Thoughtfully hosted journeys through regional Italy
Our tours are designed around people, not checklists. We spend time in places where everyday life revolves around shared meals, local traditions, and strong communities.
Itineraries are thoughtfuly planned but have room for spontanaiety. Focusing on being present, enjoying where we are, and experiencing Italy as something you’re part of, not passing through, is the Untold Italy way.
From Shared Stories to Unforgettable Journeys
It all started with a podcast and a passion for sharing the real Italy, its people and discovering Italian culture through the voices of locals, artisans, and guides.
As listeners dreamed of experiencing those same connections in person, our tours came to life – intimate hosted journeys built around friendship, food, and the beauty of everyday Italian life.
Each Untold Italy tours experience is a continuation of those stories, shared together in the places and with the people who inspired them.
On tour our warm friendly hosts bring the spirit of Italy to life, guiding groups to build friendships that last many years and span continents.
