ABOUT US

Founded in 2012 by Enrico, our travel agency is a local, independent team deeply connected to the places where we live and work. What began as a passion for the sea and the wild beauty of the Cinque Terre has grown into a project dedicated to authentic and responsible travel experiences.

We believe in slow travel, small groups, and real encounters with nature, culture, and local communities. Over the years, friends and trusted collaborators have joined the journey: Daniele, our logistics expert; Giuliano, environmental guide and sea kayak specialist; Paolo and Patrizia, our kayak guides; and Andrea, our legendary mountain guide leading walking trips across the Alps, the Prealps, and Switzerland.

Client Testimonial

Adventure Talks

You couldn’t ask for a better trip leader and guide than Enrico. We’ve been on four kayaking/hiking trips with him, with a fifth one to come this year. Each one has been amazing – fascinating, fun, delicious.
We love that Enrico’s trips take us to extraordinary places, off the beaten travel paths. He has deep, first-hand knowledge of whatever region we’re visiting – and his trips give us the opportunity to learn about both the ecosystems and the people – their traditions, culture, food, and wine. With Enrico, you eat and drink in places that residents go, tasting specialties of that particular area.
And, happily, he always has a fantastic backup plan in case the weather (or other unexpected event) threatens to derail a day’s  itinerary.
Gregarious, enthusiastic, and a great communicator, with an eye out for everyone: We always know we’re in great hands.
