Company Description

Italian Itinerary is an exclusive travel design company specializing in creating custom Italian experiences, no matter how specific or unique.

For our clients, we put together a curated Italian experience, through our local contacts and vast experience organizing events, productions and so on throughout Italy, to create the most authentic and bespoke experience possible.

These itineraries will not just be tours of the "classic" monuments.

Rather than just seeing, we believe in involving people in their Italian itinerary.

We are supporters of the concept of #slowtravel #slowitaly.

We assist every step of the way - from hotels and transport to food and wine, to private tours and lessons, creating the Italian vacation that will be the trip of a lifetime.

Our market is aimed at Anglo-Saxons (Brits, North Americans, and all English speaking countries), so fluent English IS required for this internship, and residency in North America is preferred, but not mandatory.
