Explore Italy
Perennially popular Italy is famous for good reason: a lovely climate, spectacular scenery, charming people, and of course sublime food.
Highlights include the well-known sights of Rome, Florence, Amalfi Coast, and Venice, where we can arrange private viewings at the Sistine Chapel, Uffizi, and L’Accademia. Or go a little off-piste and discover the delights of Sicily, the Dolomites, Lake Como, Puglia and the Aeolian Islands.
Make your trip meaningful by preparing and serving incredible cuisine to people in need, in a way that uplifts the individual and upholds their dignity.
Italy Highlights
Italy is rightly one of the world’s most popular destinations, with so much to see and do, from classics like Rome and Venice, to Gladiator Training school, the Ferrari Factory, and a cooking class with a masterchef.
Eco-Luxury in Italy
Italy does have some wonderful sustainable luxury properties outside of the cities, with our favorites being Villa Tasca in Palermo, Borghi dell’Eremo, Eremito, and the extraordinary Sextantio Le Grotte della Civita with rooms inside caves.
You can make a lasting difference in Italy by helping prepare and serve excellent cuisine to people in need of a good meal, whilst maintaining dignity. You will bond with your kids and they will return home inspired to be world changers.
