Giulia Bonati
Italia is my country and the destination I have professionally specialized in. I love to help people to discover it. Travelers will visit Italy while living deeply the local culture through special activities such as: a local market visit followed by a cooking class, a Ferrari test drive, a Gourmet Ski Tour, the hidden Venice lagoon…and these are only few examples! My mission is to make a travel experience unique and authentic, through customization: fitting interests, time and budget.
I offer the professional experience acquired over many years of planning trips within Italy, combined with my strong passion for traveling and an insider local knowledge.
A customized travel experience creates memories to last a lifetime!
What places and activities do you specialize in?
"Places: everywhere in Italy , special tours in Venice
Activities: Tailor made travels and selected one-day tours/experiences. I love to suggest some special experiences that make the trip in Italy unique and unforgettable. I love gourmet&wine tours and other authentic experiences with the locals (ski tours on the Dolomites, hidden Venice lagoon tours, and many others) : through them I think that you can go deeply inside our Italian culture. "
How did you get involved in travel?
"I’m a passionate traveler, loving the diversity that different cultures offer.
I graduated in Tourism with an awarded final dissertation in Destination Management.
I also lived in UK and in Hong Kong."
Please share a unique travel experience you will never forget.
"Honestly, I will never forget any travel! Anyway, during my first long trip in Brasil (I was 15 yrs old), I understand that "authentic" travels are my passion. It was the first time that I saw how different landascapes and different cultures made me so curious and interested. I met local people and tried to speak to them, to taste their food, to know their habits : I opened my mind for the first time and now that's the same for every travel!"
