Your luxury Italy holiday awaits

Luxury travel in Rome, ItalyLuxury travel in Venice, Italy

Stand in any Italian piazza at sunset, when golden light glows against century-old stones, Aperol spritzes clink across candlelit tables, and aperitivo promises another perfect Italian evening – and you'll understand why Giuseppe Verdi offered to trade the universe for this country.

Luxury travel in Venice, ItalyLuxury travel in Tuscany, Italy

Italy masters the art of never revealing all its secrets, except to those who hold the right keys. Beyond the iconic canals of Venice, the Colosseum, and rolling Tuscan hills lie endless discoveries: a hidden Caravaggio in a quiet church, an unmarked door to Milan's best pizza, a coastal path to a pristine Ligurian cove.

Your luxury Italy holiday awaits

Luxury travel in Rome, ItalyLuxury travel in Naples, Italy

While the bucket-list Italy still enthrals, its lesser-known pleasures enchant just as deeply: a dawn espresso in a discreet café, late-night pasta in Trastevere, being the sole guest at a noble Barolo vineyard. This is the essence of la dolce vita—just when you think you’ve seen it all, Italy pens its next intriguing chapter.

The famous restaurant Rugantino in Trastevere, Italy
  • “Ticked off the Amalfi Coast, Lake Como and Cinque Terre? Try Ischia, a small volcanic island off the coast of Naples. One of Italy's best-kept secrets, it pairs thermal pools in ancient gardens with family-run restaurants and a stunning medieval castle - all without the crowds. You'll find all the beauty of Amalfi here, but with an authenticity that's harder to find on the mainland.”

    Rachael Heelan

  • “Don't just see the Vatican Museums – experience them in silence. We can arrange early morning private viewings before the doors open to the public, letting you appreciate the Sistine Chapel in perfect tranquillity.”
