What travelers are saying

"The tour we did for a week with Gennaro as our guide completely exceeded our expectations. The group was such a lovely group and Gennaro was the perfect guide. His passion and knowledge of his homeland was both informative and a pleasure to learn about. We would highly recommend the tour. The organisation was fantastic with Gennaro changing the itinerary to suit the conditions which made every day great. After spending 4 weeks in Italy we can honestly say the walking tour week was our favourite. Highlights were out day at Ravello and really enjoyed the pizza and pasta making nights. So much fun."

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
