Every journey is adapted to the traveller, drawing on our first-hand knowledge of <strong>Sicily, Sardinia, Puglia, Tuscany and Greece<\/strong>.<\/p>\n                <\/div>\n            <\/div>\n                    <div class=\"faq-item\">\n                <div class=\"faq-pregunta\">\n                    ARE YOUR TRIPS FULLY TAILOR-MADE OR BASED ON STANDARD ITINERARIES?                    <i class=\"faq-icono\">+<\/i>\n                <\/div>\n                <div class=\"faq-respuesta\">\n                    <p data-start=\"5955\" data-end=\"6008\">All our journeys are <strong data-start=\"5981\" data-end=\"6007\">fully tailor-made.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p data-start=\"6010\" data-end=\"6187\">We don\u2019t work with fixed programmes or pre-designed packages. Every itinerary is created from scratch, based on your travel style, your interests and the time you have available.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"6189\" data-end=\"6386\">Of course, our experience allows us to suggest routes and ideas that have proven to work well, but these are always <strong data-start=\"6308\" data-end=\"6328\">adapted and refined for each traveller<\/strong>. No two journeys are exactly the same.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"6388\" data-end=\"6603\">This approach gives you the flexibility to shape the trip around what matters most to you \u2014 whether that means a slower pace, specific locations, particular types of accommodation or selected experiences along the way.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"6605\" data-end=\"6749\">In the end, the goal is not to fit you into an itinerary, but to <strong data-start=\"6666\" data-end=\"6710\">design an itinerary that fits you.<\/strong><\/p>\n                <\/div>\n            <\/div>\n                    <div class=\"faq-item\">\n                <div class=\"faq-pregunta\">\n                    WHAT TYPE OF ACCOMMODATIONS DO YOU WORK WITH?                    <i class=\"faq-icono\">+<\/i>\n                <\/div>\n                <div class=\"faq-respuesta\">\n                    <p data-start=\"9267\" data-end=\"9395\">We primarily work with boutique hotels, small historic properties and charming independent stays.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"9397\" data-end=\"9670\">These are places with a strong sense of identity \u2014 where architecture, atmosphere and local hospitality reflect the character of the destination. Rather than large resorts or standardised hotels, we look for accommodations that feel authentic, personal and connected to their surroundings.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"9672\" data-end=\"9868\">Depending on the journey, this can include countryside estates, agriturismi, coastal hideaways or small town hotels, always selected for their quality, location and overall experience.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"9870\" data-end=\"10073\">Our goal is not simply to provide a place to stay, but to ensure that each accommodation <strong data-start=\"9989\" data-end=\"10032\">becomes a natural and meaningful part of the journey.<\/strong><\/p>\n                <\/div>\n            <\/div>\n                    <div class=\"faq-item\">\n                <div class=\"faq-pregunta\">\n                    HOW DOES THE BOOKING PROCESS WORK?                    <i class=\"faq-icono\">+<\/i>\n                <\/div>\n                <div class=\"faq-respuesta\">\n                    <p data-start=\"11137\" data-end=\"11189\">The planning and booking process is straightforward, with\u00a0<strong>our team supporting you at every stage<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"11191\" data-end=\"11473\">It usually starts with a first contact, where we learn about your travel plans, preferences and timing. Based on this, we prepare a <strong data-start=\"11349\" data-end=\"11371\">tailor-made proposal<\/strong>, including a suggested route, selected accommodations and any experiences you may wish to include.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"11475\" data-end=\"11782\">Once the proposal is ready, you will receive it in a <strong data-start=\"11532\" data-end=\"11554\">digital itinerary format<\/strong>, accessible through a private link. This allows you to explore your journey in a clear and structured way \u2014 including the route, accommodations, experiences and practical details \u2014 all in one place, at your own pace.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"11784\" data-end=\"12048\">You can review the proposal and we refine it together until everything feels right \u2014 in terms of itinerary, style and overall experience. When you are ready to proceed, you can confirm the trip by completing a short booking form directly within the itinerary.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"12050\" data-end=\"12208\">Once confirmed, we take care of all the arrangements. Before departure, you will receive all the necessary documents and practical information for your trip.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"12210\" data-end=\"12390\">Throughout the process, you are supported by <strong data-start=\"12246\" data-end=\"12265\">one dedicated team<\/strong>, ensuring clarity, continuity and a smooth experience from start to finish.<\/p>\n                <\/div>\n            <\/div>\n                    <div class=\"faq-item\">\n                <div class=\"faq-pregunta\">\n                    WHAT IS INCLUDED IN THE CAR RENTAL AND INSURANCE?                    <i class=\"faq-icono\">+<\/i>\n                <\/div>\n                <div class=\"faq-respuesta\">\n                    <p data-start=\"16280\" data-end=\"16378\">Our car rentals are designed to offer <strong data-start=\"16337\" data-end=\"16377\">maximum peace of mind and simplicity.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p data-start=\"16380\" data-end=\"16646\">They typically include <strong data-start=\"16404\" data-end=\"16438\">comprehensive insurance with no excess<\/strong>, so you can travel without worrying about unexpected costs in case of damage. We also include practical elements such as an additional driver and clear, straightforward conditions whenever possible.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"16648\" data-end=\"16817\">Our aim is to avoid the complexity often associated with car rentals, ensuring that everything is easy to understand, well covered and adapted to the journey.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"16819\" data-end=\"16995\">Full details are always provided in your travel documents, so you know exactly what is included before you travel.<\/p>\n                <\/div>\n            <\/div>\n                    <div class=\"faq-item\">\n                <div class=\"faq-pregunta\">\n                    WHAT ARE YOUR PAYMENT AND CANCELLATION CONDITIONS?                    <i class=\"faq-icono\">+<\/i>\n                <\/div>\n                <div class=\"faq-respuesta\">\n                    <p data-start=\"17061\" data-end=\"17152\">Our booking conditions are designed to be clear, transparent and fair.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"17154\" data-end=\"17404\">Once your journey is confirmed, we typically require a deposit to secure the arrangements, with the balance due closer to the departure date. The exact details are always shared with you in advance, so you know exactly what to expect at each stage.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"17406\" data-end=\"17615\">In terms of cancellations, conditions may vary depending on the services included in your itinerary, as many of the accommodations and providers we work with have their own policies.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"17617\" data-end=\"17753\">For this reason, we always explain the applicable terms clearly before confirmation, so you can make your decision with full confidence<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"17755\" data-end=\"17916\">We also recommend considering <strong data-start=\"17787\" data-end=\"17806\">travel insurance<\/strong>, which can provide additional protection in case of unforeseen changes.<\/p>\n                <\/div>\n            <\/div>\n                    <div class=\"faq-item\">\n                <div class=\"faq-pregunta\">\n                    DO YOU PROVIDE TRAVEL INSURANCE?                    <i class=\"faq-icono\">+<\/i>\n                <\/div>\n                <div class=\"faq-respuesta\">\n                    <p data-start=\"18537\" data-end=\"18602\">Yes \u2014 we can include <strong data-start=\"18557\" data-end=\"18576\">travel insurance<\/strong> in your trip if you wish.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"18604\" data-end=\"18761\">We usually offer comprehensive policies covering both <strong data-start=\"18664\" data-end=\"18685\">medical assistance<\/strong> and <strong data-start=\"18694\" data-end=\"18709\">cancellation<\/strong>, tailored to the type of journey you are planning.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"18763\" data-end=\"18939\">We work with trusted providers such as <strong data-start=\"18808\" data-end=\"18815\">AXA<\/strong>, and occasionally others, selecting options that offer a good balance of coverage, flexibility and price.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"18941\" data-end=\"19260\">As with any insurance, it is important to review the policy conditions carefully, as specific terms and exclusions may apply.
