Local guides
The Italy on a Budget tour leaders are most of them raised and born in Italy for you to have the real Italian experience but don't worry, they are all fully fluent in English!
The aim of the group leader is to help you have the best trip possible. Your leader takes care of logistics, will provide information on the places you are travelling through, offer suggestions for things to do and see and recommend great local eating venues. While not being guides in the traditional sense, you can expect them to have a broad general knowledge of the places visited on the trip, including historical, cultural and social aspects.
If you are interested in delving deeper into the historical facts at a specific site or location, we can recommend optional licensed local guide services in most of the main destinations of your trip. Just get in touch with us!
Your tour leaders and the composition of your group may change in certain days as the groups are small and we want to make sure you can meet as many new fellow travellers as possible.
