What travelers are saying

"Lake Como is a beautiful part of the world!! Our hotel was right on the edge of the lake, the amazing views definitely make it worth getting up in the morning!! The hotel is comfortable and clean. The staff are very helpful & our meals in the hotel restaurant were delicious with plenty of choice. The walks gave us the opportunity to explore the area & find different places to take in the breathtaking views. Nigel, our guide, was very knowledgeable about the area and entertained us with stories & facts about the region. He also took every effort to make sure everyone in the group was taken care of, including preparing great picnics to meet all dietary requirements. I'd definitely recommend this trip to anyone who loves walking & getting of the beaten track to explore the real Italy!! Thank you Nigel & Explore!!"

What travelers are saying

"We joined the Intrepid “Real Italy Food Tour” and enjoyed it thoroughly. Our tour guide, Micol, was very knowledgeable and provided us with lots of good information. It seems Micol knew many of the staff of the venues we visited, including the pasta making class we attended. Our group of 11 travelers was extremely compatible, which greatly added to the fun and enjoyment."

Cultural Tour Selection Trips

  • Cultural tours are all about learning and gaining a deeper understanding. Be respectful and open minded.
  • Don’t be afraid to ask questions! Your tour will only be enhanced by the more you engage with locals and your guides.
  • Figure out what type of cultural experience you’re looking for. Are you interested in visiting a small, remote village for an intense, sometimes uncomfortable look at another way of life? Or are you interested in a more relaxed cultural experience, like a food tour in Italy
