  • Dan

    Honeymoon trip to Italy

    “Could we have planned a honeymoon like this? It would've taken us probably 40-50 hours to do all the research, but there was absolutely things we got to do that we wouldn't have thought of or had access to.”

  • Lynn

    Repeat Traveler

    “We had an amazing trip to Italy that would not have been possible without Francesco! Everything he planned for us was top notch. The support from him while in country was very responsive which really made the trip seamless. I highly recommend using Lonely Planet Journeys for any vacation. ”

  • Nick & Kaity

    13-day trip to Italy

    “From start to end, the trip was absolutely amazing. From the initial Zoom planning call, Elena took care of every question we had and planned a thoughtful itinerary that was tailored to exactly what we wanted to see and do in Italy. She was there to support us every step of the way during the trip.”

  • Anna

    13-day trip to Italy

    “Daniela booked us with several 10/10 experiences such as a bike ride tour throughout Tuscany, a day trip to Murano & Burano to see glass making and historic lace, and a true Bolognese cooking class...If you want true authentic experiences, I would recommend using Lonely Planet Journeys.”
