Tailor Made
Tailor-made is just that –bespoke travel, from a slight variation on a standard package to the gold-plated à la carte service. Using local knowledge and contacts, our specialist operators can ‘fix’ festivals, events, anniversaries, full itineraries, property-viewing, or partying at private palaces and villas.
Bespoke means listening to your brief and delivering options which meet your budget and requirements. It could be a case of taking your extended family on an art tour, or making sure your disabled mother is properly cared for on a cruise. Or it could be a corporate event, or bespoke escorted tours for groups of friends, societies, or associates.
Special occasions: our key operators will take on big birthdays, engagements, anniversaries, or New Year events. Or what about a wedding or honeymoon? If you’re looking for a special venue, we can find it, from fairytale castle to fortified farmhouse, chic chalet or designer den.
Festivals and cultural events: Love Italy operators can offer à la carte packages to the cultural highlights, from opera in Milan to the Palio in Siena or Carnival in Venice. There’s also opera in Naples, Palermo and Torre del Lago, ballet in Rome, or classical music festivals in Ravenna and on Lake Maggiore. A flexible package might well comprise tickets to the performance.
As for high culture, the Arena di Verona opera season attracts music-lovers to outdoor performances at the Roman amphitheatre. But for dedicated fans, a planner might also recommend the ‘backstage tour’, which presents the opera divas over a recital in a top hotel.
On the contemporary art scene, Turin and Milan continue to be the most dynamic cities, while the Venice Biennale remains an unmissable international jamboree.
Special interests: activities on offer encompass hot-air ballooning, yacht charter, wine-tasting, cookery courses, gourmet trails, painting, language classes, dancing courses or music recitals. You might wish to combine a Tuscan cookery course with learning Italian in Siena, or instead link a photography course with studying Roman cuisine in Rome.
Sports packages: it could be that you have always longed to drive a vintage car, sport's car or Formula One Ferrari. Perhaps you want to combine driving a classic Ferrari with visits to Modena, the home of Ferrari, and the home-grown car museums en route.
Privileged access: our operators endeavour to get you into palaces or parties that are normally off-limits. It might be a wine-tasting and gourmet dinner in exclusive palazzi in Sicily, Rome or Florence. It could be an invitation to a private Carnival ball in Venice. Perhaps you want a ‘cruise and stay’ package, with access to designer showrooms in Milan or top seats at a Grand Prix.
Property services: whether you are looking for a second home, an investment or relocation, our specialist operators can provide you with impartial advice. Some can organise property viewings or everything down to the sale.
What’s next: Our specialist operators will gladly develop an itinerary according to your brief.
