If you are going to Italy and are looking for an Italy tour guide or recommended Italy activities or need help creating an itinerary, you’re in the right place! Italy Beyond the Obvious has been creating custom Italy itineraries for independent travelers since 2008.
You’ve traveled. You’ve been there, done that. You know how much work it is to create a trip that flows smoothly and is designed around the things you want to do, at the pace you want to do it. Use our Italy travel planning services and let us take care of it.
As soon as you work as a tour leader in Italy, everyone wants advice. So I’d been planning trips to Italy for friends and family since about the mid-1990′s, and until August of 2008 I wasn’t charging for them. But when I started spending time getting to know my travelers in order to make good recommendations, I realized that it was much more time-consuming compared to doing it for friends I already knew well.
The beauty of Italy sells itself, but there is a lot of work involved in putting together an amazing trip! We have guides and drivers in Italy that make our trips amazing, but our team of trip planners make the magic happen, seamlessly and stress-free.
