Carla: "You are always there, Marjorie! Like when our late-night flight from Naples was cancelled and you found us lovely hotel rooms and heavenly, midnight pizza and wine.”

Just after midnight in Naples: your table is set, your glass is poured, and your margherita has just been served.

This is what it means to travel with someone who truly knows Italy — and is always at your side. To learn more, visit www.insidersitaly.com

Still relevant. Still beloved. ✨

Just recently, a treasured client shared this note — along with the news that they’re returning, more than two decades later, to the same destinations, using the very same Plan:

“I just wanted to thank you and say: your work was wonderful then, and it's still relevant today.”

“I’ve planned over 20 trips around the world since then and always thought, Why can’t Marjorie plan beyond Italy? No one but you knows what room to request, what road to take, what gelato store to visit.”

“You’ve made a difference in people’s lives for 35 years. Thank you.”

Founded in 1989, Insider’s Italy is the original custom travel planning company for Italy — creating deeply personal journeys that stay with you, year after year. 🇮🇹

My grandparents first fell in love with Italy. That love has deepened with each generation.

Now, I share it with you—drawing from decades of knowledge, thousands of relationships, and a lifetime of exploration.

You won’t find an Insider’s Italy anywhere else. But you’ll feel it in every detail of my planning.

Sergio is a master cobbler who embraces the ‘Slow Foot’ philosophy: quality, repairability, and elegance. Using reclaimed leather, he handcrafts durable, high-quality shoes of enormous beauty. In his hand, a traditional red slipper that will be worn by one of the young pages who parades in the Palio. To learn more, visit www.insidersitaly.com

The sfusato amalfitano is a unique lemon that has long flourished on the Amalfi Coast: large, tapered, fragrant, and considered by many to be the finest in the world. 🍋 Grown on steep terraces since the 11th century, it's harvested by hand in a tradition unchanged for centuries.

Insider’s Italy trips include immersive lemon-themed experiences: visits to organic lemon estates to meet the farmers and explore their orchards; private limoncello-making classes; and in-house cooking lessons where sfusato lemons take center stage. You'll also enjoy unforgettable dinners with local producers, where every dish features this extraordinary citrus, and you feast beneath the lemons themselves. 🍋🇮🇹

A tart like this doesn’t come from just any bakery.

It is from a family-run pasticceria in my Roman neighborhood — made by pastry artisans I’ve known for 36 years. The wild strawberries on top? Grown nearby, in the countryside just outside Rome. Tiny, intense and impossibly fragrant — a seasonal specialty during the month of June.

Our clients visit this pasticceria regularly. Of course they do. They’re Insider’s Italy travelers — discovering a Rome that few others ever do. To learn more, visit www.insidersitaly.com
