Emi Carletti
I am originally half from Venice and Half from Apulia so I take part to both the Northern and the Southern souls of Italy. Since I was a little girl I've always been curious about world, different cultures, and all the amazing differences of the Nature. I've studied foreign languages because I wanted to work for international charity NGOs, what I've actually done for years. I live in Rome which I consider the most beautiful city in the world, but every now and then to escape from the city into Nature since I do love outdoor activities.
What places and activities do you specialize in?
"We are specialized in tours all over Italy, covering mostly the main destinations. We are also specialized in traveling by train as we really care about the environment, this is why we primary use train for our travel packages. We believe trains are the best and quickest way to travel along Italy from city to city, also the most eco-friendly in terms of CO2 emissions, energy consumption, use of space, or noise levels."
How did you get involved in travel?
"Well, since I think I am affected by a serious form of Wanderlust, I've been planning trips since I have memories. For me, my family, friends... So after my experience at charities here I am to do what is natural for me and I love that. I love taking care of travelers and I really like the Idea that I help them bringing home unforgettable emotions and memories. "
Please share a unique travel experience you will never forget.
"Among many adventures, hiking, climbing, canyoning, if I really had to choose... I will never forget the first time I did a Via Ferrata on the Dolomites. I hadn't slept the night before since I was really scared, but when I did it it was absolutely unbelievable. "

ROME- Our guided tour in Rome was fabulous due to Marco, our guide and our getting it done early before the crowds/heat. Getting our daughter delivered to the hotel was seamless as well. The hotel was nice but a little small as far as space goes. The elevator was hit or miss. The best part was the rooftop area where we could... Read more

We had Emi as our agent and she was beyond amazing. First, she as patient with us as we had started our planning and we were figuring out our different options. Once we finalized that it looked like she found the best hotels for our needs. We have never gone to Europe and were hesitant about using and agent, but we are SO glad we did. We will be using KimKim for future travel!

Just back from an amazing family vacation! Emi’s recommendations and planning allowed us to see and experience parts of Rome, Milan, Turin and Florence - both through relaxed self exploration within the cities and small group tours for daylong excursions in smaller towns nearby. The hotels, and train travel she organized made it easy to relax and enjoy the trip. Questions arose while we were traveling, and she was quick to reply - so nice to have a friendly local resource! Would definitely recommend and use this service again for future trips. Thank you Emi!
it's been a pleasure taking care of your trip and being your "Italian friend"! I usually feel like a guardian angel for our travelers and I am happy you appreciate our assistance service. :)
The most beautiful thing for me is to create not only a peace-of-mind vacation where everything goes smoothly, but also make our travelers feel they are not alone, that they really welcomed, relaxed and assisted. I'm really glad you had a great Italian experience with your family, and that I... Read more
Salerno - Amalfi Coast

I had a nice time in Salerno. My drivers were on time and helpful, my guide Anna in Salerno was excellent - she new her history and showed me the old part which I found interesting and even showed me street art which I love to see. It was nice to try some local fare as well and the host was lovely. Everything went well without a problem. The accommodation in Salerno was great - a small boutique hotel next to the train station and not too far from the ferry was perfect.
Well done Emi you did your job as requested. I'll use you again.
