About Us

Our Story

"My first trip to Italy in 2013 was packed with must-see attractions and experiences, from gondola rides in Venice to photos next to Pisa's leaning tower. But over many years and trips to the bel paese, old and new local connections allowed me to venture well off the beaten path.

I believe that in order to experience all this country has to offer, you must check off unmissable highlights while discovering the authentic side of Italy through the eyes of locals. That’s how Discover Italia came to be!

Imagine yourself touring a family-owned lemon grove on the Amalfi Coast.. zipping through the streets of Rome on the back of a Vespa… learning an Italian nonna's secrets to a traditional carbonara... and so much more!

Our extensive and trusted network of local providers specialize in classic and unique experiences, while our U.S. based team ensures a seamless and professional delivery. You'll leave feeling rejuvenated, inspired, and like you've found your second home. We can’t wait to help you discover Italia!"
