Very Personalized and Immersive Experience

My wife and I have been on 4 tours of Italy with Savour Italy Travel and are registered to go on our fifth. Each of the these tours have been nothing short of SPECTACULAR!!! Enduring memories were created on each. The tours were well organised, professionally run, and appropriately paced. You see some of the classic sights, but it is the long list of undiscovered, hidden gems that really sets these tours apart. You visit wonderful places you would never have found on your own (or on any other tour, for that matter). You end up feeling like a local and get the chance to make a genuine connection with many of the people in the areas you visit. You consume the same delicious foods and wines that they do. In addition to the magnificent sights and delectable meals, you come away with a profound understanding of the people, culture, traditions, food, and wine of the regions.

Loved our 15th century “palace’!

Cannot thank you enough for our most unforgettable adventure that you and your team designed for us!! The hotels and destinations could not have been more perfect! Our favorite was the 15th century “ palace” that had been made into a boutique hotel 8 years ago in Lecce. That hotel was truly amazing from the stunning rooms to the over the top staff! Also their breakfast that was freshly made each morning from the selected menu that they handed to you the day before. I was posting videos and pics along the way and all our friends were commenting about how beautiful the tour was. This was a fantastic tour that we will look back on and cherish our memories.
Cannot thank you enough!

Trip of a Lifetime!

22 days of Italy the Savour Italy way! My spouse and I just had the trip of a lifetime! We went from Rome, Amalfi, Florence, Tuscany, Pisa, Cinque Terre, Turin and returned from Venice. We experienced the best hotels, amazing tours with professional and knowledgeable tour guides, and smooth transfers by train. We felt like VIPs. Some of the highlights were the visit to the Vatican City and the Sistine Chapel, the Amalfi lemon grove tour and lunch, the Tuscany wine tour and the Langhe wine tour (Barolo). Savour Italy curated the entire excursion. We found the schedule and pacing to be perfect! I've recommended Savour Italy to family and colleagues. The Savour Italy team was a pleasure to work with.

Unique and Memorable

I've just completed the 13 day Southern Italy and Sicily tour with Savour Italy Tours. It's my second tour with this company and I was once again totally in awe of the entire experience. The tour was a bit more customized as a food and wine tour for our small group of 19 friends and colleagues. The final itinerary was just perfect, a mix of sights, tastes and downtime. The hotels Antonio selected were all wonderful, and all food and tasting experiences were unique and memorable. Antonio's passion for his homeland and his connections to the people who live and work here is heartfelt. The trip was snag-free and part of that was also the amazing transportation he had arranged. We felt safe and secure as we navigated some very challenging switchbacks and narrow streets. I cannot recommend Savour Italy Tours enough and I looking forward to my next adventure with them.

Surpassed My Highest Expectations

I would like to thank Antonio Mauriello of Savour Italy Tours for serving up a truly authentic travel experience. As an adventurous traveller, I’ve had the opportunity to take in a wide range of places. On this trip criss-crossing Italy from Rome to Palermo, Savour Italy has surpassed my highest expectations. Custom travel and local, local, local were always in the mix — not an easy task for a company providing experiences ranging from days to weeks. For me, this trip was truly exceptional due to Antonio's first-hand knowledge of Italy’s culture and regions, plus the respect he has earned from Italy’s hospitality leaders. If you want to live and breathe the flavours and colours that are Italy, then Savour Italy is a trusted travel companion. I have only one request: I would like to give Savour Italy 6 full stars, instead of 5. Grazie Mille!

Frequently Asked Questions

What's included in your custom packages?

Our custom packages are designed to include the best hotels, transportation, guides and activities in each destination you visit. What’s included can be tailored to you, based on the specific wants, needs, and budget you have for your trip.

Does Savour Italy Tours arrange flights?

While we can advise you on the best flight route, we do not purchase flights on behalf of clients. Many of our clients like to use their travel points or their preferred travel agent. If you need assistance in booking your flight, let us know and we will put you in touch with one of our partner travel agencies to help you find the best deal.

How much free time will I get?

We design our custom packages as dense as you like. Our assessment interviews with you will define your travel style to us. We recommend at least half day at leisure so that you can explore on your own and have some time to relax and fully absorb la “bella vita Italiana”.

Will guides and drivers be with me at all times during tours and excursions?

Yes. Our drivers and guides will be with you for the days you have activities or transfers. Our drivers pick you up and return you to your hotel once the activity is over.

I have special meal requirements. Can you accommodate me?

Definitely! This is very common request. Just notify us of any dietary restrictions at the time of booking and we’ll make sure that any meals meet your needs during your journey.

I have been to most of the main tourist spots in Italy, what else is there to see?

With over 20 regions, there is certainly more to see! We pride ourselves in providing unique and authentic packages that venture off the beaten path. Please feel free to reach out to us.

What type of accommodation do you book?

Before we book a hotel for our travellers, our team visits it and inspects it from top to bottom. A hotel makes our short list only when it meets our standards for safety, comfort, value, location and that little bit of flavour that turns a stay into something unique.

Do you include meals?

We always include all breakfasts with our hotels. Our final itineraries include the list of our favourite restaurants at each destination for you to pick and choose!

Do I need a visa to travel to Italy?

Italy does not require U.S. or Canadian citizens to purchase an entry visa. Non-U.S. or non-Canadian citizens can check if a visa is required for entry by visiting: vistoperitalia.esteri.it/home/en. Please let us know if you have any questions.

Do I need a passport to go to Italy?

Yes. Please check your passport’s expiration date before you reserve your tour. It must be valid for 3 months beyond your return date. Source: vistoperitalia.esteri.it/home/en.
