your style.
I like having control over my plans.
Perfect! You’re not handing over your trip, you’re setting the tone and the rules for me to start working towards the vacation you want.
Will this make the trip feel too structured?
Quite the opposite. The goal is to craft the itinerary you want, show you the places you have been dreaming of, with the structure that best suits you in order to make you feel supported, not rushed around. Whether you are looking for a custom itinerary where sightseeing alternates with enough free time or a full tour where all aspects are planned and the logistics taken care of, I’ll make it happen.
Is this worth the extra cost?
Here are two things I’m aware of: your time is worth something, and your travel memories are priceless. You could build your itinerary yourself, but the risk is that it won’t flow and will cost more in mistakes. My job is to protect your investment and make sure every day of your trip delivers on meaning and ease.

Your tailor-made Italy itinerary: how it works
Initial consultation
Our journey begins with a conversation. Share your travel aspirations and interests with me. I’ll get to know you to ensure every aspect of your itinerary aligns with your desires.
Customized proposal
Based on our discussion, I will present you with a detailed proposal outlining the suggested itinerary, complete with accommodation options (if you need any), activities, landmarks, and local restaurants.
Upon receiving this first draft, you will have the chance to provide your feedback so that I can fine-tune the plan to perfection. Whether you want to add or remove a monument or a town, whether you prefer to extend your time in a place and shorten it elsewhere, this is the time to let me know.
Fine-tuning and confirmation
I believe in collaboration. Don’t hesitate to let me know if you have doubts or want to make some changes. This is YOUR trip, so my work is done when the travel plan is perfect for YOU.
