I am recommending this operator and Chiara in particular, she shepherded me through many times, as an Australian not so famiiar with travel in Europe. Thank-you for connecting me with the operator, it was the best overseas experience hat I have had with respect to the design and support of a plan to explore a country.

As the pioneers of responsible tourism, we've screened this (and every) vacation so that you can travel knowing we've worked to maximise the benefits of your vacation to local people and places, and minimise any negative impacts.
Planet
We include destinations where travelers can experience local initiatives related to mobility and the natural environment.For example, Perugia has an automated rail system with traction rope, providing an alternative way to travel within the city as part of its urban mobility system.
We select our accommodation with a preference for properties with a historic background.
These may include castles, historic residences and former farm buildings that have been converted into tourist accommodation. The properties are located in a variety of settings, including the countryside, villages and towns.
Maintaining historic buildings can require specialised materials and restoration work that respects their original features. The owners of these properties are responsible for their ongoing maintenance and restoration, including sourcing suitable materials and carrying out work that preserves the character of the buildings.
People
We are a local tour operator and establish partnerships with small local businesses, including artisans and producers of traditional products.During the tour, travelers have the opportunity to visit artisans and local producers in Umbria and learn about traditional crafts, food and wine production.
Traditional Italian foods have strong links to local agricultural production areas. The itinerary includes visits to small-scale food and wine producers, where travelers can discover local products and learn more about their production.
Travelers can also buy local products directly from the places they visit.
On request, we provide a list of restaurants and shops selling typical local products. We can also arrange meals at selected restaurants, giving travelers the opportunity to experience traditional local dishes prepared with locally sourced ingredients.
