Small Groups Tours. Big Experiences.

Experience the Italian way of life through local eyes, in the most immersive and seamless way possible.

Led by a dedicated Italian tour leader (often one of Ciao Andiamo’s co-owners), these multi-day adventures delve deep into the regions of Italy, beyond the major cities and tourist attractions – the ultimate insider’s experience.

From private tours and tastings to curated dinners and artisanal experiences, our Italian experts create journeys that are best enjoyed with like-minded new friends in a close-knit setting. When we say small, we mean small – most trips feature no more than 7 travelers.

Our Travelers Tell The Story Best

Max ensured we saw authentic Italy. He has a true passion for his country that was palpable. He was not rigid and happy to accommodate if we wanted to stay in an area a little longer, duck into an extra building, etc. We travelled off the beaten path to small villages where we saw incredible landscapes and scenery. We were ushered into all of these small, remote wineries where there were no tourists or buses. At each winery we were made to feel like old friends. The welcome we received at each one of these places is indescribable.

Our guide Max was knowledgeable, fun, and made our Italian experience his top priority. The meals can only be described as magical feasts, in scenic spots on the water. We let Max handle the ordering, and seemingly endless platters of seafood, pasta, and anything we desired emerged from the kitchen along with MANY bottles of wine. Our group was the envy of other travelers, even Italians! We were the oldest couple on the trip, but bonded with our fellow travelers immediately and laughed almost all the time that we weren't eating.
