Italy Travel Specialist

Undiscovered Italy
Undiscovered Italy

Passionate about all things Italian, I am your go-to Italy Travel Specialist with a deep-rooted love for the country and an in-depth understanding of its diverse culture and destinations. Having explored the charming cobblestone streets of small villages like Assisi and Orta San Giulio, as well as the iconic wonders of Rome, Florence, and Venice, My expertise and personal experiences make me an invaluable resource for planning your dream Italian adventure.

Experience: My journey as an Italy Travel Specialist began with my first trip to Italy many years ago, and I was instantly captivated by its enchanting beauty, rich history, and warm-hearted people. Since then, I have visited the country numerous times, uncovering hidden gems and forming lasting connections with locals along the way. I have traversed the rolling vineyards of Tuscany, savored authentic gelato in picturesque piazzas, and admired art and architecture that have stood the test of time.

Specialization: My specialization lies in crafting personalized itineraries that cater to every traveler's unique interests and desires. Whether you long to explore Italy's lesser-known gems, immerse yourself in the cultural meccas, or savor the delectable regional cuisines, I have the inside knowledge to curate a trip that exceeds your expectations.

Discovering Small Villages: I believe that some of Italy's most treasured experiences can be found in its charming small villages. I cherish the peaceful serenity of Assisi, where St. Francis's spirit seems to linger in every corner, and Orta San Giulio's idyllic lakeside setting that transports you to a fairy tale realm. My first-hand knowledge of these hidden gems ensures that you won't miss a single enchanting detail.

Embracing the Iconic: While uncovering the lesser-known gems of Italy is a passion for Me, I also understand the allure of the country's world-famous cities. With my guidance, you can explore the ancient ruins of Rome, bask in the Renaissance masterpieces of Florence, and glide along the romantic canals of Venice. My insider tips and recommendations will help you make the most of these iconic destinations, avoiding the crowds and accessing the best local experiences. 

Experiences not to be missed: Unique experiences in Rome that only a few get to experience, such as a visit to the Scavi.  The Vatican Necropolis underground the Vatican at St Peters.  Only allows so many visitors per day.  Or perhaps a stay at an amazing property that has actual ruins of the Roman Forum. Walking the roads of the Roman forum you step back in time hundreds of years. It always mesmerizes me to think I am walking where so many have journeyed before me . What were there stories? Entering the Sistine Chapel first thing in the morning, you look up and are completely moved at the magnificence of this spectacular creation of art.

Personal Connection: Italy is not just a destination; it's a place that holds a special place in my heart. My love for Italy extends beyond its tourist attractions; as I have personal relationships with local artisans, winemakers, and chefs. Through these connections, I can arrange exclusive experiences, such as private wine tastings, hands-on cooking classes, and intimate cultural encounters, enriching your journey in a way that only a true Italy enthusiast can offer.

My passion for Italy and my personal contacts in the country will be used to help you discover Italy. Discover the unexpected, the beauty, the history, the food, the wine and everything else that makes Italy a country filled with romance. You can stay in your own villa or some of our favorites hotels in the heart of the city. It all awaits you. This is why I specialize in Italy this is the Romance of Italy, this is Travel to Italy.

There is no need to spend so much time on Internet searches.  I would love to use my passion and love for Italy Travel to assist you in your visit

First international experience was amazing!

Reviewed By Kristen - Durango, CO | Traveled to Costa Rica ~ Central America
Teresa did an amazing job setting our trip up. The only thing I would do differently if we went back is to not purchase the “adventures.” We would explore the country ourselves. The adventures were great but very costly and we didn’t see as much as I think we could because it was all tourist attractions.
I would recommend this agent to my family and friends
Teresa Halsey Hollar responded:
It was a pleasure helping you travel to Costa Rica! First time travelers are always a little intimidated at first and then once they get there it's hey I can drive here. Look forward to helping you plan that next travel experience!
