The sheer number of travel options on the Internet
can be confusing and daunting, and many times the images on
the web don’t match reality. We have extensive
knowledge and years of personal experience traveling in, and
planning travel for others to Italy. Through a trusted and
reliable network of colleagues and insider contacts throughout
Italy we offer custom trip planning services that will be sure
to make your own trip unique and unforgettable!
Escorted Vacations are open to the public
(with an average group size of 14), are escorted by at least
one Dream Italia guide for the entire duration of the trip,
have a fixed itinerary, have a fixed price and leave on fixed
departure dates.
Private Vacations are the perfect way to
share and celebrate special occasions with friends and family. They
are equally ideally suited for special interest organizations
as well as corporate training and reward programs.
You can schedule your own dates on one of our regular trips
or let us create a unique trip tailored to your specific needs
and wishes.
Exclusive Portfolio Trips. The first option
is to take one of our past, present or future itineraries and
block it off for your group (or find a new date for the same
itinerary). Since we have already done the research and planning,
we are often able to offer these trips to your group at the brochure
price, depending on the size of your group, although substantive
changes to the existing itinerary that result in additional costs
will be added to the price of the trip.
Custom Trips. The second option is to work with
us to design a totally new trip. Since the research and planning
must all be done from scratch, these trips tend to be more expensive.
We will need to spend time, energy and resources in the development
of your itinerary. Since we will not be able to recoup any of
these costs, if you decide not to proceed with the trip, we generally
require a custom trip development fee of $650 before we begin
working on your proposed itinerary. This fee is refundable upon
trip completion or can be applied against the final balance.
Where to Travel. You can choose to go anywhere
you want and we will figure out the details on a custom trip
basis, but if you want the value and convenience of a portfolio
trip, then you have to choose one of our existing itineraries
or one of our past itineraries. While you should feel free
to visit our website to review our current itineraries, be
sure to contact us to explore our previous trips.
How Do I Get Started?
The first step is to fill out our confidential
Private Vacation Questionnaire. We need to know what your group’s
goals for the trip are. What experiences do you want to come
home with? And what places are on your "must
see" list? To get started on creating your own
Dream Italia vacation,
