Intimate Journeys Through Authentic Italy
Ciao, I'm Nicole!
Welcome to the world of Italian adventures where the pasta is plentiful, gelato is a way of life, and every corner is steeped in history and charm.
The Italian Insider was born from my lifelong love affair with Italy. After 15 years of living and exploring its regions, culture, and cuisine, I wanted to share the Italy I know — the one beyond the guidebooks and large buses — where travelers connect with locals, savor authentic flavors, and experience the beauty of everyday Italian life.
Through small-group journeys and curated experiences, I help travelers slow down, soak it all in, and discover the true essence of la dolce vita.
Piacere! (Nice to meet you!)
LA MIA STORIA (MY STORY)

Experience Italy in a way most travelers never do.
Italy has a magic that speaks to everyone — and at The Italian Insider, we craft small-group experiences that let you feel it fully.
From iconic landmarks to hidden gems, from art and history to food, wine, and local traditions, every journey blends must-see sights with authentic, immersive moments. Thoughtfully curated and carefully paced, our tours invite you to connect deeply with Italy’s culture, cuisine, and people — creating memories that linger long after the trip ends.
Whether you’re sipping Barolo in Piedmont, wandering Tuscan hill towns, or uncovering Venice’s hidden corners, our trips are made to help you feel at home in Italy — like a local, not a tourist.
