Storywalking
Storywalking sprang from Jessica Proietti’s yearlong exploration of Italy top to bottom, delving into unusual urban and rural attractions, sights, crafts, workshops, kitchens - out-of-the-way places that tourism generally ignores. With tours throughout Italy, Storywalking operates under the premise that most people prefer unhurried, satisfying immersive experiences to viewing Italy from a van! Guided by personable experts, clients come to know Italy’s creative heart and passionate soul, exploring its nooks and crannies while listening to commentary and stories that bring places to life. Details are everything in this anecdotal approach. It leans more to illuminating the present and the past and less to recitations of building dimensions, dates and genealogies.

The guide for the walking tour was outstanding. The guide for the bike to Chianti was good, bikes and safety measure were not great. The bike team for Fiosole was outstanding as was their equipment. A transfer should have been recommended given the distance and obscurity of the meeting point. Again, the distance to the bike trip in Bellagio from our hotel should have been pointed out. It seemed there were closer options available for ebiking. Boat trip was fine. Both hotels were great, especially Villa D'Este. Thanks for all!

Kimkim did a great job of finding us rooms that were very centrally located for walking and getting to the places we wanted to go to. All of the guides were exceptional. The pick ups were always on time and easy to locate. Maria hooked us up with Storywalking in Sicily and they did a great job and were very responsive This was my second trip using Kimkim and I have referred many people to them and plan on using their services again in the future.
Ciao Lynn,
Thank you for your wonderful feedback! We're thrilled that me and my Storywalking ream helped make your trip so memorable :)
It's great to hear the centrally located accommodations and guides met your expectations, and that everything went smoothly.
We look forward to helping with your future adventures!
Best,
