For journeys that linger
Whether you’re considering a small group tour, dreaming up a trip of your own, or feeling unsure where to begin, you’re in the right place.
Below are a few ways I help travellers turn ideas into trips that feel personal, unhurried, and well thought through. You’re welcome to explore, and if you’re not sure which option fits, that’s completely fine too.
Small Group Tours
Small groups. Carefully placed trips.
A small group tour with Lento Studio is designed for travellers who want to experience Italy more deeply, without rushing or crowds. Groups are intentionally kept small, with a pace that allows time to settle in, connect, and travel well.
Each journey is hosted by me and shaped by real time spent in the region, with enough structure to feel supported, and enough space to explore at your own rhythm.
The experience
Lento Studio group tours focus on one region, season, or theme at a time. Rather than moving constantly, you’ll stay longer in fewer places, giving the trip a grounded, unhurried feel.
Think olive harvests in Puglia, seaside stays in Sardinia, or countryside dinners that stretch into the evening - experiences shaped by place, not a packed schedule.
Every group tour includes:
-
Thoughtfully chosen accommodation with character
-
A small group of like-minded travellers
-
Local guides, artisans, and food experiences
-
Time to explore, rest, and take it all in
-
A Lento Studio host to handle logistics and provide support throughout
Future trips, waitlists, and early access will be shared as they are released.
Tailored Itineraries
A custom journey, shaped around you.
I design tailored itineraries for travellers who want a trip that reflects their interests, timing, and way of travelling. From rural stays to coastal escapes and thoughtful city time, each journey is planned with care and shaped around your pace, budget, and priorities.
I take care of the research, structure, and recommendations, creating an itinerary that feels considered and easy to follow, without over‑planning.
What's included?
Planning a trip to Italy can feel complex, especially if you’re trying to balance time, logistics, and personal interests. I help you make sense of those decisions and shape them into a clear, well‑paced plan.
Each itinerary includes:
-
A pre‑trip questionnaire to understand your travel style and priorities
-
A check‑in call to talk through ideas, questions, and timing
-
A custom day‑by‑day itinerary with activities, food suggestions, and experiences
-
Accommodation recommendations and booking links (you book directly)
-
A designed PDF version of your itinerary, ready to take with you
This is a thoughtful plan rooted in real experience and shaped specifically for your trip.
Consultation Calls
Expert guidance, without a full itinerary.
Consultation calls are designed for travellers who want help thinking things through. If you’re feeling unsure about where to go, how long to stay, or whether your plans make sense, this is a chance to talk it through one‑on‑one.
These calls are shaped around your questions, whether you’re at the very beginning or refining an itinerary you’ve already started.
How they work
You might be deciding between regions, checking the pace of your plans, or looking for reassurance before booking. Consultation calls offer space to ask questions, get clarity, and work through your ideas with someone who knows Italy well.
Each consultation includes:
-
A 45‑minute video call tailored to your needs
-
Follow‑up notes with suggestions, links, or adjustments to your plans
-
The option to apply the call fee towards a full itinerary, should you wish to continue
This option suits independent travellers who value insight and guidance, without committing to full trip planning.
Destination Guides
A slower way to explore.
Destination guides are designed for travellers who want the insight of Lento Studio without a full custom itinerary. They’re ideal if you prefer to plan independently, but value thoughtful direction grounded in local knowledge and pace.
Each guide offers a clear, considered approach to exploring a region, helping you travel with confidence, curiosity, and your own sense of rhythm.
Inside the guides
These guides are designed to be practical and grounding, whether you’re still shaping ideas or already on the ground.
Each guide includes:
-
Regional highlights alongside lesser‑known areas
-
Food, wine, and cultural recommendations
-
Practical details to support your planning
-
Suggestions shaped by slow, intentional travel
The aim is not to see more, but to see more deeply.
