Wouldn't you love to plan a trip to beautiful Italy where a good friend listens to exactly what you want to do and where you want to go?
Then this good friend has the insider knowledge on a great villa for a three day stay, the best ristorantes to check out, that out-of-the-way vineyard in Tuscany where you can also stay for dinner, and can superbly get you from place to place with comfort and style?
All in your price-range requirements?
This is your custom trip to Italy and we are the good friends who can get you there!
We are trip designers, the new frontier in travel.
It is a little different than what most people are used to, so let's dive into exactly what this means.
Travel agents work solely on commissions. We do not.
Travel agents mostly do not get you off the beaten path, cannot get you into privately owned villas, or recommend that great winery, because they do not make commissions on that type of travel.
As trip designers, you simply pay us a fee and we work with you to get that trip of a lifetime.
Maybe you're planning a bucket list trip, a trip of a lifetime, a honeymoon, or a family celebration trip?
We are here to help.

“We could not have planned our trip without Patricia and The Olive Odysseys.
Her intimate knowledge of Italy allowed us to explore the most authentic and beautiful parts of the country,
while also hitting the must-see tourist sites.
With her detailed planning, we were left to focus all of our energy on sipping Aperol Spritz,
enjoying the stunning art and architecture, and learning how to make homemade ravioli."

"After reading several guide books and posting on some online forums,
I was even more confused than when I started!
I began to see the enormity of what I was attempting to put together a trip
for myself and my family. Patricia stepped in and we got our dream trip!"
