A small family run travel company, founded in 2002, our holidays to Italy feature a two-week land-based tour of Sicily and a gastronomic tour of eastern Sicily from Syracuse to Taormina. We also offer what we consider the definitive expert-led tours of Rome.
On our escorted tours, we take only small groups of like-minded people, travelling in an easy-going, informal style. Alongside our scheduled tours, we also offer tailor-made gulet charters and private land tours. Our carefully crafted journeys will take you to some of the world’s best preserved ancient ruins and cultural sites, with a friendly and knowledgeable expert guide ready to bring their history to life.
Our expert-led cultural and archaeological tours in Italy, Turkey, Greece, Croatia, Ireland and the UK are led by guides who are true specialists – archaeologists, historians and travel writers – natural enthusiasts steeped in the history and culture of these countries. We choose our tour guides not just because they are extremely knowledgeable, but because they are great communicators and friendly hosts.
