Old World Italy! A time when life was a bit simpler, a lot slower and so full of promise. Do you have visions of lush, green countryside, dotted with wildflowers, vineyards and olive trees? Can you imagine the special varietals of wines paired with delightful dishes made with just- picked freshness? Italian Excursion will escort you for a week or more to the Italian countryside, off the beaten path in comfort and style. You will visit hidden iconic jewels of Italy in out of the way destinations, unique in character and atmosphere. Old World Italian life is still available when you leave the hustle and bustle of the city. We support the small artisan producers and their quest for sustainability.
It is common knowledge that travel educates the mind and soul. We also believe that the sort of travel you will experience on an Italian Excursion tour is a way to peace and understanding in a more global sense. See our photo gallery for some stunning photos of past tours. Use your creative side to enjoy Italy at its best. Italian Excursion offers small group tours that are not just memorable, but full of life, creativity and authenticity.

Civita d’ Bagnoregio
The best gelato I ever had was in Tio Leo’s Trattoria in Lucca. (this trattoria may not be there after 20 years) Lemon sorbet with fresh sage leaves blended in. OMG, the best way to end a great meal. |

Cheryl Alexander has been traveling to Europe, particularly Italy, for more than 20 years . Her interest in Italy, its rich history, art and culture led her to purchase property near Orvieto, allowing her to spend more time there. Cheryl’s exploration of Italy include the regions of Tuscany, Umbria and Lazio, as well as the Casentino (in less traveled Tuscany) and southeast to Puglia. Her numerous trips to Italy have resulted in many friendships with the locals living in the area who are generous in sharing the region’s hidden treasures with her. She continues to explore Italy’s less traveled regions, and enjoys sharing her discoveries with others.
