About Us

Exclusively Italian - Travel by design is led by Laura Bianconcini, a native of Rome, Italy, who has lived in Italy most of her life. Laura has traveled extensively throughout Italy and wants to share with you a different style of travel. That is, travel at a relaxed pace where you truly appreciate every single moment of your journey.

We want you to discover the soul, the essence, the light and the shadow of different angles - an Italy with multiple perspectives. We want to show you the diversity that every destination has to offer: art and history, traditions, local crafts, food and wine, culture, life-style and close contact with the local people.

Our expertise comes from extensive research and experience. Our deep regional knowledge allows us to work by theme, organizing specific tours fully tailored to your passions.
