FALL IN LOVE With ITALY

One of the most romantic places on earth!
It will capture your heart and soul and never let go.

Every day is full of beauty, history, culture, art, fashion and food and a thousand different ways to appreciate it all.

SINCE 2009

Deb Taylor, founder of Ciao Italy, has been creating tours from the dazzling Dolomites to sun-kissed Sicily to show you Italy through the eyes of a local.

SMALL GROUPS

No more than twelve ensures life changing adventures and deep connections with places, people and the daily rituals of Italian life.

PLACES LESS EXPLORED

Three days everywhere to ensure there is time to experience and savour every town, every meal, every new friend you’re going to make in Italy.

This is the Italy I have loved from day one.

This is the Italy I can’t wait to share with all those who travel with me. Unforgettable travel is about experiences, not ticking off destinations. It’s about embracing local culture and traditions and stepping out of your comfort zone. It’s about being open and spontaneous and total immersion into a way of life that may not be familiar.

Enthusiasm was contagious

“What an incredible holiday you created for us. Your delightful enthusiasm was contagious! I could never have found all the beautiful walks in stunning out of the way places that you took us on. So much fun. Best holiday ever!”

Carolyn McKinlay

Laughter & Fun

“Loved your quirkiness and sense of adventure. Every day was filled with delightfully unexpected morsels of great food, laughter and FUN! The walks were sensational and challenging and I loved every minute!! Thanks, Deb, for helping me to fall in love with Italy all over again.”

Sandy Carlson

Appeal to individual interests

Discover Italy like a local. That’s the experience you get on Deb’s tours. The small group is perfect for eating at hidden cafes and bars known only to locals and seeing places you’d never find on your own. We loved the flexibility of options every day to appeal to individual interests. Two tours so far with Deb and we’re keen to go again.

Only seen by locals

Deb’s passion and enthusiasm for all things Italian means everyone in her small groups, either seasoned or first time novices, receive an amazingly well researched experience in Italy. Deb loves ‘the scene behind the scenes” and introduces her travellers to places in Italy generally only seen by locals. Our first tour was in 2019 and we have done seven more since, even repeating two of the tours!

Didn’t want it to end

We have loved it all – from the Tuscany tour in 2022, Sicily in 2023, Amalfi Coast in 2024 and the Dolomites in 2025! You have done an incredible job with the Dolomites tour. We didn’t want it to end and are tempted to go again next year. Everything was perfect from the accommodation to the food to the stunning scenery.

So much more than I imagined

Deb, I had the best time! You are professional, passionate, energetic and devoted to what you do. I cannot put into words how much I loved every single minute, experienced so much more than I imagined – memories and photos forever. You truly are amazing!
