What places and activities do you specialize in?

"We specialize in any kind of active travel throughout Italy: from the most strenuously active trips to mostly cultural ones, with just some light walking. Tuscany, the Dolomites, Puglia, Amalfi Coast, the Cinque Terre are just some of the destinations we work with.

We are the Italian experts for Via Francigena, the "Camino to Rome", taking walkers from the Alps of Aosta Valley to Rome passing through ever-changing landscapes, artistic cities and traces of ancient civilizations - I cycle some of the legs myself, to check the itinerary and apply marking signs. "

How did you get involved in travel?

"Since I was a child I was always pushed from my family away from home, not with bad intentions but actually to let the hunger of discovery grow inside me.

At the age of 17, I went studying abroad in the United States, more precisely in South Dakota! Imagine now a 17 year old boy coming from a big city like Milan living one year in the most remote place in the US, amazing! I think that throughout that year I have realized the importance of traveling and meeting new people. "

Please share a unique travel experience you will never forget.

"I had few unique travel experiences but the most important one I think it was when I saw the northern lights for the first time in Finland.

It was insanely cold and dark outside as we went for a walk hoping to see the famous northern lights, we were about to give up and as we were walking back to the accommodation all of a sudden a greenish moving light started crawling on the top of our heads. We literally stopped and stood still for more than 10 minutes enjoying the magic."
